“The DUFF” star Bella Thorne has inadvertently provoked the wrath of sex after amassing $2 million in just one week on the Website OnlyFans, a popular destination for porn stars and their fans.
Immediately after the client actress’ unexpected monetary gain, the website, which allows users to monetize direct connections with subscribers, reduced monetization limits for content creators and delayed invoices to 21 days (was 7 days) for those in some countries (Belize, Dominican Republic, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, India, Jamaica, Kenya , Mexico, Morocco, Panama, Turkey, Uruguay and Venezuela).
These adjustments to terms of service are a big deal for sex workers, especially abroad, as there’s a lot of money at stake here.Siri Dahl, one of the highest-paid adult film actresses on OnlyFans, told TheWrap that “75-80%” of her source of income comes from running on the website.
Dahl, who was founded in the United States, also told us that OnlyFans, and discreetly, replaced its terms and conditions, which is scary for those in his area.
“There’s anxiety that comes with relying on OnlyFans,” Dahl said.

Double that tension for employees, he says.
Dahl knows what he’s talking about: the porn star once known as “Siri” ranks 0.36% higher than OnlyFans’ income, he told us.(Dahl assumed thorne would be in the most sensible 0.1% or even the most sensible 0.01%.)
“I will have genuine nightmares that they stopped allowing sexual staff to use the platform, for example,” Dahl said.”As if I had to go straight to censorship.”

Since OnlyFans is for sex workers, dating works either way.
“We are,” Dahl said when asked how important the paintings of her and her peers were on the platform.”OnlyFans would not exist (without sex painters).”
However, Dahl says the platform publicly accepts this truth and trust.
“The platform was built largely through sexual staff, popularized through sexual staff, but OnlyFans never brazenly stated that this platform serves mainly sexual staff and their fans,” Dahl said.”If you take a look at their corporate documents, everyone continues to provide this symbol of office protection, not even what it’s known for.It’s this strange disconnection.”
When we asked OnlyFans what part of their activity comes from sex workers, a spokeswoman refused to percentage of this information, saying, “OnlyFans is a personal enterprise and refuses the source of percentage of income information.

OnlyFans gets 20% of a content creator’s revenue, the spokeswoman said, which would mean making $400,000 from Thorne’s unexpected profit.
Although this dollar amount is typical, Dahl says “many other people” earn “tens of thousands of dollars a week and more.”
Deferred payment of 21 days is not made by Dahl or others in the United States.
“This is a continuous and active threat-based assessment, conducted from one country to another,” OnlyFans’ representative told TheWrap.”We constantly monitor our transaction knowledge and threat modeling.Any replacement on our limits is taking into account many other factors.The vast majority of invoices made in OnlyFans are not affected by those recent replacements ».
Revised bills are another story for those in the states (and beyond).
Under the new rules, the new maximum for pay-per-view publications is $50 to $200 on accounts with no subscription fees.
“This update affects loose accounts,” OnlyFans told TheWrap.”Because the maximum subscription value is $50 per month, this puts you in line with the rest of The Creators of OnlyFans.Note that single accounts make up a very small percentage of Accounts in OnlyFans..»
Dahl’s subscription is $6.99 per month and estimates that about 50% of his OnlyFans earnings come from fan subscriptions.Content creators can set their subscriptions to be released or between $4.99 per month and $50 per month.
The new maximum in paid personal messages/media is $100, reduced to half of the last $200.Dahl says he earns about 40% of his OnlyFans revenue stream in this way.
In terms of tipping, which is the third way a content author can earn cash with OnlyFans, the new maximum tip an author can get is $100 until they have been active on the site for 4 months.After 4 months, the maximum increases to $200, which was the previous restriction for all content authors.
“We are creating a more dynamic formula that analyzes the author and the fan to determine certain limits,” the OnlyFans representative told us.”This is an evolutionary procedure that has an effect on a small percentage of accounts designed to make some payment coverage for content authors and users and will continue to review and evaluate.”
“Limiting the tip amount to $100 is notoriously problematic for many people,” Dahl said.
However, Dahl does not expect relief from giving him a maximum tip “greatly”.
“I haven’t structured the way I sell my content on OnlyFans and I don’t really depend on people’s great recommendation,” Dahl said.”It’s rare for you to get them in the first place. But I know there are women who depend on that, and that would do them a lot.
Dahl, who also earns cash through traditional paintings (a minimum of $300 that can easily rise to thousands of dollars, says, “depending on what the user wants”) that he sells elsewhere, estimates that only 10% of his OnlyFans source of income comes from tips.
OnlyFans last week denied that payment adjustments and new highs were similar to Thorne’s participation in the platform.
“Transaction limits are set to help avoid overspending and allow our users to continue to use the site securely,” the company said in a supply to TheWrap.”We appreciate all the feedback we’ve earned since implementing this replacement and will continue to review those limits.Our purpose remains to provide the most productive imaginable platform for the OnlyFans community.We can verify that adjustments to transaction limits are not based on any user.»
Don’t buy those last words.
“I think it’s very appealing that those adjustments match that Bella Thorne makes millions of dollars on the platform,” Dahl said.
So are we, if we’re honest.
Thorne made headlines last week when she was the first designer to earn $1 million in 24 hours by charging her enthusiasts a subscription fee of $20 a month.
Former Disney Channel star reportedly presented a $200 photo to subscribers to her PG-13 account in a different way with the promise of nudity; however, this has not been proven and Thorne told the Los Angeles Times last week that he had never presented nude content on his OnlyFans page and that the screenshot of the exchange in which he promised the photo “no nude clothes” was forged.
Neither OnlyFans nor Thorne responded to TheWrap’s request to comment on the alleged set.
Since then, Thorne has publicly apologized for the use of the platform.
“It eliminates the stigma of sex, sex paintings and the negativity surrounding the word SEX by incorporating a conventional face,” the actress wrote on Twitter.”That’s what I was looking to do: help to attract more faces to the site in order to generate more profit for content creators on the site.”
She continued: “Then I sought to draw attention to the site, the more people there were on the site, the more likely it was to normalize the stigma, and looking to do that, I hurt you.I’ve risked my career”.several times to eliminate the stigma of sex work, pornography and herbal hatred that other people spit out anything similar to sex.I wrote and directed a pornography opposite the upper eyebrows of my colleagues and managers because I WANTED to help combat sexual stigma.
Thorne has ventured into adult entertainment in the past, participating with Pornhub to direct the adult film “Her
Thorne is just the most recent top-profile author to launch a OnlyFans page that doesn’t involve nudity.Cardi B announced the creation of its own page earlier this month, promising a behind-the-scenes look at the realization of its single “WAP” that tops the charts.
With millions of dollars at stake, if OnlyFans is so imperfect (Dahl also told us it was “glitch,” among other reviews), the million-dollar query is: why stay on the platform?
Well, that’s the only option, at least it’s the only one very often, even though there are amazing substitutes.
The av competitor AVN Stars is “in each and every aspect bigger than OnlyFans”, according to Dahl, however, it has not been followed by users.
This has a public awareness problem, and Dahl believes his current consumers are more comfortable with OnlyFans.In the adult sector, it is not easy to convince users to entrust their credit card data to a lesser-known website.Confidentiality is paramount when you pay to see personal parts.
In addition, moving from one platform to another is simply a “annoyance,” Dahl said.
And who wants those days more?
Dahl first went through “Siri” before taking a break in the porn industry in 2015.It debuted in June 2011, just a few months before the release of the iPhone with Siri.
Last month, Dahl added the surname for two main reasons: “To make my paintings show more search effects for a robot voice and to differentiate my new paintings from my pre-2015 paintings.”
Between his launch in 2015 and his comeback in 2019, Dahl started with weightlifting and has been competing for two years.
