Pornhub is discussing the possibility of an acquisition with an unidentified investor group led by entrepreneur / โThe Godfather of Canadian Weedโ Chuck Rifici as the frontrunners for this blockbuster sale.
According to Business Insider, Rifici โ who was the CEO of Tweed Marijuana Inc before he was ousted, as well as the Liberal Party of Canadaโs former CFO โ has been negotiating the purchase of the high-traffic online asset with current owner MindGreek. The latter reportedly declined to comment on three separate occasions when approached.
Currently, the price, identities of other investors, and whether the necessary capital required for such a purchase has actually been secured by Rifici remains unclear. Reporting as a whole on the fate of the modern worldโs X-rated Library of Alexandria, in fact, has been rather lacking thus far. Itโs as if the entire affair is being conducted via real-life incognito mode.

โIโm always looking at different deals and my team at [investment firm] Bruinen is exploring a number of opportunities,โ Chuck Rifici tells Business Insider via email in response to being queried about the potential Pornhub sale.
โBut until there is something to announce progress on, I have no further comment.โ
