In practical terms, the use case for the Tokes token in the state of Nevada is to serve as a currency to use instead of cash in marijuana dispensaries.  The intention being to solve the problem that occurs for legal cannabis businesses that are forced to deal only in cash.   They accumulate reserves of paper cash which can make them targets for thieves.   There are also numerous other problems and challenges they face in dealing only in cash along the entire supply chain.

The customers who would use the Tokes token in these stores would for the mosst part have very little background with cryptocurrency.    They would most likely have never heard of Bitcointalk, for example.  They would have only received the bare minimum technical information needed to use this cryptocurrency to purchase products in a dispensary, using the Tokes Wallet on their smartphones.    

More broadly, Tokes is also a cryptocurrency in the more general sense, which people with a cryptocurrency background will understand and relate to.   That is to say, it does trade on the exchange Bittrex, with the trading pair BTC-TKS.   If you have a Waves wallet, you are able to log into your Waves Client or Waves app and acquire Tokes on the Waves Decentralized Exchange.

In certain countries you are able to connect your bank account to your Waves Client and move funds into your Waves wallet.   This is one way of funding your wallet.   Alternatively, you can acquire Bitcoin or some other major cryptocurrency that trades on Waves and then send it to your Waves wallet.   You can use it to buy Waves, which is the currency that serves as the major trading asset to acquire value tokens on the Waves Decentralized Exchange.   You can also acquire a certain amount of Waves for the sake of leasing to a Waves Node, which will earn you a small passive income in Waves and other tokens.

So typically, there is at least some small investment made when someone is going to set up and use a Waves wallet for practicfal purposes.   Let's say moving $50 or $100 into BTC.   Then sending that to your Waves wallet.    Then buying your first Waves with the BTC.   Performing some trades on the Waves DEX, for instance, in order to buy your first Tokes tokens.  You could also buy the token CoffeeCoin and use that to order coffee.   This is another Waves project that has developed a practical use case for their token.

Does this platform only accept Litecoin? or can also accept other currencies, and whether it expensive for the international postage for shopping . I want to buy something, never buy anything with virtual currency.

Litecoin is one of  the currencies that will be integrated into the Toke Platform Merchant Gateway.   The Waves token "Tokes", being the native currency of the platform, was the initial currency to be used.  We then decided to add support for a select number of the most popular cryptocurrencies which for the moment includes Bitcoin and Litecoin.  The only two major cryptocurrencies supported by the Merchant Gateway during this initial phase.  With time we will likely roll out other payment options as well, as our system starts being used and tested in Nevada dispensaries.

In terms of buying products for international delivery with cryptocurrency.   We currently do offer a line of Tokes themed clothing online through the store Crypto Bantam.   You are able to pay for these items either with cryptocurrency or with dollars.   Shipping is free when you choose to pay in crypto.   Tokes is one of the supporterd currencies accepted by the crypto payment plugin Mycryptocheckout.  So you can in fact use Tokes to buy something at that store and have it shipped anywhere in the world.  That would include other "non-tokes" products such as a Litecoin shirt.

Our first newsletter of 2019 is now available.   In 2018, Tokes Platorm tried to focus mainly on product development.   This year we look forward to being able to share more of the fruits of that work, particularly the Merchant Gateway RC1:

Maybe his problem is not just there, but there are many competitors who have similar projects and offer something more interesting, the core team should make something different to attract their interest.

Something different that has been released today is support of Tokes on the cryptocurrency gateway MyCryptoCheckout.  Any merchant using WooCommerce or Easy Digital Downloads can now accept $TKS.  This opens the possibility for Tokes to be used as a payment method for such things as crypto themed merchandise like clothing.   Another potential use case might be for someone who writes a cannabis blog to accept tips for their blog posts in $TKS by embedding a tipping plugin into their website.    Our first use of MyCryptoCheckout will be for a merchandise line similar to what you see on the following page for CoffeeCoin:   https://cryptobantam.com/product-tag/coffeecoin/   Soon you will be able to order a similar item and pay for it with Tokes.

how is the project going? interested in cannabis industry

The project is moving full steam ahead. If you get a chance, check out the newsletter from Dec. The team has been busy at work to become compliant within the state of Nevada and begin offering their seed-to-sale solution. They are in one of the best positions to actually be adopted for use within the state. Not only is there a working POS (one of the only in the industry atm) but their partnerships this year have been the best in the biz.

While all the other cannabis coins have been aching during this bear market, the Tokes team has focused on development. This will give them an obvious leg up going into next year. It's easy to find problems with startups and young businesses but cryptos are of particular target for fud but it's important look at the big, long term picture. What have the other cannabis coins done this year? Sent a baller to North Korea and received a Cease-and-Desist order from the SEC.

The team has also said multiple times that exchanges are not the main priority and there's years of runway left before the team even needs to consider capital. If things start taking off in Nevada expect Tokes to become the leader in the industry. Once legalization happens federally the team will already have been working with states for years so they again will be in the best position compared to any competitor.

I have to disagree that the competitors have a better product offering. Do they have partnerships that can track products genetically? Are they integrated with dozens of ATM's and do they have their own proprietary POS that can compete with the likes of Shopify? These are the types of things governments will be looking for as the industry develops and these are the reasons Tokes sticks out compared to other, current cannabis projects.

It seems like it's not growing, we have bittrex but the volume is very small.
We used to have a decent volume but the team did not bother to add new exchange, bittrex as good back in the days
but there are new improving exchange now which could help the volume of tokes to grow.
well the problem is the volume, this indicates that the lack of interest of TKS. According to you, whether that be the problem is Exchange or no progression from this project? The team should pay attention to about the promotion and marketing so that there will be many people interested in these coins.
