Why?

There is an abundance of cannabis coins already......

Smells like a blatant money grab.......



Quite simply put, we feel we have a superior platform to the digital assets currently out there, and believe we can execute with greater success than the alternatives. Not to be overly critical, but given the length of time that the other coins have been functioning, they have seriously disappointing results. We have a strong team and solid concept, and we've already laid the groundwork for our initiative within the industry.

If you haven't done so, I'd encourage you to give our whitepaper and business plan a read through.

superior platform for cannabis sales is a big fail.

You need to FOCUS on TOP Genetics.  I am in the Cannabis industry of California, I see people with ideas like this all the time and there's more non-crypto related cannabis apps already.

Having quality Flower Consistently > More funding

And in the cannabis industry, the best flower is never grown in a cannabis factory but in small batches by people who love what they do not just for money but for medicine that will never give you any of their product.

$5 million funding objectives, I think the rise in BTC prise has made people to abuse crowd-funding. I'm not particular about Tokes Platform at all I'm just speaking in general terms. Can this project collect up to $5 million form VC to be sincere?
 I only need one more ICO to invest into this year and call it a very interesting and rewarding year

I'm a big fan of cannabis and cannabis related products.. (I'm dutch for a reason  Roll Eyes)

However.. I don't see any past experience around cannabis itself in the team members list.. You can bring in experienced coders etc.. But without cannabis growing experts and people with great knowledge and global connections in this scene, this will not work imho..

Also 5 million dollars.. Are you trying to buy out greenhouseseeds.com or something? Cheesy
Way to much budget for a cannabis startup..

It's getting a bit late and I'll be turning in soon, but I want to attempt to address a few of your questions first:


What is the distribution of ICO funds?  Specifically, what is earmarked for license acquisition verses business acquisition versus partnership?  How do these options impact the revenue model? Is there a guaranteed percentage that is returned to token holders?

This is nearly impossible to determine until we have a solid estimate of ICO proceeds. License acquisition can be relatively inexpensive, with the demonstration of a business plan and $250K-$500K in liquid assets. Those figures can change depending on the state's new requirements, but it's a solid baseline. The licenses are technically the smallest component of the budget though. Locating a facility and outfitting it with the necessary equipment to undertake our objective will be a larger portion of funding. Again, our ambition here will be limited only by our capital raise. We cannot guarantee a specific return to investors, as that would very likely violate a law in some capacity.


What is the roadmap timeline e.g., phase I (business/license formation) and phase II (technical development)?

We anticipate development on both fronts within 90 days of ICO close, including a mobile app with transactional capability.


Is there a minimum ICO target?    What happens to the funds if minimum is not reached or licensing is not obtained?
How are ICO funds escrowed?

We do not currently have a minimum on the ICO, as we can continue work on the Tokes Platform with relatively low overhead. That said, coupling our platform with the business operation offers tremendous opportunity for TOKES holders. We're also finalizing details on our escrow (still PRE-ANN), but we are likely establishing a multi-sig escrow account with 2 external independent third parties and ourselves.


What is your contingency should regulations allow MME banking operations to occur? What happens to your value proposition? What are the risks to your business model that you have identified?

You're referring to federal legalization, which would be required to facilitate the banking of these individuals. Given the current political environment and status of state legalization, we don't project legalization at the federal level for at least a decade. Probably two. We expect our platform to be well ingrained in the industry by that point. And to reiterate specifics from the whitepaper, we're preparing for more than strictly a digital currency. There are going to be numerous features built out in time that will provide value to users.


Appreciate all the questions!

Interesting idea. I wish you good luck in this project, I like the idea of empowering the legalization movement with a crypto token.

I really support cannabis, for real.  But isn't this project literally the same thing as cannabis coin?  

this is not fud,  Just wondering since basically the only difference I see is that instead of pegging to a gram of cannabis, you are pegging to usd which is kinda the same thing if you say that 1g is $20 so pegging to 1g is the same as pegging to $20 usd.

Edit: meh who cares, GL guys hope your team is much better than What's his ass from cannabis coin.




More importantly, do you even have a cannabis guy in Nevada that knows the legal structure for cannabis there for a grow operation business?


I would add and ask if you could explain the process of acquiring a Nevada recreation permit/license?


At this point in time all available medical MME licenses have been distributed to business owners in the state, with no additional business licenses anticipated for medical in the immediate future. While the process is relatively straightforward, in terms of applying with the state and demonstrating a feasible business plan, all individuals interested in entering the business right now are forced to acquire licenses by purchasing another business listed for sale. With recreational use passing in the state of Nevada in the last election, we're eagerly anticipating a new set of guidelines to be released for recreational applications. Timing of the ICO is (semi-coincidentally) closely aligned with what we foresee to be the recreational application process. We do know that current medical business license holders will have the first opportunity to apply for recreational licenses.

While acquiring licenses via a business acquisition is not our ideal method of execution, it's a strategy we've not ruled out. We'll await the state's release of recreation license application guidelines to make a determination in that regard. As a fallback, we do have close connections in the industry who are already operating with full cultivation, production, and dispensary licenses. We have loosely discussed an alliance with them in which we can create and market the products that are already in development. We're not going to be able to disclose those partners' identities or business name at this time.

I do want to point out that while the business model is an integral component of our project, we'll be developing the Tokes Platform and digital asset independently of the cannabis operations, so TOKES holders can expect to see progression on both fronts simultaneously, but likely at different intervals.

What is the distribution of ICO funds?  Specifically, what is earmarked for license acquisition verses business acquisition versus partnership?  How do these options impact the revenue model? Is there a guaranteed percentage that is returned to token holders?
