Venezuelans Celebrate Maduro Arrest With 31% Surge in OnlyFans Consumption

As news broke on the weekend of Saturday 3rd & Sunday 4th of January, that Venezuela’s president had been captured by U.S. special forces, a surprising signal of public reaction emerged online.

New analysis from OnlyGuider, the world’s leading OnlyFans search engine, shows that OnlyFans content consumption in Venezuela jumped 31% compared to the previous weekend, marking one of the sharpest traffic spikes the platform has ever recorded in the country.

The surge comes against the backdrop of a rapidly expanding Venezuelan market. According to OnlyGuider’s OnlyFans Wrapped 2025 report, Venezuelans spent $11.7 million on OnlyFans last year, with national spending already growing over 26% year-on-year—one of the fastest growth rates in the Americas.

“History shows that moments of political change are often accompanied by bursts of online expression, escapism, and digital spending,” said Sam Pierce, CEO of OnlyGuider. “If stability, wealth, and opportunity really do start flowing back into Venezuela, we wouldn’t be surprised if spending on creator platforms absolutely explodes. Let’s just hope this spike is a sign of optimism — not just celebration.”

OnlyGuider analysts note that digital platforms like OnlyFans often act as early indicators of social mood, particularly in countries undergoing major political and economic shifts.
