Marijuana has a long and sorted relationship with the American legal system. At the turn of the 20th century, cannabis was one of the nation’s top elixirs and cure-alls, but over the last couple of generations, laws and regulations have made it a legal nightmare. It is treated as harshly as heroine and accounts for a large chunk of America’s 2.5 million citizens in prison.

On Tuesday, in addition to Donald Trump’s upset victory, Marijuana was legalized for use in seven out of eight states there was a voting referendum (Arizona defeated it.) This is a good start, but that is only half the battle. Can Bitcoin help with what comes next?
