It's obvious you are the site's author.

I was going to wait to annunce this but...

Www.greenstring.org

We are already making branded paper wallets and cards with just a public address so that customers with no ability to use a phone or computer can still use potcoins as a reward system.

We are also giving dispensaries 10,000 coins to give away to their clients.

The campaigns will start shorlty.

Potcoin airdrop in denver and washington.

Its going to be awesome sauce.

good to see pot on page one




lets try to get this coin over 2000, then 3000, then 5000...ect.

Awesome Chronikka!

We see your purchase as well as a few others, and as we are still learning coinpayments I guess it's just waiting for the confirmations.  But we will get this out shortly to you!  Thanks!

Entered 

Used Coinpayments for the second time...I have to say I like the service.

That's exactly what it needs.  I suggested long ago that the best use of this "coin" would be to make it physical and sell it through stores (read: dispensaries) with proceeds going to a cause.

IMO Potcoin has the same chance as Dogecoin in becoming popular. Many here are arguing that there doesn't need to be an industry specific coin and it's pointless. Well, so is Dogecoin if you look at it that way. People could just as easily tip on Reddit with Bitcoin, or get Bitcoin sponsored on a race car. The point is simple, they can relate to the meme and that's their driving force. People who aren't inclined to bother with Bitcoin or Doge might just get interested in Potcoin.

Maybe Potcoin needs a second function. Something like setting up donations to for people who need help with legal fees. Or maybe donating to sponsor legalization rallies and the like. We need to think outside the box on this one.

Most debit cards have daily limits. (Not that you'd run into them when buying stuff.) However I regularly do transactions that exceed those limits, so my solution was to get several bank cards, or send some to my brother to split the withdrawal amount.

Hey Smokemon I proposed a rewards type of system awhile ago when the coin was just getting off the ground. The basic idea was merchants/dispensaries/whoever gives out Potcoin as a "rewards" type of promotion for buying products at their stores. It gets into circulation, into the hands of people who would actually turn around and use the coin. Not just dump them on the market...well hopefully.

Anyway just thought I would bring it up again...might be a good way to approach dispensaries about the coin.

Right before leaving denver i was with the river rock guys talking about potcoin and how it would help them. They told me the day before they had one of their bank accounts closed after a while of having it.

They told me that they are still facing major issues and also mainly the paying of taxes on employes who work at the dispensary who they have to pay 30 percent in taxes because of the law of cannabis distribution.
If they can use potcoins to pay for their salary then they would be saving those taxes.
It can also be used as a reward system for dispenaries to give potcoins out to customers.

We are planing to give all dispensaries who accept potcoin a bunch of free coins to start to.give them away to clients and getting them to used to using them.

Just because mediswipe offers 1 solution doesnt mean potcoin is now useless..

People have 4 or 5 credit cards or debit cards. Merchants can accept multiple methods of payment.

Potcoin is working on a few ways to pay merchants, exployes and bills.  We are working directly with dispensaries to see how potcoin can help them and make solutions to help them be more secure and facilitate the daily transactions.

I waited at most dispensaries to get cash from the atm then again in line to pay.

Potcoin is way easier i find.

Viceroy id like to know what you think about better solutions.

Smokepotcoins.com lists places that accept potcoin.

Hey viceroy

We worked with tony and earnest while i was denver, and we are working out the details of accepting potcoins and the placement of the 2 atms at both the river rock location.
We will be finlazing things with them this week and we will do a press release with river rock and the potcoin atm.
 
We will update everyone once we have the final details

Whats a good website to buy pot related products? with potcoins ;p I kinda wana spend a few, O wait NVM ^ lol

I think it is attention grabbing, and there is no regulation. How does one even become the official crypto currency of any industry? You just say you are, and make it as so. Just saying you are is not enough though, you need to make it as such. I am hoping that it is coming.

Have you been to the stores lately and looked at your food containers to see NATURAL flavoring on it. Only to find out NATURAL apple flavor, contains no apples. The flavoring, some chemical combination, taste like that, of natural apples, so they can call it as such.

I can see wanting to come down on the coin for making lofty claims, it almost makes ya wanna roll your eyes, like really? the official coin? Pretty much what you are saying, but from a marketing stand point. The general consumer does not stop and over analyze everything, they do not have time. Having words like official def helps create an air of authority and such. I think the people who feel as we do are in a minority, a majority of people are just too stupid to understand what any of it means and do what their friends do and need buzz words like official to add validity to their choice in potcoin. "so why did you choose potcoin over dopecoin or hempcoin?" "well, the site said it was the official currency of the industry." Sad, but true.

Thinking about it as a goal for them, perhaps. The more you say something the more true it becomes and the more likely you are to achieve that goal, just mental conditioning. I would rather have the devs wake up each morning thinking they are running THE crypto of the pot industry rather than have them waking up thinking they were running just another shit coin. Ain't nothin wrong with that.

It doesn't help that the website doesn't have an easy access link to where potcoin is being accepted--unless I missed it.

Prominently displayed is the 800 number, places to buy potcoin, accept potcoin, etc. But no link for merchants. While this may be elsewhere, it should be right on the main website headers.

I'm guessing it's somewhere and I missed it, but that's my point--if I don't know of places I can spend it ..........

They also continue to proclaim being THE OFFICIAL coin of pot, but they're not. They're one of several, until one is clearly chosen by the community and heralded by 3rd party groups as the official coin.

That's what I've been saying more or less. Spend your coins  

And you're right Potcoin can be used for many other things. But the reality is, only the marijuana industry is going to popularize the coin. Normal people are not going to use Potcoin in their daily lives. Thats what Bitcoin, Litecoin, etc are for.

I imagine at some point in the future the average person will have multiple wallets, or even one integrated wallet that supports many coins. We are at a point where coins can be designed for specific functions, like long term savings, or short term spending. Fast confirmation times and lots of coins for everyday spending for example.

Potcoin just needs to finds its function in the crypto world. We are making good progress...but unfortunately so is the competition.

Everyone does realize that you can use POT on many different websites to purchase everything from shoes and sunglasses to pipes.  If you say what is the point of this coin when banks are allowing debit/CC or there is mediswipe, then what is the point of having BTC or DOGE.  The whole point of POT is to make it cheaper for not only dispensaries but head shops and online retailers.  They use this coin and save on fees from credit card companies.  If you think this coin is pointless why are you getting involved with the forums.  Move on to something that you feel makes since to you!!  

Everyone has to know for the Crypto world to become a huge success and viable for every retailer in the world to use,  there will have to be some sort of regulation by governments and some sort of tax.  Otherwise it will all end up in the gutter. If there is no regulation or taxation then most govts will ban it and then most retailers at least most legit retailers will not accept crypto coins.  It is all a work in progress that will be a huge success in the coming years.  Everyone should use their coins as often as possible to promote this world.  
This is my opinion.  Peace
