Just passing time while we wait on Thom.
I didn't realize you had no pass times other that trading stocks.
Community can share more than one thing while we wait on news, no?

Go Navy! Owl, hang in there... I hope 2025 shapes up as I think it will. I can't make this stock go up but I think (finally) we have the pieces coming together. Still a HUGE speculation but... you know that already. :) If you enjoy Whiskey... I'll ship you a bottle of my favorite when we hit $3/share. Can't promise it will get there but when you see the price. you'll understand.

My family is from Edinburgh and generations NAVY (UK and and here) and we take our whiskey fairly seriously. Price has actually dropped. My last bottle was over $1000 USD.

Thank you for the invite to your beautiful city. It is on my list for 2025. I travel to Europe and the UK often and have been intrigued by Spain but somehow keep getting pulled to Portugal by friends (and an Ex) ;) I will be heading to Ibiza (finally) next Summer and I do have friends in Barcelona I will be visiting.

Live life to the fullest!
Cheers

Hey Owl. I'm good. Had fun at the Olympics in Paris... watched Beach Volleyball from the Eiffel Tower beside official Olympic photographers.
I don't see a ton happening here until the Spring but that should be good to accumulate a little more on the cheap (speaking about myself).
It is still speculative... Thom isn't young and anything can happen but still happy here.
How are things with you?

Check my updated profile pic taken from the tower.

Thanks for your concern I wish you all the best in your investments. As much as this is a speculative investment... there are things at play here that bring me comfort and with my experience in this market space... I remain unconcerned. It will take a strong stomach but I will make substantial gains here. It's not tomorrow but as I mentioned... I am comfortable adding up to .70/share. Now, is that today? No. This will rise and rise. Some will add low... others will wait too long. They will watch it rise and fret. That's fair. That;s normal. If they finally get the courage to pull the trigger... good on them. I just wouldn't add above .70.

Time will reveal all. Sit back.. add or don't.
Blowhards will attack... let them. They are usually the ones who add while they crap on the stock.

Who would sit here day in day out and crap on an investment they can't short but claim they don't own the stock. I say BS.

Cheers!

So it has taken longer than expected but the plans are coming together here. I expect share price to hold and steadily rise now. I might add more but beat up investors (in other held stocks) may dump some here as part of tax loss selling with EOY approaching.. but as expected... it looks like Thom is aligning with the Crypto cycle. Check the 4 year pattern if you are unfamiliar. Next Spring things should heat up... just my opinion and worth what you paid me for it ;)

Enjoy life. Get outside and enjoy what you can when & where you can. Set lowball bids.. fish a little here.. WDDD is gearing up. I feel very comfortable in my past predictions and anything up to .70/share still feels good to me for adding. I will always prefer to add low but .70 is my personal highest I will add here. Anyone who thinks the stock market isn't choppy and sensitive to liquidity is naive.

In my life, when people misquote me.. it's usually been to deflect from their bad behavior. We're all adults here on a speculative investment. Use your own DD, it's your money you use. Anyone here can review my past posts for what I really said... trusting other posters to verify something so easily checked yourself is nonsensical.

Look back at the launch of MRMD... when the momentum players (hot money folks) come in on this illiquid float... we should see dollars per share

We all get to choose who we listen to... look to how much someone posts with attacks on others and act like they need to protect others... classic manipulator.

Nothing in life is guaranteed except death & taxes.
I like that Thom has taken payment in equity on much here and otherwise has not diluted much. Check other companies in this end of the market.... he wants to get paid himself and this looks to be his last chance at a large win before retirement.

GLTA.... still a speculative stock. Keep that in mind and refrain from overexposing yourself in case it doesn't pan out.

Sell at your own peril.
I'm off to Scotland then over to Paris for the Olympics.
Get out and enjoy your Summer... only bellyaching and trash talking going on in here. Set alerts if you think it will help you manage your exposure.

Cheers!

Clearly you are upset sir, stop putting words in my mouth and direct your complaints to Thom.
It's Friday... enjoy the beautiful weather. Trying to force something we have no control over will only add stress.... it will happen on it's schedule.
The BIG money which far exceeds any investment by anyone on this Board, will set the terms.

What a race! My boys came in 2&4: Team McLaren. The Paddock was amazing. Port Hecules parked Super Yachts did not disappoint. Weather was perfect. People are so welcoming and friendly in the Cote D'Azur, as always.

Any recap worth sharing here?
Hope everyone is doing well.

OP1 Personally... no need to tell me I'm off base... seems kind of aggressive when IYO would have achieved your point and you could have asked f/up questions to help you in your DD but then... etiquette is not something I have seen much of on this board. What do you know about Crypto? You are quick to dismiss without any backup.

I would encourage to look into Crypto a little deeper... a massive trend in crypto is gaming and several games have already been launched on console by crypto companies and some have already crossed over to public companies... I am invested in a few and have been for a few years.

OLD Owl... I wasn't referring to you... I meant the Board as a whole -'you'. Talk soon,. Cheers

Your message just caught me by luck... I took a peek here as I was checking the news... glad to see the French Air Traffic Controllers have decided not to strike which is a big relief for me.

I won't be available for the next few weeks but I would be surprised if the big news here is that quick. I do see share price pumping but the news will make it RUN.

Look to the last 10K. It's all in there if you look close.
Speculators looking for signals just got a clear runway to .07 should be an easy accumulation with little concern for risk. Thom seems to think that (as per the 10K). .07 to .28 should still be fine... after that it would need to see firm momentum and then the bets become what multiple will Thom accept. This all falls into my thesis here for the past several years. .70 IMO is still a comfortable limit to keep adding (that's just a 10x off the 10K). Thom has been careful not to dilute more than absolutely necessary and this is his biggest chance to reward those who believed in him all these years (mainly his industry friends and their families)... but then again, I talk about what levels I feel comfortable adding at with my money... everyone should do their own DD and decide their own limits... like I have always said but others try to twist for their sleazy benefit.

Thom has been waiting for the Crypto Bull market to be confirmed before ramping here and that might have pissed off a bunch of shareholders' who don't get macro trends but then that's why he's the CEO and they are not. Small minds laughed at NFT BowieWorld as they thought that was stupid... typical for the uneducated. What Thom did was prove this Co is in the Crypto market as a core tenet which on the accounting (think tax loss) side was huge... What we are about to experience here has been in the making for many years. I personally will get a chuckle when the small fry start to sell too soon as they don't understand Crypto markets and how we are now set up to run with them AND how that is a massive game changer on what the REAL potential here is... I tried to inform and prepare y'all but then so many were sure they were smarter than me.... Go for it. I measure success in my financial wins not what random broke OTC traders think of me with their lack of Financial experience and knowledge.

But... then what do I know... I'm just 'whatever nonsense you have assigned to me lately' as you watch the share price climb and you are too afraid to add.
Here's a term I hope y'all are familiar with. I used to teach it to my wealth clients over 30 years ago so it's not new. DCA (dollar cost averaging). If you see an equity you like, assign an amount you are comfortable with and buy that dollar amount at the same frequency (every week or month) from now until a defined date in the future... as you wish. This will buy more shares sometimes and sometimes less as it's the dollars that are constant. It takes out the FOMO and emotion and as long as you are disciplined... you will have growing exposure to that equity without trying to time the market.

Have fun and try to be good to your neighbor. Lately it seems like sleaze has been praying on many of you eroding goodwill and using your frustration against y'all. I prefer to help people live better lives... that's what somebody did for me many, many years ago so I just try to pay it forward.

And... yes, I still hold millions of shares here and no, I won't be able to answer questions until I get back from F1.
Cheers.

Hope you're enjoying your Sunday.
So many posts about me... feels like many posters here are all the same guy. No point sharing what I know,.. y'all just complain and call me names without facts and the slander is off the charts. Clearly the monitors are asleep at the wheel or very biased.
I'm off shortly for a nice European vacation and F1 in a Monaco in a few weeks... not like posting here everyday is a way to live life. Cheers!

Ok... let's measure... your input vs mine. I've made ZERO off your whining... You could have made multiples off my recommendations. Exactly. Your posts are WORTHLESS while we wait on Thom. Acting like you add value is not the same as helping your friends. Real people offer solutions... Charlatans blame everything and everyone yet never take responsibility. We all know who here falls where.
Trying to 'sound smart' is something relics SHOUT... 'cause they know no one cares. Reflect. It may help you grow.

I would encourage you to research more... already your message hasn't aged well.

The point? It's Owl's money. No one else needs to agree. I think risk mitigation is job #1. Check these out. I like them but what do I know... nothing more than you. Fetch & Spark crypto. I'm in the multiples in the short term. Thank you NVDA :)

Yep... Bitty on the rise
Actually check all the crypto tickers I shared.
And the phone? Founder's window is about to close.
WDDD's tech background and push into Bowie World was a stumble but it was a test. I expect Thom has grown into this space during the last Crypto Winter.
Did you see the AVAX game being released on Console? On Xbox?
The gap is closing between industries.
Let's see what Thom has planned. Anyone heard from DataStream?

https://www.coindesk.com/business/2024/02/12/solanas-second-phone-crosses-100000-presales-securing-45m-for-development/

Nice to see WDDD starting to firm up a base.
Remember, with Thom's friends holding the majority of shares I think there is very little 'real' liquid float to trade.

Thanks for your DMs. I don't pay for that service as I am rarely on here. I really just come to check in on our Yacht Club, :)

Not everyone has the ability to understand Crypto so don't feel bad when they look at you with blank faces and then get defensive and start barking nonsense. It's actually pretty common. I was happy to hear about you buying some SOL on another friend's recommendation. Sounded like you're up nicely on that. Did you get the Chapter 2 phone? I just preordered mine. Did you hear about the 17 year old that made $1,000,000 on JUP DEX launch? Crazy.

WDDD will be moving into Crypto... I am 90% certain of it. We just need Thom to let us know how and then we can evaluate if we think we should add here. I added a little but am waiting on PR to decide if it's worth adding bigley.

Have you heard of Plan B? One of the most successful traders of Bitcoin?
As we wait on WDDD watch this:

Cheers and don't let those who live in the past impact your future!

WDDD is finding it's feet... When Thom has selected how it will 'best' move into this new generation of tech, we'll see the PRs. While we wait, take the time to see what's happening so you can evaluate what makes the most sense for your portfolio.

These guys are changing how 'so much' is being disrupted... https://solanamobile.com/news/saga-orders-now-open-to-everyone

Start your DD so you're ready to better evaluate WDDDs next steps.... I expect they will be in the Crypto Universe as it seems like the natural fit.

Great channel for learning Crypto:

Crypto has been very good to me...
Go check my posted picks, take your own path. Paper trade until you are comfortable.

WDDD = Tech Pioneer that was robbed of it's patents. FACT

Thom is in the Tech World and has friends in the Tech World. Crytpo is just the new decentralized tech world. Not all coins/tokens are created equal. FACT

If you enjoy my comments here, let me know. I have no need to check in here. I don't waste my time trying to induce anyone to do anything or play word games. I care about my bottom line and helping those I think are of like mind.

Too many times over my Financial career, I've been too early then had to wait for the masses to catch up... in Crypto I have been paid very well for my patience. Ignore if you're not interested.

WDDD was very early and then robbed. I see very good things happening in the circles it works in... It may or may not be a winner but I'm not selling and may even add. Good luck and watch this video. I think it's worth at least knowing of where money is being invested.

Cheers

Happy New Year my WDDD Crew.

Maybe we get good news this year... maybe not. Only Thom knows what's happening beneath the surface. The extreme moves last year in the financing World have calmed and Pennies should be rebounding. Risk-On is needed to keep growing our micro caps and there are a ton of companies looking to list (AKA seek equity financing). This puts Thom & WDDD in the Driver's seat. With a squeaky clean shell, accumulated losses for tax reduction, and no real dilution in years... WDDD is in a great position to set terms. With many of Thom's friends' as investors... he is expected to treat them well which means we COULD be protected on the downside as a result (Also, Thom is a major shareholder). Pennies are a gamble... that said I like the set up here. I expect I will begin adding if we start seeing meaningful, sustained accumulation. Adding on weakness doesn't mean anything here now... it's shifted to sustained accumulation. Do as you will... it's your money. The Trend is your friend.
Cheers.

PS: I will be looking for DataStream's comments he may add here as he seems to 'get' what Management is trying to do and might alert us of Public Info we may have missed...

OMG... can't stop laughing... thanks for the DM (you know who you are). I blocked that windbag a LONG time ago. The fact that he shows up daily to discourage tells all anyone needs to know. Be wary of those who 'care' how you spend your money.

There was a time the lawsuit looked very promising... then we all know what happened. There were many wins before the big loss.

If, you are interested in Crypto... we are moving ever closer to the halving of Bitcoin, several ETFs should be approved shortly.
I'm doing quite well with my portfolio and Crypto Winter is thawing. Do some DD, figure out if it's something for you. I like high Beta. I figured anyone here as an investor might be the same. Here are 5 to get you started that I like. Papertrade, just watch or ignore... 1) ETH 2) SOL 3) FET 4) AVAX 5) BTC of course. BTC is the safest... but you know that already.

Hopefully something good happens here. You are the Steward of your capital. Keep looking for great ideas. Not all will work out but as they say, as long as your Wins outpace your Losses, You're doing well.

Cheers!

This was clearly not the outcome we had hoped for and I imagine it destroyed Thom more than anyone. It was a crap move by the Courts and it smelled... BAD! When the Markets start moving back to a 'risk-on' environment, I think we will hear news about a reverse-merger here. I don't know more than you and I always believed Thom had a plan to sort out the money he owes to his friends and figured I'd tag along in the commons with them.

I don't expect to be back here until Thom starts releasing news (if that happens)... So Happy Thanksgiving in advance and I hope you are getting a chance to follow your Florida dreams.

Cheers!

So, it's over?
There are some older folks on this Board that have experienced personal loss in their lives and most likely are familiar with the generally accepted steps of grieving. I believe Thom, who has had Worlds in his life for what... 30 years now... needed some time to think about next steps. BowieWorld was a stone he had to turn over... the NFT mania of the time demanded he at least try.
I believe we are quickly approaching the next step in the grieving process for Thom... letting go. He knows he doesn't have the energy to keep on as an effective CEO and being a large shareholder in a dynamic company that can make best use of the shell, tax losses, etc... is the best plan. Anyone pretending they know the limits of the share price in such a transaction is clearly out to lunch.
There are many factors with the main being who is the MM managing the reverse merger and what is their track record then it's the quality of the company and so on.

Sell if you wish. God knows the chatter around here seems to want to convince weak hands to relent. As always, I will do what I believe and I suggest you follow your gut as well. I imagine there will be some nice tax loss sells that might tempt me to add but that all depends. I know I won't be doing any selling... not at these prices. I do want to ask... who do you think picked up all the past selling? Wasn't me... My guess is friends of Thom did which begs the question... what is the true float available to buy? Yes, that's why big Money always wins and most Retail doesn't.

Cheers!

Some volume today... looks like someone got impatient.
Oh well, it happens... no expected news for a bit and not much to discuss at present.
When facts and proper DD return to this board, I will consider spending more time here.

As always, we adults are responsible for our own choices. I trade on my criteria not the emotions of others.

Cheers

Yes, correct.
Thanks.
Fact checking is appreciated and welcomed.
Cheers

NFTS are an updated take on collectibles that allows creators to earn on every sale throughout time with each having their own signature and traceable pedigree, It's where collectibles are headed to try and remove fraud. It is still early days but this will grow to allow many to enjoy fractional ownership of Great works of Art, etc...

If you don't get NFTs.... then did you get any of these? People continue to make money on them buying and selling the right ones. Not all NFTs will be successful,

Coin collections
Baseball cards
Sports memorabilia
Movie memorabilia
Music memorabilia
Famous signatures
Art
Collectible cars

NFTs can be attached to physical collectibles as a pedigree tracker

David Bowie is highly collectible but that doesn't mean much until collectors show up and show their interest BUT having said that, this is the 1st event. It will need to be followed up with the growth of a trading/secondary market and the value of these NFTs will grow in value just as the market for Elvis, etc still continue to thrive.

If you're not a Bowie fan... well, many still are. He was an icon in Music, Film, Fashion, & Art. He touched the lives of many, was a best selling Artist and his ex-wife Iman is a Supermodel Icon.

NFTs are young and the marketplace volatile... the future needs this building block. They will become as ubiquitous and relied on as credit card numbers in our society. Still, not all will be worth anything, others worth too much, but the medium is important.

I always enjoy community input from DataStream.
Real, usable, & factual statements. Thank you.

This is a case that reminds me of the great Robert William Kearns (see bottom of page for details). He was bullied and robbed by some of the largest companies in history.

Was he a patent troll? I should say NOT! Neither is any company that creates and shares their invention that they patent. Patent Trolls are those who don't create but instead buy patents to enforce for profit. Still, why is that bad? Why can't a creator factor (in a sense) their asset? Everyone needs to stop trying to shame inventors and investors. If dying patients can sell their Life insurance (Viaticals), why can't an Inventor sell their rights to their patents or a Musician sell their rights to their Music?

We cannot forgive a Patent Office that issues a patent. takes the fees, then refuses protection for the very thing they took fees for. Victim blaming is disgusting. WDDD did everything it could to protect it's work. THE USPTO https://www.uspto.gov/ should offer support for the patents it allows much like an insurance co should pay when a claim arises. I've seen many insurance companies try to refuse legit claims but they are still forced to comply by the terms agreed.

When Lobbyists can allow Infringers to sidestep our laws, then we should all be upset. We are a Nation of Laws that the World admires... or used to.

Is a Class Action a Me Too thing? No, it is a better use of our Courts and allows Justice to move more quickly.

I was very happy to see Thom is still seeking justice here. I am also happy to see WDDD is out in the World connecting with the youth today who take great inventions that they rely on for granted.

Do you own a car? Or have you taken a ride in one?
Of course. How often have you thought about the people who made your comfort possible in one? Take a moment and check out who Robert was. His story is one of tenacity and justice. Something I believe in and fully support.

Also, this is a great movie based on his struggle:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Kearns#:~:text=Nearly%20a%20decade%20later%20in%201963%2C%20Kearns%20was,rather%20than%20continuously%2C%20presenting%20the%20idea%20to%20Ford.

Some Digital Insights from Tim Draper*

Looking forward to hearing from Thom on deployment of WDDD's Metaverse Strategy... when the tide changes, catching the wave of excitement could be epic.... but the messaging needs to get out and infrastructure solid to handle the influx of demand.

*https://www.forbes.com/profile/tim-draper/?sh=4fbb08fdaf34

While Thom builds out the WDDD Metaverse strategy...

Let's play a game to pass the time.
Step 1) What's the current Market Cap of WDDD?
Step 2) How many shares outstanding?
Step 3) Who are the largest shareholders?
Step 4) How old is Thom?
Step 5) Who would be interested in buying WDDD now that litigation is over but there is over $45 Million in tax loss and the value of a longstanding OTC listing++
Step 6) What is the price per share needed to satisfy Thom's retirement needs and to recover the investments made by his friends here over the years?
Step 7) What multiple did you come out with over current share price?

Tax loss purchases are all part of the game. With Corporate taxes looking to uptick...
Plan B might have been the tax sale all along.

I don't see Thom taking less that .50 per share. Your thoughts?

Impatience doesn't get anyone closer to the Goal

Those still here I expect are looking for reasons to stay and if you're not.... why are you still here?

I have tried to get posters on here to educate themselves on the Metaverse, Crypto, NFTs and how they dovetail with WDDD but if you're expecting me to do all the work... think again. Everyone here has Internet... Google, Bing, or DuckDuckGo these things!

I do agree that Thom needs to build more interest in WDDD by getting the message out and I do expect that as we near BowieBall next Month... the Media campaign will ramp.

We need more WDDD NEWS released and less Thom profiles... WDDD needs to show 'IT' has the future in it's sights as much as Thom does. Adding an in-house Social Media Dept would do wonders of building relationships with those interested in the Metaverse. Thom as the only employee worked while attorneys pushed the Courts but WDDD needs to build and hire people to get us firmly on our renewed path to creating.

If Data is Thom or has Thom's ear... get him to get a dialogue going with the community. In Crypto, I talk to the heads of projects and help them almost weekly. My investment grows and feedback helps them deliver. I don't get paid directly but it's in my interest to help their coins/tokens appreciate. Yes, we talk IDEAS, I see some show up... some don't but being heard by Management makes it much easier to open my wallet and invest further.

Let's see some progress!
Why doesn't WDDD have a Crypto site?
How come no Token?
Where is our Whitepaper?


The journey forward starts by getting in step with how people are raising money now and getting people excited in WDDD's future. Let's get this going!

The future is Digital. WDDD is Digital... WDDD can play it's part in a better Future!
Hold your Gold and your other forms of 'store-of value' assets BUT as most High Level Money Managers will tell you today... put at least 1% of your portfolio in Bitcoin and never sell it. Pass it down to your heirs. You will be doing yourself a great favor.

If you're in a rush... punch into 6:25 on the timeline of this link:

Helping each other is much more productive than anything else we can do in life.
Cheers

Looks like Thom is getting ready to drop a Public Release very soon... today's article was a good tease towards that.

As much as possible OUR World will be moving into the Digital environment in every business & facet possible which only gets further reinforced in a Capitalistic Country as ways to further reduce costs are continually sought, reviewed, & implemented. Innovation as a management tool for inflation has long been a key tenet in American historical success. Where we are now in time allows us to replace old analog solutions (which tend to breakdown more often) with software/digital solutions that can even be fixed remotely and in scale for much cheaper than we could do in the analog world.

Thom's statement of today mentioning a blend of chemistry into the mix is very exciting.
As a CEO of a public company, I can’t get into details until an official announcement, but I can say that we are working on the blending of chemistry and technology that I believe will have a profound effect on helping large segments of people suffering from varying degrees of mental health issues. An estimated 26% of Americans

Chemistry preforms new and better functions when using digital technology. Such is the same for Bitcoin. Security costs much less than analog stores of value like gold, can be traced and the people responsible caught (see link below). Gold can be melted down and the cost of security is much greater in the analog world on physical assets.

https://www.forbes.com/sites/jonathanponciano/2022/02/08/feds-seize-36-billion-in-stolen-bitcoin-arrest-couple-five-years-after-massive-crypto-exchange-hack/?sh=3b61b53b7c95

There are many tools in the inflation protection toolkit. Not all work as well as each other and some have lost favor as new better tools are created, implemented, and adopted en masse.

In the Financial community, Gold has proved that it has not been a good store of value and has held up poorly when measured against the velocity of M2. Gold should be much much higher than it's current price yet it struggles. Look at the trillions of dollars printed during Covid... Gold should have followed in lock step if it was a good store of value. Now, compare Bitcoin's rise vs Gold.

It's unfortunate that many still believe Gold & Diamonds are a good store of value. Gold is inflationary by the very fact that more gets mined every year and most gold mined is still in circulation. Feel free to look up the very definition of inflation should you disagree. As for Diamonds... well, they are made in labs now which are very difficult to distinguish so... massive supply that most consumers would never be able to tell the difference on. Bitcoin has a ledger which tracks it forever.

Thom is about to make NFTs (where every one is unique and has a certificate of pedigree that follows it) with WDDD.... something diamonds can't do in the analog world nor can gold or any other precious mineral or metal.

Yesteryear: https://www.history.com/topics/westward-expansion/gold-rush-of-1849

Today: https://www.cnbc.com/2022/05/04/california-governor-signs-executive-order-on-cryptocurrencies.html

Where is Crypto going and is it worth WDDD to get into it?

Why Crypto is a Smart move for WDDD

If you have something of value (assets), monetizing them is the Capitalist's dream. NFTs are just the start. WDDD has a long history in this space regardless of the contemporary name given to it and along the way it has fought to get paid properly for the work of the people who helped build it. If you have a college degree of any value, you most likely field calls for donations to your alma mater. Those developers that care about Worlds contributions will get involved BUT unlike their alma mater, they won't be just donating... they will be earning with WDDD Crypto.

Many people helped WDDD do what it did and many of them will derive value by helping WDDD succeed. Why? Because it's all about Networks. Behind every Metaverse is a Network and behind every Network is a network of developers and other teams that know many, many others in this space. It's a very effective community known to rally around passion projects. What happened to WDDD is every developers nightmare and standing up for WDDD will be seen by the community as doing the right thing for all patentholders held by tech.

Web3 is decentralized and Crypto currencies are the lifeblood of a project. When Thom brings about the vision of WDDD it will pay shareholders very well but it also pays all the people who rally behind him and invest in the tokens that will be used and everyone should do very well as well. It is exciting. Thom is no slouch. He will reward all of us here with his Metaverse expansion and show everyone our story and why WDDD matters.

Cheers

How Crypto is better than precious metals.

Gold IS inflationary. Other than it's limited uses they keep mining more and more every year with most gold EVER MINED still floating around. Without use cases like jewellery, electronics, etc.... it's actually becoming worth less over time

Bitcoin has none of the physical problems of gold like massive storage/housing, transportation, security, being melted down and becoming untraceable, mine sites in hostile countries, all the hands that take a little (stealing by workers, all the way through corrupt governments taking a taste, kickbacks, beholden to local communities who fight mine development because that gold is there.. not mobile like renewable energy farms.

Those who think Gold is better than Bitcoin.... well, good luck. Look at the performance of each over the past 10 years. Look how many Professional Money Managers are reluctantly coming to the conclusion that Bitcoin is the path forward. Change isn't easy but those that don't usually become dinasours.

Bitcoin is capped at 21 Million... forever. As demand increases (think Elliott Wave),
https://www.elliottwave.com/Free-Reports/Elliott-Wave-Video-Crash-Course?rcn=MSCrashClub&tcn=ewtheoryms1&sc_camp=C888986D47A440679E51EF9888D76F31 it will keep trending higher and higher over time.

Why WDDD's move into the Metaverse is a very Smart Move:

On CNBC PRO

Worth the investment.

One of the foremost critical thinkers of our time.

Anyone doubting why the future is digital doesn't understand current life.
Productivity has dramatically increased with Digital Assets.

Email is digital
Zoom
5G
Telegram & Discord (look 'em up if you don't know what they do)
Teledoc
Tesla

Software replacing hardware is the 1# reason Apple destroyed RIM's Blackberry device and why Tesla eats the lunch of combustion engine vehicles.

The Metaverse will automate much of what we do in an Analog World today for much less. It should contain inflation in time. Gold will go away because it harms the environment too much and don't be shocked if it becomes restricted because of that. I used to be a Major Gold Bug but look at BlackRock

Larry Fink is already making ESG a top priority.
Bitcoin is Digital Gold and will soon be 100% mined using only renewable resources which will edge out Gold. Especially in those countries still using Mercury to extract.

I hope everyone takes a moment to reflect on what they do in a day and ask themselves 'how many automated services did I use today?' Just because it feels like it did 10 years ago doesn't mean it was delivered to you the way it was 10 years ago. Productivity has already become Digital. It's only going to become more and more so.... welcome to the Metaverse

Cheers

First Wave into the WDDD Metaverse
In response to your private message, you know who you are (I still don't subscribe to that service).
I believe Crosstower is a great step in the right direction... let me expand:

If I was CEO Thom:

1) reduce exposure to MRMD and redeploy those funds buying up as much as possible all the way up to .10/share to a maximum of $500,000
WDDD is way undervalued here and as CEO, I might even file to buy a bunch myself in the open market. Thom has options tied to the performance of WDDD stock price, the smaller the float the faster the rise, the sooner he is back into the money on those options. Optics would be much better than an option reset and tax could be cleaner for him PLUS, it shows all the guys he tapped for money over the years he appreciates their continued confidence in him and that he is working to get them all paid and paid well for their wait.

2) I would start a DEFI project on Harmony.One which is quickly becoming the gamify-defi chain with cross chain bridges of the Web3 movement. It doesn't cost a lot to get started and a few viral marketing campaigns to Crypto folk showing off the assets WDDD has, would get a team building with most costs back-end loaded in tokens (locked) as is common practice.

3) Once a WDDD DEX has been established, REV would become predictable and profits would flow back into WDDD for it's investment and no tax due until WDDD exhausts it's 45 Million+ in tax loss.

Once REV is predictable, the stock would earn a multiple, most likely get promoted to a more senior exchange and we all have a chance to pull an AAPL.
Yes, Apple once was a penny stock and it struggled for quite some time then it found it's calling. With WDDD's history, it's tech, it's constant steady hand at the wheel all these years... it's WDDD's turn to shine and shine brightly in the Metaverse.

I would also add Bitcoin reserves within the Company. Inflation will show everyone the value of digital gold in the near future.

Or, you can sell.
Cheers.

A very popular trend right now and for obvious reasons....
Is for companies to buyback beaten down shares to capture future gains.

With WDDD entering the highly lucrative Web3 marketplace with NFT (non-fungible tokens... some have confused this and why fungible tokens have no unique value only stated value. Dollar bills are fungible), I imagine they are buying up the float at these fire sale prices. MRMD shares will possibly double but WDDD will most likely be measured in multiples over 10X IMO.

Metaverse? Why else would Meta (formally Facebook) be spending billions on this space? No licensing in every State required like pot. Digital advertising opportunities for WDDD? Very possible.

My guess is the company will buy back at least $500,000 in WDDD stock. It may drive the price up to .10 (no big deal) but if bought over months... the company will get dollars for what it can buy for less than .10 today.

All great CEOs know it's better to buy something you understand, can guide and control development on rather than a third party investment.

Cheers

Dear Thom Kidrin,
I know many have lost faith in you and your vision. Do not despair. You and I both know your contributions to current gaming, what is now known as the Metaverse, and several other virtual products & services. You believed in justice and the bullies showed everyone they can block justice... unfortunately.

Now is the time to show everyone the power of WDDD in innovation and technology that made WDDD able to get their patents. It's time to reclaim the throne.

Personally I am really excited to see your vision unfold and how you will deploy your tokens, your ecosystem, your NFT collection, and I expect, your Defi Game using all these great assets WDDD has in a fun and engaging way that brings excitement back to Worlds Inc like it did with the leading musicians & celebrities it did all those years ago.

I'm certain you have already come across Harmony One https://www.harmony.one/ and I would not be surprised to hear that you are launching on their super fast, low cost platform that made Defi Kingdoms https://defikingdoms.com/ one of the top Defi Games (I think #2 at last count) so successful. Not only do they provide money for projects, they help guide and promote as they present at various events like ETHDenver, ETHRio, etc...

Nothing monetizes quite like Defi. It has made many millionaires in months. I know of several (personally).

We all know Buffett says he doesn't invest in things he doesn't understand and is why he was so late to the game on Apple... which is his best performing investment, I believe ever. It's natural that a man advanced in his years like Buffett could not begin to understand Bitcoin... but if he had, he would have made multiples more on Bitcoin that he ever made investing over his whole life.

It's okay if others don't have your insight, your finger on the pulse, your need to improve the World through innovation. Some of us do and as more and more come to learn about WDDD's history of innovation, it's contribution to modern life, the Nerds (term of affection) who are rich now because of what WDDD helped build, will bring the support and dedication that will drive WDDD back into the limelight.

It is always darkest before dawn.
You are not alone.
Many of us are excited to see this new life blossom
Many of us are waiting to see how we can help.
This is where some of my friends started.

See what some Harmony.One projects are worth now

Plug in:
JEWEL

CLNY
HVILLE
there are many more.

Now Thom, I know you are plugged in better to the Virtual World than any of us here on this MB but I wanted everyone here to understand that whatever I put up here is the floor on what WDDD can do and do quickly. The War Chest, no longer needed for patents, is a HUGE bounty to start a DEX on Harmony.One and anyone can go look for themselves as to the money it makes for those who stake on any of them.

I wrote this letter to let you know that we are still firmly behind you and to let those stuck in the past on the patents to realize, selling is always an option but the future is very bright here and we all need to better understand our options to avoid making emotional choices rather than pragmatic choices.

Sincerely,
L4BC
