Rodman’s trip is being “sponsored” by PotCoin, a peer-to-peer cryptocurrency that’s trying to be the Bitcoin of the legal weed industry. Rodman was even sporting a PotCoin.com t-shirt when he landed on a flight from Beijing to Pyongyang this morning.
Rodman's agent Chris Volo commented, “He’s the only man to have the relationship and be friends with both people, and he’s going there tomorrow to try and bridge the gap and bring peace and dialogue between both nations and PotCoin is the reason we’re going out there.”
Rodman thanked PotCoin in the video and said that he was traveling to support peace between the United States and North Korea. It’s not immediately clear how much Rodman is being paid to promote PotCoin.
“We just want to thank the people that actually supported us, PotCoin, thank you very much, and hope that we can come back with a positive attitude,” Rodman said. “And hopefully that the door can be a little bit open.”
“So give us luck and praise us for doing what we’re doing. It’s all about doing one thing. It’s all about peace,” said Rodman.
