Speaking of Potcoin and medical marij., would anybody be interested in buying 100% legal CBD oils with BTC? My buddy's company has a license to sell pure (not-including THC) 30% by-volume CBD oils. There are several different flavors available, and you can hit it with a vape pen. It is very nice. If you are interested in buying this, this option will be available as soon as I bring his brand new website online equipped with the "Buy with BTC" option I am going to enable. Cool

Stay in touch, peeps.

No offence dude, but if you wanted to help you would convince your friend to accept potcoin if he's already accepting BTC. This is exactly the shit I'm talking about when it comes to people falling back on BTC because it's just easy or too lazy to explore potcoin's community potential.

Yup if your here for potcoin get him to accept potcoin...

im potcoin all the way this coin is fucking revolutionary

I've strolled into a few dispensaries in California and chatted with the proprietors about potcoin. None of them had ever heard of it. They were dimly aware of bitcoin. I tried explaining why they might be interested in potcoin, but they simply pointed at their credit card machines and moved on.

Yes, potcoin has to compete with visa & mastercard in California dispensaries.

I love the idea of potcoin, but dispensary owners need to be incentive-ised to use it. Why adopt it when credit cards are here now and are what consumers use ?

Actually there's a bunch of dispensaries on the east coast. You can find some listed here:

https://weedmaps.com/dispensaries/in

There are 22 states that have laws pertaining to the use of MMJ. There are only 2 states where it is recreationally legal.

And I'm from NY originally. Many moons ago, we just used to go up to Vermont or Maine and pick it up. Hell, sometimes we'd go up to Canada as well. As long as you were under an OZ in NY, it was just a ticket.

-Fuse

That law was recently passed (like last month) in Maryland and DC where I am but we are more progressive than most. There are some where I don't doubt it will be illegal for another 5-10 years at least.

Dispensaries on the east coast are very concentrated and almost exclusively in the north. The closest one to me is several hours away, and I live in a somewhat pro-legalization area. But in any case recreational use is far more important in terms of how it will affect the market, atleast IMO.

I heard there are a few places that never repealed prohibition, so it's still illegal to buy alcohol there. Those places should be extremely difficult to deal with.

I think you'll win the war with the MMJ battle. When you put enough kids with disabling seizures in front of the bible-thumpers and tell them that they are cured with mmj, you'll win the bible belt. Win the bible belt on MMJ and the rest of the states will start turning recreational.

Most MMJ states have decent craigslist listings for this stuff. I know I could go on craigslist right now and get anything I wanted as long as I had my card. Maybe we should just start posting craigslist postings to inform people of POT.

-Fuse

I didn't realize Craig's list did this sort of thing. If that's the case has anybody thought of approaching craig's list vendors about Potcoin? As far as I know there is no rule against crypto currencies on Craig's List.

Thanks for the link, mate.

There are several smaller sites accepting it, heres a couple, both of which I've tried:

http://www.venusvaporizer.com/
http://pixskull.com/

There just needs to be a consolidated list of places that accept it and as far as I know it doesn't exist.

I'm just saying that everyone says how well this coin is doing in terms of it's goals, and I'm thinking it isn't quite as accomplished as people make it out to be.

-Fuse

You're right to say Potcoin isn't as accomplished as some people make it out to be but we are a lot farther along in 6 months then most coins. Part of the problem is, marijuana is still only legal in 2 states, which significantly impairs our market. People outside of those 2 states still buy it with cash in back alleyways. Well maybe not in California where you are Wink

but on the east coast its still very much illegal.

It bothers me so much there's still apparently not an official 'these places take potcoin' section on the potcoin website. Or did we miss it?

I agree we need to show every place that accepts potcoin lots of good places... we are probably one of the most accepted coins in crypto...

Checklist:

1: Get shirts out there!!!!

2: Get every place that accepts potcoin on a list!!!

3: Continue buying potcoin cause its the best damn crypto Cheesy

For starters: All this potcoin paraphernalia talk like t-shirts, hats, cups, ashtrays and all the other small stuff SHOULD BE BEING SOLD right now on the main website (potcoin.com/store) or something. Just regular trinkets with the Potcoin Logo. People would spend POT at the store and advertising would leave the store, no brainer. It is pretty dam easy to get a logo put on anything you want, look around.

This suggestion sure sounds familiar.

I agree that there needs to be a more prominent vendor list somewhere. But I don't think its right to say that the only vendor accepting Potcoin is River Rock. There are plenty of them (i.e. coinpayments.net), they just aren't dispensaries selling marijuana. The coin is supposed to be for the industry as a whole, and nowhere does it say you should use Potcoin exclusively to buy Pot.

I'm not saying that it is exclusive to purchasing medicinal marijuana. Is there somewhere where I said that was the case? That being said, what else can I buy right now? Can I buy seeds, vapes, papers, hemp clothing, books, grow supplies, stash boxes... anything related to the medical and recreational marijuana industry? That's what I'm talking about. I completely agree that it isn't just about buying pot.

Rock River is great, but I can't buy anything from them from California. There needs to be a head shop or a grow shop that sells online and ships nationwide. If that is accomplished, others will follow suit. Hell, if there was a grow shop that accepted it, I would be more than completely happy. The forum member BitcoinAcceptedHere always has a WTS thread for MMJ goods. Has anyone approached him to accept POT?

I'm just saying that everyone says how well this coin is doing in terms of it's goals, and I'm thinking it isn't quite as accomplished as people make it out to be.

What's the difference between "commercial" and "merchant"?

Commercial typically indicates business-to-business. Merchant usually means someone who sells to anyone who will buy. In the context of what I was saying, I simply meant merchant as in any willing vendor who will sell to any willing person. With NLG, I can buy food. I can place bets on World Cup. LTC has been used for all of this and more. You see what I mean?

With POT, I can buy.. a keychain. Not exactly the merchandising strength compared to NLG. Not to say it isn't capable down the road. Eventually.

One day.

Quote from: grimeandreason on June 17, 2014, 08:49:25 AM

I meant for reasons with hundreds, nay thousands of years of cultural capital behind it - the universal oppression of pot smokers and the empathetic bond we share through a shared altered state of consciousness. No other coin has that.. though there is METH lol

Someone has definitely been smoking their paper wallets. lol
