OnlyFans is seeking to sell UFC boxing champion intends to acquire in order to continue to be astringent
The onlyFans platform, which allows ordinary users to obtain creative income through "adult content", has reported sales news. As countries increasingly strict supervision of adult content, the platform with a valuation of about US$14.6-24.2 billion is facing development difficulties, and UFC famous player Connor McGregor has expressed his intention to acquire it on social media.
As a paid subscription community platform, OnlyFans' biggest feature is that it allows adult content creation within the legal scope (illegal behavior involving drugs, violence, children, etc. is prohibited), attracting a large number of users around the world and indeed allowing many creators to obtain considerable income.
The main reason why platform founder Leonid Radwinsky considered selling is that the nature of adult content limits the space for commercial development. The increasingly strict regulatory policies of various countries, such as some financial institutions banning related transactions, have made the development prospects of the platform unclear.
Nevertheless, the adult market still contains huge business opportunities. UFC fighting star Connor McGregor posted on Ins that he is seriously negotiating the acquisition. In recent years, in addition to his fighting career, McGregor has actively invested and participated in film and television performances. He has cooperated with the game "Hitman" to launch limited levels (later terminated early due to sexual assault allegations), and played the villain in the movie "Veillon Killing Formation 2024".
The current valuation of OnlyFans is approximately US$14.6-24.2 billion. Apart from McGregor, other potential acquirers are not known. But for most users, whether the platform can continue to maintain the existing creative ecosystem after changing hands is the focus.
