PotNetwork Holdings Inc. Senior Advisor Bruce Barren recently confirmed that the Company’s $2 million monthly revenue run rate for both January and February of 2018 sets the stage for the firm to meet and exceed its Q1 ’18 revenue projection of $6,000,000.

PotNetwork Holdings Inc.’s wholly owned subsidiary Diamond CBD Inc. has been driving the company’s tremendous growth in 2018.

The hemp-derived compound known as CBD (cannabidiol) has emerged as an extremely promising substance for boosting health and wellness in both humans and animals. CBD products can be ingested in beverages and foods, absorbed through the skin via lotions, creams, salves, or vaporized and inhaled.

Many leading scientists and medical researchers, including those of the World Health Organization , have determined that CBD offers a range of medical health benefits without the potential to be abused or cause harm in users.

Key research published in May of 2017 in the New England Journal of Medicine found CBD therapies to be effective in treating seizures. This study was randomized, double-blind and placebo-controlled to promote the validity and reliability of the research findings.

While CBD-rich marijuana strains have likely been used medically by humans for more than 10,000 years, the combination of legal prohibition and illicit cultivation focused on generating higher THC levels, made CBD therapy an afterthought until very recently.

In just the first 60 days of 2018, PotNetwork Holding Inc. generated $4 million in sales. Compared with 2017, this represents growth of over 300%. This clearly demonstrates the immense potential for the global growth of CBD as encapsulated by a key performance indicator from one of the United States’ most successful vendors.
