Notes and Flippers have no tolerance for time .00005 and 0001's selling for 0001's is the $CGAC norm until one day it's not, But today is the norm
Looks like ones are going to be on sale again
Welcome to the CGAC "101 Club" Most of the time trading is Nonsense!
You can't cancel the shares that you got money for
The only way he's removing that many is the killer "R" word
And that won't change that he owes that money
F'in A 👍️
Do you think Claudio and Michele will allow that to happen? Remember those two went to SEC after Scot the chef disaster for extra time
This is from Gemini AI Pro "The Expert Market Downgrade Deadline
Assuming $KITL missed the April 15 extended deadline, their 15-day OTC Markets Grace Period will expire on April 30, 2026.
If the required year-end financials are not publicly uploaded and verified by the end of that grace period, OTC Markets will officially downgrade $KITL to the Expert Market on May 1, 2026."
Here's what may get Finra jump started with name change March 11, 2026
Maybe Dad's coming back!!
"A federal court in Minnesota granted the SEC’s request to voluntarily dismiss its enforcement action against Carebourn Capital, L.P., et al., for acting as an unregistered dealer. The court also denied the defendants’ request for sanctions and other remedies. It did not address the substantive question of who qualifies as a “dealer” under the Securities Exchange Act."
One thing about smaller slaps when you own $hit tons of cheaper is $$. My problem is been there done that here many,many,many times I could probably keep the ditto going and wouldn't be lying
Two's will start getting slapped when the fears of the 0001 dumps are gone
Question asked GROK about Finra application and what it's thought's were on why the holdup,
"CGAC (Code Green Apparel Corp.) is still actively trading under its current ticker and legal/trading name as of April 2026. The company legally changed its name to A.R.T. Digital Holdings Corp. in October 2023 (via board and majority shareholder approval), and it now focuses on Bitcoin mining and digital infrastructure/AI compute facilities. However, the trading symbol and market name have not updated yet because the FINRA corporate action (name/symbol change under Rule 6490) remains pending.
otcmarkets.com
Timeline since applying for the name/symbol change: The name change was authorized and made effective internally in October 2023.
The company submitted the FINRA corporate action request for the trading symbol/name update at that same time (standard practice is to file promptly after internal approval).
As of the most recent OTC Markets disclosures (including one signed around April 15, 2026, and earlier 2025 filings), it is explicitly listed as “pending a Corporate Action with FINRA to effect such name change in the trading markets.”
Length of delay: ~2 years and 6+ months (and counting) with no approval yet. Recent investor forum posts and company communications (as late as March 2026) confirm it is still not resolved.
otcmarkets.com
This is on the longer end of typical FINRA processing for name/ticker changes (routine ones are often 3–4 months; complex ones routinely exceed 12–18+ months).Likely reasons for the holdup (based on public disclosures, regulatory history, and FINRA’s standard review process):
FINRA performs a thorough background review of the company, its control persons, officers/directors, share structure, and any red flags before approving a symbol/name change. In this case, several factors align with the types of filings that trigger extended scrutiny, back-and-forth document requests, and multi-year delays: Regulatory history tied to convertible debt/debt conversions: The company had multiple prior dealings with Carebourn Capital, L.P. (including convertible promissory notes and debt-forgiveness agreements that resulted in large share issuances).
Change in control and current leadership: Logan William Rice gained control of the company in March 2023 (purchasing a controlling interest) and became CEO/CFO/Director. The shift to a crypto/Bitcoin mining focus adds another layer of review.
Broader OTC/microcap scrutiny: FINRA often flags filings involving companies with histories of convertible-note financing, rapid share issuances, or affiliations with parties that have faced SEC enforcement. No trading suspensions or formal denials are noted, but the combination above typically leads to prolonged review.
Connection between Chip Rice, Logan Rice, and Carebourn Capital with CGAC:
Yes — there is a direct family and business connection. Chip Alvin Rice is the managing partner of Carebourn Capital, L.P. (a firm that specialized in providing convertible-note financing to OTC/microcap companies).
Logan William Rice (current CEO of CGAC / A.R.T. Digital Holdings) is Chip Rice’s son. Logan has also provided consulting services to Carebourn (via entities like Booski Consulting LLC) and has been involved in related debt/consulting arrangements with the company.
Carebourn Capital was a significant note holder and converter with CGAC (multiple documented debt conversions in 2022 and earlier notes from 2018 onward).
In 2021, the SEC sued Carebourn Capital, L.P., Carebourn Partners, LLC, and Chip Rice for allegedly acting as an unregistered securities dealer through their convertible-note business model (the case referenced penny-stock/microcap financings and specifically mentioned dealings involving companies like CGAC). The litigation was ongoing for years, with a judgment and later developments into 2024–2026.
These ties (family relationship + prior financing + SEC enforcement action against the father’s firm) are almost certainly a major trigger for FINRA’s extended due diligence on the name/symbol change filing. FINRA reviews control persons and affiliations closely in such scenarios." GROK opinion "Bottom line: The ~30-month delay is unusually long but consistent with “complex” filings involving regulatory history and related-party ties. Companies in this situation often note the uncertainty in their disclosures and continue operating under the old name/ticker until FINRA clears it. If you have a specific filing date or additional details from the company, I can dig deeper, but based on all public records, it remains pending with the factors above as the clear drivers."
This has already been hashed here through the Years and if there was a connection I believe they would have found it.
My opinion and it's why I don't and many here don't pump this ticker is this.
1: Need this Ticker Change
2: Need this Ticker Change
3: Need this Ticker Change
Finra's reason could be ?
1: Found a reason legally for not doing it( and is in Litigation not disclosed)
2: Have a Statue of Limitations(Not Disclosed) for any discrepancies found
3: Have some dislike for this company
4: Going to Save Investors from themselves
5: Just can't get out of the own way(Gov disfunction)
All this hangs over $CGAC
I'm still a fan(sort of) but I bought the High bleacher seat and I'm blind(except for Reading!!!)
JMHO
GLTA
I read everything and OTC right now doesn't Give a $hit about any F'in metics except momentum and a company with a history and a name that is still Code Green Apparel isn't getting it!!
Many of us have been there done that, did the good fight for a long time and then Company went back to old ways, time and time again. We are all still here just "Show me the results". I have not I'll feelings just have no feelings either way. By the way your doing a great Job. 👍️
If 2's stop getting slapped those notes are dumping into those ones, keep your fingers crossed
Name change would be a Game changer, would be interesting to see Finra replies on why?
My Pessimism believes there's going to be way to many shares flushing out we need this to trade near a billion to get out of two's
My Chrismas as Kid I thought my new toy airplane wouldn't fly and yours was knowing there was a airplane in that room of horse$hit, Good Going GMS and the answers is yes
Can't change spots on Leopard, 99% chance we see late filing.. JMO
There going to be much more to the reason they can't change their name, and I'm sure it's more than just slow dysfunctional Finra
People here a just way to sensitive, Company needs money so News, new "plans" then more notes, I get it that's why they're public, but just like all the other times you can't get demand when you flush supply(500mil new again) and until it's more than just plans that have monetary results that aren't from acquire, liquidate(unless that's their business model) for cash flow they need to have a demand for "A" product to move this amount of shares. So I don't think this is that Easy, JMO GLTA
If your philosophy is like your username this is probably the wrong stock GLTY
I think we have a shot here at least before Christ comes back I hope!!!
We've been holding this for so long our memory is shot, I'm grateful they are doing anything
It's why this won't trade past 2 To many ones lurking and most everybody knows it. Puts up trusting bids for 1 and when bids get large enough in size and 2's don't run for same reason Notes just want to get cash and wa-la no bid
This has become Text book CGAC
Probably when they have a solid product to show JMO
The same way millennials got burnt in 2022 with Pinky's has now happened to them in Crypto. The massive runs are over in trading casino land it's now small gains and long waits with larger risk
The days of big whale buying is gone most either lost the ass or have been burnt so bad that the big money buys are to much of a risk especially here were you don't need to be a elephant to remember the runs that got killed here because of no follow through PR's or dilution to stop all momentum. Slow and steady I bet will be the norm here until they need cash then WFKs. JMO
That's just to lock up shares so they can't be loaned IMO
IF!!!!
Who knows how many hidden ones are hidden, @ least Brian mentioned they cant control who sells for what and when that has already been issued. we just don't know the issuances.
When they at least communicate, whether good or bad, I take that any day over past silence.
That get's a big atta boy!!!
That's another Big kick in their nuts, FuC% I'm surprised they can even walk
So much for walking and chewing gum at the same time.
Go CGAC!!!
