Great summary of the status quo and a great look into the (near) future.
I have been in this business for a couple year now. Although, I am not a one of the major public companies you have speak of, I have made money and profit in the industry. Mainly from authority websites and advertising.
Like you, I am strategizing 3-5 investments to take advantage of the eventual tidal wave when full-on legalization happens. Most of my investment strategies are in a niche of the overall market that is flying under the radar.
Great right up, my friend! Wish you well on your journey in these exciting times!
A lot of money to be made
