NEW YORK, January 30, 2018 /PRNewswire/ --
A report by New Frontier Data in partnership with Arcview Market Research, indicates that the legalization of cannabis in California, Massachusetts, Nevada, Florida, Arkansas and North Dakota will result in new markets that will account for $7.1 billion in sales by 2020. The data estimates that the total U.S. cannabis market will surpass $20.9 billion by 2020. By segment, the medical cannabis market was worth $4.7 billion in 2016 and is expected to grow to $13.3 billion by 2025. Recreational cannabis sales during the same period are projected to grow at a 21 percent CAGR, from $1.9 billion to $10.9 billion. Global Payout, Inc. (OTC: GOHE), MassRoots, Inc. (OTC: MSRT), Mountain High Acquisitions Corp. (OTC: MYHI), Cannabis Science, Inc. (OTC: CBIS), GreenGro Technologies, Inc. (OTC: GRNH)
California's new recreational cannabis laws went into effect on January 1st, 2018. A report by Fortune indicates that, "in order to collect $1 billion a year in taxes, the state will need to reach a projected $7 billion in annual legal recreational cannabis sales. At that rate, California would easily be the country's largest legal marijuana market, as the entire legal cannabis industry in the U.S. is expected to pull in roughly $10 billion in total sales for 2017. That number would almost certainly get a boost in the coming years, as legal markets grow in California and other states, such as Nevada and Massachusetts."
Global Payout, Inc. (OTC: GOHE) announced yesterday breaking news that, "its majority owned subsidiary, MoneyTrac Technology, Inc. ("MTRAC", the "Company") has completed a Joint Venture Partnership agreement ("JV") with Integrated Compliance Solutions, LLC ("ICS"), a premier 'Seed to Banktm' provider of financial and regulatory compliance services and solutions for the multi-billion-dollar retail cannabis industry."
As MTRAC has continued to make significant headway in recent weeks in the development of a strong foundation that is required to deliver legitimate banking solutions to the legal cannabis industry. The Company views the establishment of this JV Partnership with ICS as a critical opportunity to fortify the compliance aspects of the banking solutions that are being co-developed by MTRAC and the strategic partners with which they have been collaberating. Said MTRAC CEO, Vanessa Luna: "The importance of compliance in an industry that is so heavily regulated like retail cannabis is something that cannot be understated. The ICS team carries several years of valuable experience with them in the field of regulatory compliance solutions and financial technology services for banking, and their integration into the banking solutions we are dedicated to delivering to the cannabis industry is not only significant, but essential to our commitment of providing retail cannabis businesses with the most compliant and regulated banking solution available." Said ICS CEO, Christopher Johnson: "It should come as no surprise that the retail marijuana business is one of the highest risk spaces in retail. Being able to effectively track and manage KYC and source of all funds is imperative for these businesses who are focused on operating retail establishments that are not only profitable but are fully compliant with all financial regulatory requirements. Our 'Seed to Bank' technology solutions give these businesses the tools necessary to navigate the challenging and changing compliance waters, and I am excited to be joining MoneyTrac and its group of experienced partners on this important venture of bringing real banking solutions to the growing industry of cannabis." "MTRAC intends for much of its focus over the coming weeks to surround incorporating the multiple strategic partnerships it has cultivated within the financial, banking, and compliance service sectors into the ongoing co-development of a banking solution that meets the demands and needs of the emerging retail cannabis industry."
MassRoots, Inc. (OTCQB: MSRT) is one of the leading technology platforms for the regulated cannabis industry.

On December 27, 2017, the company announced a comprehensive action plan to aggressively scale its market share of cannabis consumers and businesses in the California market.

The campaign is focused on driving and rewarding referrals of users and paying businesses to the MassRoots platform.
