In this episode of Unhidden, we talk with Matt Aaron from Crazy Calm CBD Coffee.

Many of the challenges inherent in running any kind of cannabis-based business in the current national patchwork quilt of legalization involve the fact that without federal legalization, financial management is an extremely difficult proposition.

From the challenge of obtaining basic banking services to the inability to raise capital - or even process payments - cannabis business are often desperately hamstrung by the inability to manage their finances in a safe and secure way.

Fortunately for Matt, he’d spent time in the cryptocurrency world, and saw the potential for electronic currencies like Bitcoin to help do an end run around this problem.
