Year after year, it becomes increasingly evident the urgency to address climate change and take responsibility for the impacts caused by humans to the planet. As we face the consequences of rising temperatures and environmental degradation, thousands of individuals and companies are seeking solutions to contribute to the environment, utilizing sustainable practices, resource efficiency, renewable energy, and more.

Kanna emerges in this context, forming a community that aims to generate positive environmental and social impact by combining sustainable practices in cannabis cultivation with the transparency of the blockchain network. We envision a future where cannabis cultivation not only provides high-quality products for various industries but also contributes to carbon offsetting and ecological restoration.

In this article that inaugurates Kanna’s updates page for the community, we will briefly summarize what we have been able to build so far:

• Kanna entered the market in October 2022 with a highly anticipated launch that captured the interest of both the cannabis and crypto asset markets, garnering mentions in major media such as Exame and Revista Fórum.
• In November 2022, we had our first smart contracts audited by CoinFabrik, including the ERC-20 contract of the KNN token, the pre-sale smart contract, and the Stake Pool program smart contract, which is set to launch in the near future.
• We kicked off 2023 with the pre-sale of KNN tokens in an amazing event at Login EXP in Vila Madalena, where we provided a wealth of content and information about the project to the attendees. Participants also had the opportunity to enjoy products from the cannabis industry, such as chocolates and even a special drink crafted by the mixologists, incorporating plant terpenes.
• We launched our first dApp, enabling people from around the world to contribute to the project by acquiring tokens on the Ethereum network at reduced prices. And for Brazilians, it was even easier: the Kanna platform in its first version allowed token acquisition via Pix, with or without the need for a crypto wallet.
• The team continued to grow, incorporating important individuals from the cannabis and crypto asset worlds. We welcomed Sinapse Social and their wealth of experience to the group as partners of Kanna. Additionally, we added prominent figures to our advisory board, such as Robson Harada.
• We continued to evolve our dApp, which now displays real-time data on the KNN token economy. The platform also gained an English version, making it easier for people from around the world to access the impact of the Kanna community.

We continue to build new features, and the Kanna team is excited to show you everything we are creating. Stay tuned for more updates and exciting developments from our team. This is just the beginning of our community’s story, and together we will work towards a sustainable environment and a more just and equal society.
