at last! By the way, I will introduce a blockchain project called Pi Network, which was founded by a team led by a postdoctoral fellow at Stanford University . The purpose is to establish a decentralized economic ecosystem, which mainly uses Pi coins as a medium to achieve real-time point-to-point transactions anywhere in the world. !

I hope that after the project is officially launched, I can open an online store on Pi Network, which mainly sells cannabis-related products, and only accepts Pi coin transactions (the buyer can buy products that comply with the laws of his country). And now Pi coins can also be obtained for free, as long as you can download the Pi Network app through the following QR code quick link, if you need the invitation code, please enter: kyle2051 (use this code after the 4th day to speed up by 25%)
