Well canabis is an anabolic too, that's why it's forbidden by every professional sportive organization.

But there is also dangers linked to the utilization (Depends people, but some link seems to appear between depression and schizophrenia).

I think we must talk of everything, pros and cons of its utilization, medicinal or recreational. Would be good to have a true and complete study with all the results of the precedent true, professional and scientific studies shown.

This plant has many virtue, even with a recreational use.

Paragon will be one of the firms that will change this but it will take time.
This isnt something that will happen within one week.

I saw some campaign photo's about this project and really like this:


That's how you make promo!!
Great marketing

Yes, but as you know for medical reason you now can grow it by yourself, if you have a serious illness.
A friend of me was the driving force in this court case.
This is not the first coin related to cannabis, but till now for me Paragon is the most sophisticated project, it could work.

Yep it can help a lot of people, but many countries / states doesn't allow it. I hope that devs can handle it.

Medicinal cannabis is a huge market, a lot of sickness people need it to have less pain. PARAGON will offer us the possibility tu check and understand what they will buy even if they are not cannabis friendly and it's really important.
A lot of sick people suffer from hard pain and will need medecinal cannabis to fight the pain !
Parangon continue to earn visibility nice to see that , like the article of IBtime, very cool !

You could make easier the distribution by associating with something like TenX or some easy/hardware to manage everything at the buying/selling.
Which countries are your main potential (Other than USA)?
Do you expect to turn the cannabis value with your token?

Interesting, i had not seen the IBtimes article. I hope PRG will focus a lot of their efforts bringing cannabis more to the medical field. It's uses have been proven, but widespread adoption is in the medical field is still lacking due to the stigma of Cannabis. PRG will be able to offer quality checks on the delivered product so that there can be governmental approval of Cannabis usage in the medical field.

Oh, thank you for this list. I already have known about benefits for some of this illnessess but some of these I have never considered. More reasons to support the legalization as a medical treatment.

Here are just ten of the many health benefits attributed to the plant

1. Alzheimer’s
Marijuana may be able to slow the progression of Alzheimer’s disease, according to research by the Scripps Research Institute published in “Molecular Pharmaceutics.”
2. Anxiety
Harvard Medical School found that marijuana may have anti-anxiety effects. Of course, keep in mind that high doses may increase anxiety and paranoia.
3. Arthritis
Marijuana can alleviate pain and inflammation linked to arthritis.
4. Cancer
Research published in the journal “Molecular Cancer Therapeutics” suggests that cannabidiol, a chemical compound found in marijuana, turns off the “ID-1″ gene, which cancer cells use to spread.
5. Epilepsy
Studies conducted by researchers at Virginia Commonwealth University indicate that marijuana may stop seizures.
6. Glaucoma
Researchers are working to develop new cannabis-based drugs to treat glaucoma pain after determining marijuana’s effectiveness for treating the condition. Glaucoma is a condition that increases pressure inside the eyeball and can lead to vision loss.
7. Lung health
Research in the “Journal of the American Medical Association“ found that marijuana can increase lung capacity – not decrease it, as many people have long believed.
8. Multiple sclerosis
A study published in the “Canadian Medical Association Journal” found that cannabinoids significantly reduced multiple sclerosis pain.
9. Nausea
Marijuana contains a minimum of 60 cannabinoids. THC is the primary chemical associated with its mind-altering effects. THC has been used in the treatment of nausea, including drug- or chemotherapy-induced nausea.
10. Parkinson’s Disease
Research published in “MedPage Today” found that marijuana use eased tremors and improved fine motor skills in patients with Parkinson’s disease.

To create a structure like PARAGON to improve the cannabis industry could help many people.

On their website of course https://paragoncoin.com/storage/whitepaper.pdf

where can you get the whitepaper?

I dont see why they would get arrested, they wouldnt be selling weed but fight for legalization. Thats not a crime and there are groups who do that already. At lest in countries where they accept free speech.

It's a good idea to create an infrastructure around the cannabis industry. Even if there is already a few things, nothing compared to what you want achieve. I hope that Paragon team will be serious and i will follow the updates

From what i understand Paragon is not a coin/token that will be used for just purchasing Cannabis, unlike many (all?) of the other pot coins. I like that they are choosing a different angle that is based on the problems they saw in the industry with their company AuBox.

However, it's still hard to wrap my head around what the coin/token will actually be used for. I will be following the website/project for further updates 

Irrelevant to mention that it will be solely for medical use, do not worry about it, the entertainment will benefit soon, although for another reason, as the World Health Organization constantly fighting with the UN for full legalization. In some American states medical use is small by law, as it is in California, but it does not take long to implement new laws.

The Russian white paper will be available soon! We will post links to it here as soon as it is available along with any new information on upcoming bounty campaigns.

I believe the goal would be full legalization, they don't mention anything about it being purely medical or recreational in the white paper.

Also, I found a great write up on the CEO, Jess VerSteeg, it's a good read and gives a lot of insight into why she is involved in Paragon.

Will you enforce supplying from local growers or will you set up a country-wide supply chain for cannabis?
