In recent weeks, MTRAC and Pegasus, along with additional companies they are currently working in collaboration with, have been working on the development of a token that will be aimed at revolutionizing the financial process that currently exists within the cannabis industry.
Coupled with blockchain technology, the token will not only provide businesses that are operating in the emerging cannabis industry with the most effective option for transaction processing, but will also create a level of effective transparency in an industry where the ability to track transactions from seed-to-sale is critical from a compliance perspective."
"Our vision is to create a fully intuitive financial network that interlocks the entire cannabis supply chain from seed-to-sale," said MTRAC COO, Vanessa Luna. "This token will do far more than just optimize the way businesses and consumers are able to process and complete basic transactions, but will create the kind of transparency that will deliver consumer safety and ensure regulatory requirements across a rapidly growing industry by making it possible to track every transaction from start to finish," Ms. Luna commented further.

On November 9, 2017, the company announced that it has completed its financing of $800,000 in cash and 15 million shares of the Company's common stock in full satisfaction of the amended terms of the joint venture agreement with Bougainville Ventures, Inc.
