The adult video platform Pornhub ranks seventh on a list of America’s most visited websites and averages about 81 million visitors per day, according to The Daily Beast. 

And now the pornographic destination taken the next big step towards online conquest, by rolling out the first ever Pornhub Awards, on September 6, an awards show aimed at challenging the long-standing AVN Awards for the title of “the Oscars of Porn.”

The winners of the Pornhub Awards will be chosen using a combination of likes, comments and views. In order to promote their fledgling awards show, Pornhub has launched an “Olympics-style” reality series called Pornhub Games.

The series follows six female performers over the course of as many episodes, as they compete in categories, starting with pole dancing and escalating into — well, more mature content. Throughout each round, the players battle for “advantages” that will give them a head start in the next episode. All six performers stay in the game till the end, and then one “Pornhub Games Champion” will be crowned at the awards show in September.

The winners get their prize in the form of a new cryptocurrency called Vice Industry Token, or VIT.
