PARIS (September 21, 2021) – Pokmi, the first – up and running – decentralized adult content platform based on blockchain technology and NFTs (with over 60000 beta active members), today announced an exclusive partnership with the adult superstar Maitland Ward to celebrate the launch of the V1 version of its platform (app.pokmi.com).

“This partnership is an incredible opportunity for us to join forces with Maitland to prove that technologies like blockchain and NFTs are an innovative and powerful way to protect youth from content that is not intended for them, to protect the works and income of adult content creators and to guarantee all of this by a currency (the Poken or $PKN”) dedicated to those missions” – agree to say Marco Garniga and Nils Lataillade – Co-founders and Co-CEOs of Pokmi.

Maitland Ward discusses the new opportunity. “I’m super excited for my new exclusive partnership with Pokmi! Over the last year I have been offered several deals from various NFT companies to join the amazing opportunities in the crypto market space. Pokmi is without question leading the way with its platform and company vision. It has a flawless business plan, and was a no-brainer for me to join forces with them. Today is such an exciting day for the launch of its NFT platform. The creative and financial possibilities are endless. Today we celebrate its first official trading listing on the blockchain exchanges and together we intend to deliver exclusive adult content to the global market with a platinum approach to quality and exclusivity”

Pokmi’s reasons for being is to provide a fairer, more transparent and ethical model for content creators by putting them back at the center of the economic equation, to transform the world of adult content through the latest technologies and innovations. To guarantee to 18+ – and only to them – a unique, secure and authentic quality content experience through Blockchain technology. To promote ethical, inclusive and educational values, supported by its partners and Ambassadors and leverage AI and machine learning tools to solve systemic problems in its market.

Fans and collectors can be delighted, Maitland will upload each month and this from Tuesday, September 21, the $PKN listing day, unique NFTs and unlockable content from her own imagination.

According to Wikipedia, a non-fungible token (NFT) is a unit of data stored on a digital ledger, called a blockchain, that certifies a digital asset to be unique and therefore not interchangeable. NFTs can be used to represent items such as photos, videos, audio, and other types of digital files. Access to any copy of the original file, however, is not restricted to the buyer of the NFT. While copies of these digital items are available for anyone to obtain, NFTs are tracked on blockchains to provide the owner with a proof of ownership that is separate from copyright. The NFT market value tripled in 2020, reaching more than $250 million. During the first quarter of 2021, NFT sales exceeded $2 billion.

Founded in May 2021, by 2 A+ entrepreneurs driven by a passion for hyper growth: Nils Lataillade & Marco Garniga and accompanied by an adult industry legend: Fred Coppula.  Pokmi’s ambition is to transform the world of adult content towards more ethics, transparency and fairness for both creators and consumers, thanks to Blockchain technology and NFTs or non-Fungible Tokens (renamed NFPs – contraction of token and Poken). Pokmi is its first adult content platform accessible via NFPs. In the summer of 2021, the company closed a first ICO of $10.7M, by selling nearly $1.5 billion of $PKN, a crypto-currency specifically designed by Pokmi to – eventually – become the sustainable funding vehicle for the adult content industry.

Southern California-born and bred Maitland Ward has quickly become one of the biggest stars in adult entertainment, after an-already successful career as an American model, actress and cosplay personality. The star, who joined the cast of Bold and the Beautiful as a teen and found fame as Rachel McGuire on the beloved ABC sitcom Boy Meets World, jumped headfirst into shooting adult films in 2019 without much persuasion.

The statuesque (5’10”) all-natural redhead is unique in that not only is she beautiful and built for the adult biz, Ward’s talent as an actress means she can also carry dramatic and comedic scenes with ease. Her playful energy, professionalism and open sexuality earned her an exclusive performance contract with worldwide brand Vixen Media Group; in 2020, Ward won three AVN Awards for Best Supporting Actress and Best Three-Way Sex Scene-G/G/B for her work in Deeper mega-hit feature Drive, as well as Favorite Camming Cosplayer. Ward was the unanimous all-around best actress award winner in 2021, taking home multiple awards for Deeper’s Muse. Ward also took home the AVN Best Boy/Girl Sex Scene for Higher Power.  Ward has won multiple XBIZ awards, which include Best Actress for Drive, Best Sex Scene for Drive, Best Actress for Muse, Best Feature Sex Scene for Muse and was awarded the XBIZ 2020 Crossover Star of The Year.
