The Hemp coin also known as THC holds great potential and value compared to the other marijuana based coins within the second quarter of 2018 and further. This is because this coins has great fundamentals and purpose. The reasons for the importance of this coin are as follows.
Purpose of the coin: To connect marijuana farmers and local dispensaries
Market Capital: 2579 BTC and the trading volume doubled in 24 hours showing that it is ready for action.
Circulation supply: 230,478,760 THC
Exchanges for Trade: Bittrex remains the sole exchange that facilitates 100% of the coin’s trade (within an exchange) apart from the coin’s website http://www.hempcoin.org/
Short Term Hold
- The upcoming 420
The 20th of April since the 1970’s have been celebrated as the national weed-smoking day, which originated in California. Today is the 12th of April 2018, which means that, we on the 7th day prior to the national weed-smoking day of the year. So, how do people celebrate the 420? People would smoke weed on the 20th of April 2018 at 4.20 pm. This would mean that the demand of marijuana would upsurge shortly and it is legal now to smoke weed in many parts of the United States of America. As individuals and organizations purchase and sell weed using the Hemp coin, the price is likely to explode exponentially within the coming week.
Strategy: Buy THC around 1,000 Sats prior to the 420 (earlier the better). The price of this coin will shortly plummet after this day, which would provide us with the opportunities to repurchase for a lower rate.
Long Term Hold
- THC is a Masternode coin
An absolute beginner would think about what a masternode could be? Even though many of us understand the concept, I have found a good simple article to explain the concept in simple terms for the beginners. Please visit the following like to understand what a Masternode is and its functionalities https://blockonomi.com/masternode-guide/.
In order to own a full node, one must possess 20,000 THC coins. To obtain further insights, you could Google on what happened to Dash and Trig’s price after the Masternodes were announced. Dash’s price, which was above USD 1,000 once plummeted due to the fall of Bitcoin, similarly, Trig’s price plummeted due to the delisting that happened on the Bittrex exchange, which was one of the major suppliers of the coin. However, in a few months’ time after the Masternode is release, I could vouch that you will never be in a loss ☺.
A comparative analysis of the Q1 and Q2 master node announcements
Q1 Masternode plan (invalid)
Q2 Masternode plan (valid)
The developers of this coin has not yet published further details on the payout, however, it will soon be published on their website under the master node section in the form of a video tutorial
Strategy: Accumulate THC on averages to own a full master node.
Advantages and Disadvantages of investing in THC

Disadvantages
a) With the change new bugs would evolve and other issues that will subsequently arise which will be required to be address by the core team
Possibilities
a) Since Bittrex the only exchange along the www.hempcoin.com that facilitates the trade of the Hemp coin, there exists a huge possibility of this coin being listed on other exchanges main players. This could also happen since THC is a master node coin and other exchanges would want to list the same to facilitate trading this coin
b) Many governments are looking forward to the legalization of marijuana which will impose a positive impact on the price action of the hemp coin
Other facts about the hemp coin to watch out for
a) When it pumps, it pumps exponentially (1x, 2x etc.)
b) The exponential increase of the coin’s volume would indicate that it would be up for action. This is one of the indicators to watch out for with respect to any coin to invest and not THC alone.
Things to keep in mind
Beware of Bitcoin price movements:
The Bitcoin price movement has been showing lower lows since the January of 2018. As we all know that Bitcoin’s price movement influences the price movement of Altcoin and hence one must be cautious as usual on this factor when involved in trading.
Fake sell walls: Most of the times when a whales spot a potential coin, they tend to put fake sell walls to obtain the coins for cheap from the inexperienced traders by creating a panic sell. For some people, this is business and for others it is life itself. I had had lost a lot of money previously on this illusion. If you are a whale and reading this, you should have a bit of mercy on the poor inexperienced and probably already broke traders, especially since BTC is acting like a jack ass and everyone needs to survive :P .
In short, the future of cannabis agriculture looks bright and so does your investment within this coin.

Thats crazy, I'm also a college student studying in Canada, Waterloo. Not sure how big the crypto community is down here but seems like you have some interesting insights on the development and advancements on cryptos and the blockchain. If your down to chat about cryptos or just how the market is moving in general, it'll be interesting talking to fellow college crypto trader or speculator . Let me know
Well Deuceace, the crypto community is worth billions of dollars and it surely does resolve several issues that fiat currencies are unable to tackle. I would love to chat with you and your fellow college mates with regards to cryptocurrency trading and investments, however let me warn you that these sort of trading and investments involve high level of risk and is vulnerable to manipulation by whales (holders of large number of crypto assets). Get involved only if you are ready to lose all what you invest i.e invest only as much as you could lose. This was one of my major mistakes and I have lost a few thousands of dollars initially intended to use towards my university fee payment. Also, I will soon publish my formal thesis which answers on what makes individuals invest in cryptocurrencies. This is a study and involves a data collection from within the real cyrpto market and mathematical analysis. This could also probably help you with your dissertation thesis since you are in college :). Please do share my posts and help me get more upvotes.
I appreciate your movements of pushing and sharing the true value of the blockchain & cryptocurrencies amongst peers and individuals who are aware/unaware of this upcoming takeover of blockchain technology, some say "New Internet." I realized from the beginning, this market was so volatile due the major corruption & manipulation happening amongst us where large capital investors and even large institutions have their sneaky ways of using that power of their massive capital to manipulate prices where they make ridiculous amount of profits eating from the small time trader/investors such as us. I believe it also going be why prices 10x-1000x when institutional money who truly believe in using this blockchain put billions into the market. Whats your FB? or other social media in order to get into contact.
Very nice, well written!!
Thank you @cryptocartalk
