I hope today's obvious price tanking on the CEO's tweets, has made even those that claim his tweets are of no consequence, open their eyes to the issue.
He tweeted a video of his fields burning today blaming delayed deadlines on it, once again tanking the price, followed by another tweet mentioning bad humans. At this rate between constant blackouts and seeming inability to keep the crops from burning, the claim that they are apparently a billion+ company that can't even push out a website, seems dubious.
Their South African company could literally have someone with no blackout issues in Manhattan, Kentucky, England, etc, work on the website, so issues in South Africa itself don't really make sense. Hell, half the people that reach out to work on my NY based website are stationed in India.
No one is concerned about the CEO tweeting too much. They are concerned with the content of the tweets with the CEO sounding like he's hopped up on feel good drugs half of the time. All of this "bad humans," "good humans," private messaging people to tell them they are bad humans and must apologize to God for insulting his servants, etc. It's super strange.
I personally am a fan of CEO's being active on Social media with updates but not if they're going to appear as though they are actively tripping on illicit substances.
The CEO legitimately tweets like he drops a tab of acid every day before work. It most definitely does not help the companies image. Imagine the way he tweets is how he speaks in business meetings. Lmao
Just click a different year up at the top. They have screenshots dating back as far as early 2020.
I feel like TXTM trading would be going more smoothly if the CEO would just stop his public posts and just let the company speak through official channels with professional speech writers at the helm. The CEO tweets like he's a kid at a music festival on party drugs. Lol
I would suggest just searching the site here: https://archive.org/
You can see screenshots of old versions of any site as they were on whichever date you choose. Just make sure to click where the blue dots are on the calendars because those signify when screenshots were taken.
You are quite correct. My first ever major runner was back in High School. Bought at .0003 and then was forced to hold it for 6 months because I sold with unsettled funds three times and was banned from selling during that period.
I probably would have sold around .001 and was forced to hold it long and saw it run to .01 lol. It's always just a waiting game. BLLB has now merged with a $2 million revenue company with the first version of the learn to earn STEM teaching game planned for release in a bit over a month. It will get far more interesting from here, imo.
At current price even if she owned 1,000% more shares than she currently does, what you just said would not be true. There is literally no share holder in existence that holds $500,000 worth of BLLB right now as per filings and recent volume.
I'm not really sure how you pulled the math on selling 35 million shares over time for $500,000 per year for 10 years straight, unless you expect a massive price surge. The total market cap value isn't even $2 million.
You actually could argue however that she has options to convert those preferred shares though but as of present time there's is not a single soul on the planet with actively trading shares of BLLB that could be sold for $500k even once at present time, let alone steadily at an annual rate for a decade. Lol
This is such a nonsensical declaration that I actually just have to respect it. Lol
Ooooh, in that case, agreed! Haha
Oh, I'm not the CEO if that's what you're talking about. The CEO Robert Clegg posts under his own name on here. Otherwise, I'm not really sure what you mean about a speech.
Tbh, he's posted here more in the past week than the majority of the people that follow the board. I've honestly never even seen a CEO do that before other than the old, old, ceo of BLLB years ago.
I wasn't involved back then. I just caught that looking at some old posts a good while back.
Why is your concern specific to June? I believe the minimum wait time to be able to file to unrestrict restricted shares is at least 6 months after issuance. Unless these are free trading shares you're speaking of.
Nice catch! Finally a real news event to look forward to Monday.
I think it's more so that this has been a long process that we all recognize as being a continued long term wait situation and most of use are likely well diversified, since waiting on one thing like this, without even having the full plan released, would be difficult.
People here didn't really complain much when the price hit $.0001 a few months ago, so I don't really see there being any point of massive pessimism to look out for below the current price of .0036. We're well aware that this is a bear market and your same statement could be applied to almost everything in the market.
BLLB is otherwise clearly being accumulated quite a bit down here.
It does feel kind of odd that she was awarded 70 times more restricted shares than the CEO. 35 million to her and 500,000 to the current CEO kind of makes me feel like she's still calling the shots.
Great catch! Thanks for making us aware.
It's nice to see that BLLB is keeping up with filings. A bunch of tickers were bagged for non compliance and hit with full on caveat emptors in the past week, so it's nice to see BLLB holding it down.
You'll be happy to know that the Avenue SLS Holdings, LLC, CEO Paul Colangelo, is still shown as a 6.7% owner, with 48,705,000 common shares. At least for the period ended 3/31/22, which is what the report covers.
That was pretty surprising. I can't believe they literally just listed it last month! A good half a year after the hype. Lol
I was recently reading about that. That is very bullish news. The new SEC rules that kicked in for OTC stocks in Q1 of last year completely killed OTC Market volume, so the OTC started a bear market a good year before the wiser market did. It will be nice to have easier access to a wider audience. So many people are too lazy to set up online accounts and solely trade on apps that are Nasdaq and up only.
This will eventually bring more eyes to BLLB and other stocks, even if they aren't necessarily available on WeBull and could lead to a trickle down effect of more big platforms allowing OTC trading.
This has become your bi-weekly announcement, so you were clearly well aware, lol. But you are correct, BLLB as with almost all stocks, is down from its high.
If you haven't already read through the new CEO's "about me" section on his LinkedIn profile, you should check it out. Seems like he really knows what he is doing and has a lengthy background in educational technology and videogames:

Exactly, as I mentioned that move was due to illiquidity off of a $916 order. Similar to when bllb slipped to .0001 and saw a huge run up when it was able to trade again. No one really banked off of that pop yesterday. I think an eventual upcoming BLLB run will be more fruitful.
BLLB is actually in better position than that one, since that one is on the expert market and bllb has already gotten past its prior trading restrictions. That other one just seems like it moved up a lot yesterday because someone bought $916 worth at the ask. It's like when bllb slid to .0001 because almost no one could buy it and then showed an immediate run up percentage when it returned to regular trading.
What I've found over time is the the biggest gains tend to come from just dollar cost average buying assets low when few are interested and just waiting until they finally have some big move, even if it takes years. Buying up bear markets over time is where the big money is generally made, after things go bullish again.
Due to the overall market, it will take quite a while but I expect BLLB to have its day. Share structure is solid and the company has completely cleaned up any concerns prior to this new ownership. Better for them not to rush it while almost every stock is going down, since this allows us to scoop lows, and then they can build out the full narrative after this money sucking bear market due to steady FED rate hikes, is over with.
No major reason to release a steady flow of big news now, while most traders are terrified of investing in this market anyway.
I too suspected that this might be a down day, since all of the stocks and cryptos have been falling for a year.
Keep in mind the entire year is likely to be downward across the board for all, due to plummeting after each FED rate hike and there are still more expected through the year. This has been anticipated since the 3rd or 4th quarter of last year.
Yes, as per this company tweet. It says she's with them for the long haul:
1/2 As shown on OTC Markets, Bell Buckle issued 35M restricted shares to former CEO Kim Halvorson & 500K each to Directors as comp for the awesome accomplishment in getting Caveat removed and positioning the Company for success! Happy to have Kim in with $BLLB for the long haul!

Literally verbatim what you wished for yesterday. The .004's are here. Feel free to buy it all up XD
No feels in this game. Just stay wildly diversified. If something doesn't work out, write it off. This is why the mood of my posts don't really change with price.
Regardless, BLLB has numerous people holding solid percentages of the shares, that could have sold this or much more. Today's activity isn't particularly concerning.
Literally everyone that publicly claims they will buy some wild amount of BLLB shares but only if the price drops, suddenly becomes terrified if the price actually does drop and then changes their tune. I believe this is now in your buy zone. Lmao
Of course not. This is just another roundabout way of saying that there is no list of real failures of BLLB's new CEO that can support such assertions.
I find that the general popular trend in investing today, is to just blanket claim "scam" or "ponzi scheme" with nothing further to add to the discussion, whenever someone wishes to attack a company or investment project, when their basis for doing so is unfounded.
Interesting take. With such a declarative statement, can you list out the points of failure of the New CEO that you have uncovered beyond simply wanting to see more news and being unhappy with the price/volume?
I have an odd feeling there is no list of failures to speak of. Lol
A post about BLLB RICO charges that do not exist and were purely imagined, as a made up something that one person imagined could possibly happen in the future has no business being stickied in two places on this board.
This is purely imaginary.
The new CEO merged in his Artificial intelligence, learn to earn, crypto gaming metaverse platform that will make use of NFT's and cryptocurrency. Pretty much all the necessary buzzwords to kick off an eventual run, imo, lol.
ACQUISITION NEWS
BELL BUCKLE HOLDINGS INC. (Company)
PRESS RELEASE
April 6, 2022
Bell Buckle Holdings Inc. (OTC PINK: BLLB) has reached an agreement in principle to acquire Virtual
Robotics League (www.virtualroboticsleague.com) from CEO Robert Clegg. The original assets and IP
will be the basis for launching a new category of crypto gaming in the metaverse known as “Learn 2
Earn” games. Following the worldwide emergence of “play to earn” crypto gaming, now is the time to
lead the innovation in educational gaming. The Virtual Robotics League (VRL) is poised to be a leading
esport for robotics and STEM education in the metaverse.
Robotics and AI will play a huge role in the future of work. It is projected that as much as 30% of the
workforce will be displaced in the next 10 years by robotics and AI, one of the greatest workforce shifts
since the farming or industrial revolutions. Virtual Robotics League esports tournaments in the metaverse
will give access to millions more students and schools that can’t afford to participate in traditional
robotics leagues that are dependent on expensive hardware and team travel.
The esports industry is forecasted to generate close to $2 Billion in revenue in 2022, while the educational
games market is projected to reach $88 Billion by 2027. Mr. Clegg ignited the game-based learning
movement with a previous venture as Co-Founder and Chief Product Officer for Tabula Digita, creating
the first action adventure video game to teach algebra, played by over 7M players in 40 school districts.
This seminal educational title had multiplayer functionality right out of the box creating fanatical interest
in classrooms and winning the top awards in the edtech industry. Today, esports is becoming part of the
fabric of after-school programs.
The Company will be releasing a white paper for “Learn 2 Earn” gaming in the metaverse, along with a
roadmap of development milestones, to update our shareholders and the public regularly. VRL will be
integrating the use of NFTs and crypto currencies to add value to both learning and playing in the league.
“The existing capital structure of Bell Buckle Holdings will allow us to take an asset already on the
books, turn it into cash and invest that into a high growth industry – esports and educational gaming. We
will sell off in bulk the delinquent debt assets previously contracted for and reinvest the cash into VRL
and the other educational gaming IP,” said Mr. Clegg.
Mr. Clegg has been a leader in this industry for over 25 years. His work has led to original education
research and development on work funded by the Gates Foundation (www.gatesfoundation.org). He has a
history of innovation in multiple verticals in gaming, including sports, children’s media, and education.
He’s created original IP and managed production from conception through development.
Ooooh, haha. I thought you were pinpointing the change in pricing expectations from those posts to now. I gotcha XD
Lol, those posts are from 15 years ago. It was a different company and different owners back then.
What an incredible write-up. Shows that BLLB's new CEO has serious experience and partnerships and connections as high as the Gates Foundation.
People really sold because it was announced that BLLB has a new CEO and he is partnered with the Gates foundation! Can't make this stuff up. Lol
BLLB appears to be in very capable hands, plus Kim Halvorson is still helping with operations, likely most notably merger completion. This is going to be exciting.
Tbh, the eventual CEO change was always expected. Kim's profession is to act as interim CEO for various shells and former shell companies, get them cleaned up with respect to filing and ideally to get them ready to complete a reverse merger and then hand over the keys.
There was never any expectation that she would stay on as CEO. The entire plan was that she wouldn't because this is how she works her various plays. For this reason during much of the process she was listed as interim CEO. The oddity of this one was that she was just listed as CEO for a much longer time than the norm due to the extended length of the process to have the caveat emptor designation removed.
I admittedly snicker each time you say this is getting dumped hard when the entire day's trading volume as a single sell order, would not signify heavy sell pressure. Making this claim on less then $30k total day volume so far, is straight up jokes. Lol
I have been active on this board for around 2 years and can confirm that in that time, no one was saying that. Lol
