Agreed, anybody who gives this guy money is a glutton for punishment. He's at best, a really incompetent person, at worst he's a scam artist. IMO Bates is a little bit of both. I still have many worthless WSTI shares that I do not expect to ever see anything out of.

[mark5150]

That is a 2 year old article. I believe it is still on going and tied to WSTI as Impact PPA on telegram is still showing new employees joining, but we'll just have to wait and see. BYZN jumped 33% today.

Hello everyone I just seen this Block chain Impact PPA's project news with Dan Bates

How a Clean Energy Entrepreneur is Betting on Blockchain Dan Bates strives to provide energy to the powerless 1.2 billion people on earth as quickly as possible.

That's what CEO Dan Bates says he is pursuing with his company Impact PPA. I recently spoke with Bates about his mission to transform the entire global energy finance industry.

Can you elaborate on how non-governmental organizations and government agencies are impeding energy innovation?

Bates: NGOs and government agencies are mandated to follow certain guidelines, and unfortunately these guidelines create an often slow and inefficient process when it comes to funding new energy projects. From start to finish, it is not uncommon for NGO's or government agencies to take years to fund and complete an energy project. With ImpactPPA's project finance and energy management platform we are trying to cut that implementation time from years down to months and in some cases even weeks.

How did you come to the conclusion that it is important for ImpactPPA to use blockchain technology?

First, it offers access to capital through the crowd using the tokenization of Renewable Energy. Now, for the first time, a crowd of like-minded individuals can be connected with projects that are in need of capital and have a clear path to social good and revenue recognition. With the funds raised from the crowd we will be able to self finance all of our energy projects and bypass legacy financing. This solution creates a much faster and efficient deployment of energy to folks who, at present, do not have any power.

We also use the blockchain to manage our data and payment collection. The end users, or energy consumers, will pay for energy using our GEN credits on their mobile phones. In order for the end user to have access to energy they will need to interact with our smart meter that is connected to the blockchain. Smart meters will be located on the home or business and the end user will select the amount of power that they want (on their phone) and submit the appropriate number of GEN credits to the smart meter. This transaction is then mined and verified on the blockchain; when all of these steps are complete they receive energy and we receive payment.

Is ImpactPPA already working on installing finished projects?

Yes! We currently have working projects in Haiti, Jamaica, and India. But these are just the beginning; we have 183 MW around under contract in our pipeline that are shovel ready and waiting to be deployed.

LOL, I still have WSTI shares. They are worth nothing now, but are the shares still part of a viable legal and active company? Help me out please?

[MoneymanT]

Dan Bates is doing something good as the CEO at Byzen Digital Inc ,and this BYZN stock is moving up lately, so I hope he add WSTI with this company in some kind of way .

Quote > 0.088 +0.0165 ( +23.0769% )

[Trackman59]

He always was late filing. We were all hoping he would come back pay off his debts and get Wsti listed again while he pursued the business. It still hurts he jumped ships and now piloting another company leaving us as castaways now.

[MoneymanT]

Hi Everyone, I been watching this new company that Dan Bates been running BYZN ,and conversation on Yahoo finance I also seen this message that They released a notification of late filing. Go to OTC web plus I seen his stock staring to move up for the last 2 days.

Good morning,

You have consistently been the voice of reason on this page so I come to you for updates. What are you hearing / thoughts on 2021 ?

[mark5150]

Welcome back Blizz. Hope you're doing well. I think BYZN is already off the ground and has capitol, or otherwise they wouldn't have been able to acquire (2) new companies in the past few months, including Clean Seas and 100bio. I have seen on telegram at least (5) new impactPPA employees have joined in the past month or 2, and a few more than that in the past few months before, so so something is definitely going on with staffing up.

BYZN is gearing up for plastic recycling in "under served" countries so my guess is that WSTI and impactPPA will be powering up the recycling operations. At least that's my guess.

We'll have to wait and see how they are acquired from Dan and what will happen with the stock.

[Blizzld]

I hope so, it has been a long rode. Since 2015 for me. Cannot believe it is 2020 , 5 years later now.

I think the plan is to get this Byzen off the ground, do acquisitions, raise capital, grow the market value then use that value to perhaps give a shot at Impact/WSTI.

Dan knows I am around if he wants to run anything by me, and I have provided some ideas/contacts to him in the past. It is possible those circle around at some point.

Might take some time and Covid stuff makes world travel difficult and business way more difficult but hopefully things will get better/easier.

If Byzen raises funds, moves forward, stock market cap goes up, they can do a stock deal/stock swap and bring everything in. I think the material I read talks about renewable energy so I think that is the plan.

Unrelatedly but something I mentioned a while back. I have a small amount in a stock that is on the Canadian venture exchange. It has been halted for about 2 years now. First it was going to be a blockchain company but that deal fell through, then it tried to buy a pot company with retail stores and even home delivery in California, but then Covid happened. Now it finally has bought Gold assets and property mining rights , found some gold on the property, merged with another company is doing a 1 for 5 reverse split and should be coming out on a better exchange shortly. So sometimes things happen over very long periods of time.

[Trackman59]

What a fu*kin joke this guy is. He let Wsti drown. Must have ditched Impactppa. And now he is playing with plastic food containers.

Hi Blizzld ,I bought WSTI back in year 2014 ,and still have plenty shares ,plus I also follow you Frank ,and Rah for many years ,but I never respond to your post till last year ,and now I think Dan might get things going next year with the new company he's the CEO of, so I wish all the best.

[Blizzld]

Hey guys,

Someone messaged me to check the board out.

I have not heard from Dan in a while. Originally his intent was to raise money for BYZN, do some deals which would build the market cap and I believe at least attempt to get ImpactPPA and WSTI out of the fire. But to do that he needed to raise some money (not sure if that got done).

Even if he did raise money, it would not be enough initially to clean up WSTI. Though he might have more leverage now as any creditors cannot really get anything.

I would think any deal would be some kind of stock swap which might dilute us a lot but we have a zero price, delisted stock now so anything is better than nothing.

Regardless of the posts I just read that someone posted below I still think this is all a very long shot.

[MoneymanT]

Hi everyone I just went you Yahoo to see what Dan Bates is doing as the CEO BYZN Stock ,and I see these 6 message on the reactions on $BYZN
conversation board.

https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/BYZN/community?p=BYZN


4 days ago
I believe the next news will be another acquire which can be Impact PPA and after that they will announce the compete process of UP LISTING .

The Company has stated that it seeks to complete this process in the coming months and to engage in additional acquisitions in the clean energy sector. Byzen recently announced its first acquisition of Clean Seas, Inc. a waste to energy company focused on turning waste plastics into clean energy and clean fuels.


9 days ago
Somebody needs to tell this clueless CEO that after the "shorts" push the stock price down to 0 in the next 6 weeks that he won't have any money to run the company. You need money to run a company. How come all the other CEOs already know this and he does not???


22 days ago
Since this new guy has taken over as CEO, the stock has lost almost 50% of its value in less than 2 months from 23.8 to 12. He might be in the running for the worse CEO ever....


26 days ago
The new CEO must be going through a 2 month new employee orientation because he hasn't as of yet started doing his job.


last month
This new CEO is not doing his job. The only thing he has succeeded in doing since he took over almost 2 months ago is to see the stock plummet from 23.8 to 14.5. Any good CEO will keep his investors informed as to what he has planned to do with THEIR money. How does he expect to generate new investors when nobody knows what is going on. The shorts will take this down to 0 before the end of the year.

[mark5150]

I sort of disagree, although him trading patent rights is not out of the realm of possibilities. BYZN is gearing up to recycle plastic waste into fuels for energy and Eco Diesel and carbon Black. The recycling (pyrolosis) process needs power, and all of this is going to happen in "under served economies" based on their website. WSTI is a perfect fit in that scenario as emerging areas of the work have no reliable grid power to speak of for the process.

Anyway, just my opinion.

[44dan]

His past record would not impress another company. IMO, trading the patient rights or some other tangible item would be the only way for Dan to hire on as CEO of any company.

[double_m]

Why would you say that? Byzen doesn't appear, or at least hasn't announced, to be in the solar/wind business. I know their shareholders are extremely frustrated with him because of no news since clean seas.

[44dan]

I imagine that dan has traded the patient rights to secure his current position. If so, that would strip WSTI and her investors of all value. We will be left with nothing but worthless paper.

[mark5150]

Any ideas on what would be the scenario if BYZN acquired WSTI? Would there be a stock conversion? It seems like Dan might be in a position for this to happen, particularly since BYZN is a "clean energy" company now as evidenced by its acquisition of Clean Seas.
I am really hopeful that something is in the works with this move of Dan's.

Blizz? Anyone got any speculations?

[Trackman59]

Renewable energy is on the rise again. Hoping like all of you that Dan can get his company Wsti back into the game. Getting delisted reversed is not hard if proven he can show a business is back.

[double_m]

Well, his India aspirations are shot...besides the virus issues, there's a lot going on politically. Like you, I will keep a close eye on developments and try to remain cautiously optimistic here. May take some time, but I'm fine with it.

[A27]

I was just looking at their news and noticed that as well, and believe me I would love for this to work out and looks like Dan is positioning himself to help fund impactppa and wsti. So with his history I believe he may be trying to do that, and I hope he can and is successful. He seems to always be trying but I have become pessimistic on his abilities but simultaneously excited that he is still in the game somehow.

Excerpt from BYZN acquisition announcement for Clean-Seas


Byzen Digital acquired Clean-Seas in order to have a foundation to build upon in the sustainable energy sector. Byzen believes that in the near term, a significant growth sector of the economy will be in clean energy and sustainable products and services, which was a key driver for this acquisition.

https://www.otcmarkets.com/stock/BYZN/news/Byzen-Digital-Completes-Acquisition-of-Clean-Seas-Creating-Next-Generation-Waste-Plastic-Recycling-Company?id=263266

Ironically, a relatively new member to ihub has been providing bits and pieces of info that, when put together, seem to point to the potential for a comeback.

[A27]

It’s delisted so no point in promoting this as there won’t be any pumps to dump lol. And if it can come out from being delisted then it’s worth pumping.

[double_m]

Things are becoming clear that someone on this board is promoting $WSTI. I hope this doesn't turn out to be a P&D stunt, but I can see a potential play brewing.

[A27]

Great thank you. Would be nice if wsti came out of the ashes but I’m not confident or hopeful about Dans ability to make something happen based on his history.

[MoneymanT]

Hi all I seen from the Yahoo link is . >

There is Q2 released , go to OTC web.


https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/BYZN/community?p=BYZN

[A27]

Any info on the Q2 release mentioning anything about wsti?

[MoneymanT]

Hi everyone I been watching Dan Bates as the new CEO at BYZN ,and today I open yahoo reactions on $BYZN conversation ,and seen this message below.

> A little extra volume, this morning. 6 out of the last 7 days are up. My MACD lines have crossed. The RSI has crept up to 50. Some SEC filings have just occurred. a news release is due, any day.

https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/BYZN/community?p=BYZN

I hope he's trying to get WSTI back listed.

Glta

[sambeaux]

Checking in. But nothing new (knew). eom

[mark5150]

It would be nice just to get it listed again.

[rstar]

well that’s an understatement....

[Trackman59]

Hey Dan, your loyal shareholders here are waiting for you to make us some money from the $400 million pipeline you had going!

[highstreettrader]

I understand Dan didn't have the best performance with WSTI. I've been invested in BYZN for several months now since before he came in as CEO. He came on board as part of the recent acquisition of a company called Clean-Seas which is based around ocean clean up and renewable energy. It looked like there was some interesting tech being used or at least in development by Windstream and also ImpactPPA. Curious to see how this all comes together as there have not been a lot of details released since the acquisition just yet.

[A27]

Many times since 2015 I have thought WSTI was dead. Somehow I guess if Dan survives wsti survives. And RSH is back so your saying there’s a chance.

[Trackman59]

Time to rev up Wsti machine!

[Trackman59]

Time to rev up Wsti machine!

[rsh]

I don't know much about this BYZN company that Dan now runs. There is a board "BYZN" and if one reads some of the posts there are links to some public information.

This is the OTC story that I can find:
https://www.otcmarkets.com/stock/BYZN/news/story?e&id=1640238

Whether or not WSTI and/or ImpactPPA get merged or not is not known. I spoke with Blizz and perhaps he will speak with Dan after the tax season rush passes today. It appears that Dan will start out trying to get funding with a Reg A offering. Info is really limited.

[Donzee]

Is he still considered CEO of WSTI?

[mark5150]

I wont even hazard a guess what this means for us, just that Dan got himself a job. Did a few searches of boards for BYZN and most of it looks like it may be a bullish company at the moment. I'd like to think he'd bring along Windstream and Impact to any potential projects.

[Trackman59]

News came out couple days ago I guess. Go to Globenewswire
Look for BYZN Byzen Digital. Dan Bates is their CEO. So Dan ditched us and his debt? Wsti too? What do you guys make of this?

[eugenecj]

OK.I'll bite

[Trackman59]

Hey board, Dan has a new job.

[Smilin_B]

What a shame what happened here.

Dan should be held accountable for causing this stock to be deregistered

[Smilin_B]

Dan is too embarrassed to show himself

[mark5150]

Wouldn't that be nice. Actually, it would be nice just to heard from Dan. I imagine all the legal issues are out in the open already so some sort of release isn't out of the question.

[Trackman59]

So I hear today on news that solar and wind renewable energy looks again on the grid to get this going. Coal energy looks to slow down after all. Dan get Wsti fixed with legal issues and become the front runner here in our country.

[BayTrader280]

Maybe a Reverse Merger on the horizon?

[Stiggie]

DAN BATES IS A CROOK AND SHOULD BE IN JAIL FOR MISLEADING INVESTORS!
