I don't think you can treat it like a commodity exchange (futures contracts for N tons of soybeans, for example), even if you restict the platform only to dried flower bud product and ignore every other form of cannabis, due to the extreme variety of types of flower and plant. It would be like trying to have a chicago mercantile exchange commodity platform for wine.

I realize this is a real thing, but "investment grade wine" sounds like such a preposterously stereotypical WASP thing... I'm sure they have a storage facility in the Hamptons.
This is in England. The country that gave the world the original WASPs.
Extreme variety of types of plant is a bit.. overstated.. since inter-plant variation is probably just as significant.
