Pokmi

Pokmi, operating under The Poken Company, was established in May 2021 by co-founders Marco Gargniga, Nils Lataillade, and award-winning producer Fred Coppula. The Paris-based firm aims to address the adult content industry by leveraging blockchain technology to create a more transparent and equitable ecosystem for creators and users. In the summer of 2021, the company successfully raised $10.7 million through an Initial Coin Offering (ICO) of its native cryptocurrency, the Poken ($PKN), attracting over 80,000 users.

The company operates an uncensored NFT marketplace and streaming platform specifically for adult content. This decentralized platform allows creators to monetize their work through various channels, including the sale of NFTs, subscriptions, and tips, while utilizing a flat-fee structure to avoid hidden charges. For users, the platform offers access to exclusive content and incorporates a "Watch to Earn" feature. Revenue is generated through these transactions on the platform, all powered by the Poken ($PKN) token, which is built on the Ethereum blockchain. The platform also implements a mandatory Yoti age verification process to prevent access by minors.

Pokmi's core service is its NFT marketplace, which provides the financial, technological, and legal infrastructure for adult content creators. Users can buy, sell, and lease NFTs, which can vary in value based on factors like creator notoriety and rarity. The firm has collaborated with prominent figures in the adult entertainment industry to launch exclusive NFT collections, such as the "Metabella" collection with Abella Danger. These NFTs can also grant owners access to virtual wearables and events within metaverse platforms like Decentraland and The Sandbox.
