According to data published by Energias Market Research, the global medical cannabis market is expected to grow significantly from USD 8.28 billion in 2017 to USD 28.07 billion in 2024, at a CAGR of 19.1% from 2018 to 2024. Factors driving the growth of the medical cannabis market include growing recognition of medical benefits, increasing demand for cannabis in the treatment of various diseases, and growing number of research and development activities. In the U.S, there are 28 states which have approved the use of cannabis for medical purposes. In major markets like Colorado, California, Alaska, Massachusetts and Nevada, cannabis is legal for recreational use. Global Payout, Inc. (OTC: GOHE), Organigram Holdings Inc.

The potential financial benefits from the legalization are important economically and politically. Fortune reported 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) on March 8th announced breaking news that, "its subsidiary MoneyTrac Technology, Inc. ("MTRAC", the "Company") is launching a Regulation D 506(c) offering that will be centered around the Company's MTRAC-Token™. The Company plans to use this new token to accomplish its goal of "Banking the UnbankableTM". This press release is not being used for the purpose of solicitating the market for any of the securities offered (see disclaimer below).

The launch of the raise and MTRAC-Token is both the culmination of months spent building crucial relationships and marks the beginning of something much larger for the Company. MTRAC views itself as a "New Age Technology Holding Company," through its network of partnerships and affiliate clients, pioneering a course in the cannabis industry into what has been dubbed the "New Gold Rush." As the cannabis industry currently faces the challenges with banking accessibility and electronic payment solution availability, MTRAC intends to utilize this raise as the resource needed to deliver the solutions they have been co-developing to this rapidly growing industry. With this opportunity MTRAC will work to address some of the industry's biggest challenges by facing them head on and introducing "The New Age of Currency"

Said MTRAC CEO, Vanessa Luna: "The MTRAC-Token™ is a unique type of investment opportunity providing investors a way to be involved in revolutionizing a multitude of industries. Our singular focus over the past several months has been meticulously piecing together our powerful network of partners, which combines two of the most influential and newly successful industries of our generation, cannabis and blockchain technology. We at MoneyTrac are a team of innovators working to develop and introduce the solutions necessary to give businesses operating in the legal cannabis sector the specific tools needed to flourish. There has never been a time like the present, when technology and finance converge to create viable, and much needed, solutions in a burgeoning new industry, which is expected to grow exponentially over the next few years. This is the opportunity -- this is The MTRAC-Token™."
