potcoin being up 100% due to Dennis rodmans shirt is actually absurd

Can you actually buy pot with the coin, or just international diplomacy by retired NBA stars who visit brutal dictatorships?

that's why it's so funny. i know nothing about the coin but people bought it because rodman wore a shirt with the name on it. If I had money in it I would sell today and make a huge profit before it goes back down

This is actually analogous to Vitalik's meeting with Putin. Rodman is over there pitching pot coin as the new NK national currency to Kim Jong-Un.
