Cannacoin on NWGT.org


 

 

cannacoin was deployed on march 28, 2014 with proudly no ICO and 0.00% pre-mine under a fair distribution strategy. cannacoin is cryptocurrency for the cannabis community, worldwide. 

since our inception we have operated as an alternative to cash in cannabis transactions where a cash-only business model is mandated by the government due to cannabis prohibition on a federal level. this makes banks unable to open accounts for cannabis companies. plus, handling all that cash is very dangerous indeed. 

cryptocurrency is an evolution of distributed computing and the bittorrent protocol. in december of 2014, cannacoin transitioned to a proof of stake protocol for environmental awareness, carbon offset, and scalability. proof of stake is a model where the amount of cannacoin that an individual holds determines their network weight or mining weight and in turn dictates their contribution to the verification of transactions whereby new coins are minted on the network. this means that users earn new coins based on the amount of coins they hold. this amount is essentially 2% annually of their net holdings. 

cannacoin can be exchanged on a peer to peer level with our mobile wallet (coming soon to android) and we also have a point of sale solution for merchants. we want to install cannacoin kiosks at participating cannabis retailers and build an online exchange. we are currently in the stage of upgrading and working to expand our utility and technology. 

more to come.

Cannabis and The Financial System

    While cannabis is widely accepted worldwide by most adults, there are still a lot of concerns about incorporating cannabis into our current financial system. We needed an alternative to cash that could be implemented worldwide, so we came up with Cannacoin ($CCC). Cannacoin was initially created in 2014 and deployed on the now defunct NWGT.org, an online medical cannabis forum. It was meant to circumvent the banking ban placed on cannabis businesses through federal prohibition. Cannacoin is ideal in many ways. It is cheaper and more secure than most payment methods. In a world where cryptocurrency is quickly becoming ubiquitous, Cannacoin is the best choice because Bitcoin is too precious to spend on everyday purchases.

Hemp, CBD, and THC

    Cannabidiol (or CBD) is a constituent of the hemp plant that is associated with physical healing properties. It works on the body's endocannabinoid system as an agent of equilibrium between the various systems of our bodies. Hemp is said to be the original cultivar of the human species. It was the first plant grown on purpose by humans over 6,000 years ago. It can be used for its strong fiber for cloth, rope, and to feed livestock. My theory is that many of the strange diseases and food allergies that arose in the 20th century are due to the fact that hemp was removed from the food chain in the early 1900's during criminalization efforts. CBD is non-psychoactive unlike it's "neighbor" THC (also found in hemp but in lesser degrees) which is well known for it's psychoactive properties and sometimes can cause adverse effects in the overall experience of the ingestion of cannabis. Such effects as paranoia, anxiety, hallucination, and "time shift" amo...
