Many industries have integrated blockchain technology into their production process, with the aim of certifying, tracking and making transparent the information recorded. And among these, there is also the sector dedicated to medical cannabis.
In fact, even today, it seems that medical cannabis, blockchain and crypto are all moving in the same direction, since the sectors are all booming, do not have a clear regulation that manages them and, in recent years, continue to register large volumes of money.
In particular, some projects have precipitated on this connection, putting in their core-business the coexistence between these worlds and creating medical cannabis projects on the blockchain.
In essence, among the two thousand cryptocurrencies in circulation, many of them are tokens or cryptocurrencies that represent a specific blockchain (some private and others permissionless) linked to the cannabis world.

Malta and the regulation of medical cannabis
The issue of regulations for the crypto and cannabis sectors has enabled the state of Malta, called the Blockchain Island, to expand its vision through events that continue to invite innovative companies from these worlds.
Following the success of the SiGMA and Malta A.I. & Blockchain Summit, the island also hosted the Medical Cannabiz World event on 4-5 November 2019.
