Thanks fellas. I don't post for tips..give that POT to someone new to crypto.

The goal of any initiative; coin or otherwise, is two-fold at the moment; (i) getting the weed-coin into the wallets of your average Joe, and more importantly (ii) give that average Joe a reason to spend them.  The latter is the most difficult one 'cause you need to get merchants and business owners involved and willing to take some risks with portions of their sales they take in.  If planned and done right, there's a huge opportunity with for a full service consulting group... hint hint, 420 Joint Force Alliance. . . . to come around and help with that . . . think wealth mgmt for the "crypto portion" of the business.

Unfortunately, BitcoinTalk IS NOT the place where you will accomplish either of these two things.  No offense to anyone here, but the forums at BCTalk are pathetic....the shit that goes on here, especially in the weed-coin forums is embarrassing.  I would NEVER EVER mention this cesspool of a place to any person or business actually considering adopting and using cryptos.  There's enough garbage in this place to keep people away.

But pinche, how else will they learn about cryptos, you might ask.....that's where the 420 Joint Force Alliance would come in.  I view this group more as the unbiased "bridge" between the real world and this fantasy world people keep speculating about here on BCTalk.  

B4zz4 and the pamphlets he's created for CANN (which BTW could apply and be repurposed / tweaked with info on ANY coin) is a step in the right direction.  We need more "white-papers" that give business owners not only the information they would need to start accepting and transacting using cryptos, but IDEAS on how they just might get people to want to use them....and I don't mean just putting a "crypto price" on products.

While we need to make it simple for users to keep and transact with a particular coin (most already do), the bigger challenge is getting businesses to embrace the idea of using cryptos for more than just the sale of their wares/services or other promotional events.

I have so many ideas, but the problem is, I fucking hate the crypto-space here on these shitty forums...I hate the James and Josh Dellays and what they've done to competing coins. Although Josh may very well be a good coder/developer, I don't trust him.  Plus the fact that his asshole twin brother is never beyond Josh's shadow is enough for me to stay as far the fuck away from those dipshits as possible.

I have no respect for the losers like Adam Garrity who feel the need to constantly remind everyone that they're God's gift to cryptos, who refuse to listen, learn, and grow and refuse to take and act on clear opportunities when they come.  I'm tired of all the others hyping shit up and squandering what precious monetary investments they may have had (POT and CCN come to mind on that one).  My ideas would be wasted on these asshats, mis-managed or poorly executed by those who have shown time and time again that they are unfit to build manage and maintain a community let alone lead anyone anywhere.

I'll tell ya, if I had the connections CANN claims to have with growers, suppliers, real estate, etc. . . . and some venture capital or a bank loan to work with, along with their scandalous pre-mine at my disposal, I'd seriously consider opening a few dispensaries / social clubs in Colorado where cryptos (not limited to one) would play a role in some way...my ideas and use / deployment of the weed-cryptos I'd accept wouldn't be limited to my dispensaries either....think cross-promotion with local restaurants / bars in the area.

Get the cryptos in the hands of the average Joe, and give them reasons to use them. If we're successful with these two things, the average Joe will want to get more of these coins and everybody wins......if all we care about is the rewards we get for staking or keeping coins out of circulation, we all lose.
