Great movement here, been accumulating since April but at a higher price than now, so was glad to be able to average down on the last dip, just wasn't on my radar screen but it is now, this one has lots of potential for +$1 :)
I love VeChain and have been accumulating. There is some good reading out there, I think as the year progresses this one will surprise a few. When big names like PriceWaterhouseCooper and Salesforce get involved, it turns heads and warrants a more serious look, IMHO :)
For reading here are some very recent articles:

I'm enjoying the turbulence, it's allowing me to create better positions in my first ever cypto portfolio. I'm liking where VET, ANKR, and Hedera are right now. My gut tells me coins with a true utility and use case will skyrocket at some point later this year and there are plenty of sleepers out there, one of the reasons I really am grateful for this board and the knowledge gained from others such as yourself xZx!
Crypto scares the hell out of the authoritarian regimes. Notice the trend? Turkey, China, Iran. These are countries where the theme is to subjugate and persecute and punish. To a certain extent even India has a raised eyebrow last I read somewhere. Great way to suppress the population, deny them of hope and freedom of choices. Then we have the free world where crypto is allowing millions to make choices they thought they'd never have or be able to achieve.
Looks like China is tightening it's policy on crypto and giving a gut punch to miners there, I'm curious to see how crypto mining interests will now heat up with competition elsewhere. Maybe some short term buying opps coming our way :)
China bans financial, payment institutions from cryptocurrency business
I love his enthusiasm, I watch his channel and it's grown quite a lot in the past several weeks as excitement about DOGE has been building. Aside from Matt Wallace, I love Upshod on YouTube as well, he gives balanced and substantive information on crypto, and right now is quite bullish on a few that many of us are in, including DOGE and others.
Upshod
So glad you started this board xZx! Started following you earlier this year when I was exploring crypto, now the other boards are overrun with too much noise. Will be nice to come here and have some chat with substance!

Diamond Core Drill Rig to be Airlifted to LBSR’s Big Chunk Super Project: Immediate Drilling to Begin
TUCSON, Ariz.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Liberty Star Uranium & Metals Corp. (“Liberty Star” or the “Company”) (LBSR: OTCQB) is pleased to announce Jim Stevens, Nikovena Camp general contractor, has sent word that the diamond core drill rig is being airlifted to the Company’s top priority target on the Big Chunk Super Project, south block and plans to begin exploratory drilling on Wednesday, August 22nd.
The 40,000 pound rig is going to be airlifted from Anchorage to Iliamna by DC-3 aircraft, and then slung by helicopter to Target 1, (of 12) drill site 1, where drilling will commence. The drill site is fully prepared to accommodate immediate drilling. It is expected the drilling crew could drill up to 200 feet per day on the first hole. Should all go as planned, the company can expect core drilling to continue into early September.
Liberty Star CEO and Chief Geologist Jim Briscoe states, “My congratulations to Jim Stevens and his team; much planning and effort went into getting the drill rig to the field. LBSR will log the core as it comes out of the hole, using the tools as described in recent News Release 133 dated August 6, 2012. After logging and sawing the core in half, one half will be sent under NI43-101 protocols for sample preparation and assay.”

Agreed. Maybe a nice pop when we actually get the "drilling has commenced" news release.
Liberty Star Airlifting Diamond Core Drill to Copper/Gold/Moly Big Chunk Camp, Alaska
TUCSON, Ariz.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Liberty Star Uranium & Metals Corp. (“Liberty Star” or the “Company”) (LBSR: OTCQB) is pleased to announce that the Liberty Star field camp construction managed by Alaskan Native owned MBGS LLC is on schedule. MBGS general contractor Jim Stevens states that his team will begin to airlift housing and a diamond core drill rig to the Native allotment camp site within the Big Chunk Super Project (“BCSP”) south block beginning the week of August 5; the camp is scheduled to be operational by August 10.
Heavy equipment and housing will be transported by a high-lift Huey chopper, while staff and light equipment will be transported by a small helicopter. Twelve people will be in the camp, including Alaskan Native MBGS staff, drill crews and geologic staff. The spartan camp includes basic amenities and a broad-band Internet over satellite hook-up.
On August 8 the Company’s Field Manager and Lead Field Technician Jay Crawford and Porphyry Copper specialist Geologist Greg McGilvray will meet in Vancouver, BC to receive training on the new MBGS Innov-X handheld GPS XRF Analyzer. The new handheld analyzer uses a miniaturized X-ray tube with electronically cooled silicon detectors to provide fast metal content measurements with accuracy and precision in the field prior to formal assay. Jay Crawford has spent many months using this type of equipment, but will receive updated training with the new analyzer. From Vancouver, the two will fly to Anchorage and then to Port Alsworth, Alaska. Jay and Greg will helicopter to the BCSP camp shortly after. The drill rig is scheduled for arrival at the BCSP camp at about the same time. Drilling on the proposed 10 holes can start within a few days of the drill’s delivery to the field. In addition to the Innov-X Analyzer, the geologic team will be equipped with other sophisticated gear that will make field analysis more accurate and less subject to error. The onsite team will be able to communicate immediate analysis of core and send data via satellite Internet connection to the head office in Tucson or any other location for specialists to review and render their professional analysis.
This equipment in addition to the XRF includes:
Data Collector – a pocket PC with camera, GPS, bar code reader and software designed by Technical Advisory Board member Mike Schaefer of Geo-Information Solutions. Liberty Star was among his first users during the 2004 field season. The Data Collector hardware and software are newly enhanced for the current drilling effort. It will be used to geologically log core and integrate other sensor data into the geology.
High resolution digital photographic equipment for complete imaging of all core, including close up images of important intervals.
Gamma ray spectrometer which will measure any low grade (not dangerous) radioactivity in the core and in particular show the presence of secondary potassium feldspar: one of the key alteration minerals that occur at the center of the core zone of porphyry coppers so we can tell when we are getting close. The gamma ray spectrometer also detects uranium, one of the alteration metals, and thorium a rare earth metal.
A magnetic and electronic susceptibility meter which determines the relative magnetism of the core and its relationship to porphyry copper alteration zoning.
A powerful ultraviolet light to determine the presence of any fluorescent minerals that may be helpful in detecting zoning patterns.
A computer microscope that visually enlarges minerals in the core up to +100X and displays images of them in color on a computer screen, where notes may be made directly on the image and then sent to memory, so it can be transmitted via Internet to the Tucson office, as well as combined in the digital core log. An optical binocular zoom microscope will also be available.
All of these devices are digital (with the exception of the optical microscope) and their data will be recorded with the data logger, and joined with the geologic log of the core. All data will be recorded on the Big Chunk field camp computer server and then transmitted by a satellite uplink to the Internet and batch transmitted to Tucson overnight every night and captured on the Tucson office server for distribution and analysis by the appropriate experts on our Technical Advisory Board, as well as Chief Geologist Jim Briscoe and other specialists when needed.
After all data collection, the core is cut in half (split) using a diamond saw. Half of each 10 foot interval will be bagged and secured in locked storage controlled by Jay Crawford. The samples will be shipped by helicopter, and then by Federal Express to the MEG sample prep lab near Reno, Nev. As required by regulation, a chain of custody is recorded at every stop; this is to prevent tampering with the drill core so it cannot be adulterated (“salted”) with any foreign material either intentionally or accidently. After sample preparation, including addition of Quality Assurance Quality Control (QA/QC) samples, assay pulps of about 200 grams from each sample interval will be air shipped to ALS Certified assay labs in Vancouver, B.C. Canada. After assay ALS will ship assays by e-mail to the Tucson office where it will be combined with the visual core log and all the other collected data. These data logs will then be analyzed by our geologic team and conclusions made. All this takes time but news releases will be made after drill core is evaluated.

Forward-Looking Statements
Statements in this news release that are not historical are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements in this news release include that the BCSP camp will be operational by August 10, that a diamond core drill rig will be airlifted to the camp site, that drilling can proceed within days of its arrival, and that drill core will be obtained and prepared for assay. Factors which may delay or prevent these forward-looking statements from being realized include: the failure of our exploration program to identify targets; we may not be able to raise sufficient funds to complete our intended exploration, keep our properties or carry on operations; and an inability to continue exploration due to weather, logistical problems, labor or equipment problems or hazards even if funds are available. Despite encouraging data there may be no commercially exploitable mineralization on our properties. Readers should refer to the risk disclosures in the Company’s recent 10-K and the Company’s other periodic reports filed from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Awesome! Yes, determined they are - I too think we might have some news with Tony sharing more updates on progress with Mustang Island. Looking forward to the action here IMO, any panic sellers misreading weather events will simply be helping some determined longs get more shares
I know what I own!
exactly xzx... nothing to worry about Lately it seems like Tony is really on a mission to keep us informed and execute as planned with the events at I-1.
Here is the latest forecast track from NOAA and the National Weather Service as of this morning.... have a look, go to the weather websites and then you can decide how worried you think you should be... Notice how the northern most edge of the "cone of uncertainty" keeps this as a "south of the border" event.... too far south to even warrant being worried about this now. I look forward to a positive week with possibly more updates, IMHO.
And that is the news that will definitely make the market notice and cause a nice move here We are all waiting for that one!
I doubt it for right now, unfortunately this stock has a history of being shorted to death... literally.... the CEO of this company comments about it on the blog, it's an obvious source of frustration for them.
http://blog.pdv.hu/
I'm liking your speculation on why they increased the diameter - makes sense!
Sweet!! Progress, I love it!
I completely and wholeheartedly agree with you on that This will be fun to watch!
Just got back from the Chicago meeting....
Long time lurker, first time poster to the LBSR board, there's nothing new to report, not going to rehash all that's been mentioned from previous meetings, however some points that he made implicitly clear were as follows:
He likes the FH deal, and there is a possibility of extending the terms/draw downs, would be happy to use the funds along with PPs along the way, bottom line is the time to drill has arrived.
He mentioned that parties that previously were not interested are now interested in providing cash, but he is being cautious. He talked about the "verbal" Chinese offer to finance $200M drilling campaign if scout drilling verifies that the goods are there. He seemed confident about funds being available, but nothing is guaranteed at the moment in regards to the potential Chinese involvement. He also likes the idea of a Native Alaskan Indian entity being involved and is exploring that idea. LBSR seems to have a distinctly better relationship than NAK with the local native population.
Drilling at Big Chunk will happen BEFORE Sept 1.
Drilling at Tombstone sometime in October.
Drilling at North Pipes sometime in spring.
Hay Mountain itself is turning out to be another super project and could be as big as Big Chunk in scope and value. He himself was caught off guard by this, but was very pleased that so many promising targets were revealed.
There were about 17 people attending..and more than a few people walked away with paperwork for PPs and were asking questions.
JB knows his stuff, knows what he's doing, and I am ready for some major action over the next weeks/months/years. I walked away confident with the knowledge of knowing he is guiding the process and that we may within a short time be a company holding the worlds largest copper/gold deposits and will be amazed at remembering how I got into this for mere pennies Just hang on guys.... after a long time I think I can see that launch pad finally!
noticed that as well... it's been months since I had any contact with Abe, last communication was that financing was hard to come by but still the main goal.
Let's see if the games continue today..... the CEO addressed yesterdays trading in his blog update today, also noting that .35 seems to be the limit for shorting....
It will be interesting to watch this one and see what happens as time progresses and more news is released.... with a tighter share structure wouldn't it be harder to find shares to short this? I've never been exactly sure how you short penny stocks, but this one is just insane......
Insane. Period. Up 70% at one point, and finished the day in the red by more than 25% below the open.......... WOW.
What gets me is the outright viciousness with which this gets shorted when news comes out.... it's dead here otherwise.... somebody, somewhere, has an agenda on this one and it's so obvious.... i mean we've been floating in the 20s for a few days, then news, we get healthy buying and a nice bounce into the .30s, then BAM, the individual or group woke up and shorted the crap out of this and we're down to .15............ go figure!
The CEO of the company has a blog: http://blog.pdv.hu/
He is totally aware and shocked at the fact that somebody is trying to literally destroy this company.
I had a comfortable position here and knew I would have to watch L2 like a hawk to get out, this is insane what's going on here....
totally.... i got in at .08, so I'm good and most of my shares were sold in the last run so I made decent profit, but I still have a little stash leftover
interesting to watch... kind of like the battle between good and evil today, lol. I still have some skin in this game, having bought quite low last July/August. Last time we had this kind of volume a few weeks back, we almost nudged .50 cents, I'm hopeful for a decent turn around here........ let's see!
Yes, it's a shame, you can see the antics on L2, every single time this stock has great news to push it to decent heights, some entity is determined to destroy the momentum.....
Some good news here today.....
Power of the Dream Ventures, Inc. (OTCBB: PWRV), Hungary's premier technology acquisition and development company, today announced several steps taken to further strengthen shareholder value in anticipation of producing the company's first revenue in 2012.
On April 5, 2012, the Company filed a Preliminary Information statement announcing several Corporate Action items, including:
the reduction of the authorized shares of common stock from 250,000,000 to 50,000,000 without affecting the issued and outstanding shares of the Company's common stocks
an increase in the par value of the Company's common stock and preferred stock from $.0001 per share to $.001 per share
and the creation of a class of Series B Preferred stock. Each Series B Preferred share shall have two votes and shall vote together with the common shares of the Company, each share of Series B Preferred shall not be convertible; each share of Series B Preferred shall be deemed the equivalent of two (2) shares of the Company's common stock for the purpose of calculating the participation in all cash distributions or stock dividends
These Corporate Actions require a mandatory return of all certificates to the Company's Transfer agent for processing and re-issuance.
"With these corporate actions, we are looking to further strengthen our share count position. I believe that the reduction of our issued and outstanding shares to 50 million shows that we are not looking to dilute our common base. The creation of the Series B Preferred is in anticipation of our near term fund raising goal, in which new, long term investors will receive these shares to further reduce our common dilution. I anticipate that 2012 will finally produce our first, significant revenue, revenue we will use to invests in / acquire additional technologies," Mr. Rozsnyay added.
My thoughts exactly.
yup... and the steady stream of buying now at .003 continues.... weird for sure, I just wish we could get some good solid news here, this can still be a 10 bagger to three or four cents, IF Abe can come through
yup... somebody's trying to get their 30 trades per quarter in for free L2 on Etrade!!
I noticed that myself on L2.... 10K increments every few minutes for almost the last 45 minutes....
Sad really.... yesterday we should have bumped up near .50 with the volume, minus the short activity.... and today they are beating us back down, and yes, this is how groups of shorts destroy small companies... pathetic.
