@ Dopecoindude -Told ya it wouldn't be easy bud, it's always going to be a warzone in this thread lol.

I'll try to give you a hand here during this transitional period and provide a bit of insight into the upcoming gameplan as well as discuss the previous events over the last year.

When DopeCoin was originally created it was my intention to create a better option for the already thriving underground marketplace that used digital currencies in the hundreds of millions for the purchase of drugs online. My intention was not to enter into a new marketplace (legalized MMJ) and to try and not only educate the general population, but to also get them to begin using crypto currencies as part of they're daily life.

That plan always seemed too big for one man to accomplish and also seemed like it's ability to be accomplished was still much to early.

We saw Potcoin attempt to create this scenario with some big backend funding and some great ideas such as fiat to Potcoin atm machines, massive exposure in Colorado not only on the radio but also at this worlds Cannabis Cup.
The result.... Less than spectacular.

The simple fact of the matter is that although it is a wonderful idea and something that I fully support, I still believe that it is premature. The general public is not yet ready.

Will this change over time? Yes it will

Somehow we got caught up in this race to become the dominant go to currency for legalized MMJ when realistically we should of not wavered form our original gameplan. It's time we revisit that gameplan and make the necessary adjustments needed to provide an option to an already thriving marketplace of crypto currency users. Users that are already well educated and comfortable making crypto transactions and do so on a regular basis.

With that being said, are we still in the running for legalize MMJ purchases, absolutely!

I just wanted to clarify some of the misconceptions that are currently being stated as fact by some.
This is a long term project and something that will require alot of work. Communities make projects like this successful more so than the developers themselves.

Thank you all for showing interest in the project and for joining us on this crazy adventure.
