FinancialBuzz.com News Commentary
NEW YORK, October 11, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --
According to a research report conducted by Grand View Research, Inc., the global medical cannabis market is projected to reach a value of USD 55.8 billion by 2025. After the elections in 2016, Washington D.C., along with 28 states, have legalized cannabis for medical use. The growing number of states and countries, where the use of cannabis products for therapeutic applications is accepted by law is a crucial factor that is expected to contribute to the growing demand over the next few years. Grand View Research indicates that several regulatory frameworks such as the Medical Marijuana Regulation and Safety Act, will require individuals or companies to obtain permission and also an annual state license from 2018. Companies such as growers, retail operators, and makers of processed pot products will be focused on, and an increasing number of issued licenses are also among factors helping to drive the market.

"I think the general statement is that our patient population has been waiting for safe access to medicine for about 17 years. There were countless requests to know where dispensaries were going to be located, when they would open, who was going to be the first to open and what products were they going to be carrying," explained Chris Garth, Executive Director of the Hawaii Dispensary Alliance, according to reported Marijuana Business Daily.
Global Payout, Inc. (OTC: GOHE) announced yesterday that its majority owned subsidiary, MoneyTrac Technology, Inc.

While terms and other pertinent details associated with the JV will be released upon the anticipated execution of it, MTRAC and its parent company, Global Payout, Inc., believe that it may translate into significant revenue earning opportunities for MTRAC as they will become one of a very select group of companies equipped with the necessary resources to deliver banking solutions within the multi-million-dollar cannabis industry."
"The potential surrounding the anticipated completion of this Joint Venture is absolutely huge for our MoneyTrac Technology brand," said MTRAC CEO, James Hancock. "MoneyTrac was launched almost exclusively to address the many different challenges that businesses in the cannabis industry face with trying to operate their legitimate business, and one of those challenges remains the lack of access many of them have to banking solutions. This JV would allow us to provide a much-needed solution to these businesses and put our company in a position to potentially secure a number of revenue generating service agreements that could most certainly create significant short and long-term revenue streams for us in addition to increasing the value of our service offerings for our clients within this industry," Mr. Hancock commented further.
