Livewire Ergogenics Inc (LVVV)

[Jason Coombs]

There is no conflict in having conversations and reducing the amount of misinformation and rumor that people are inclined to spread. Deciding whether to accept shares of stock of LiveWire as payment for something of value is a judgment call that depends on all sorts of factors, including whether there will be future conflicts between the equity holders as a result of the shares that would be issued to the seller in the proposed transaction. To be able to reduce conflicts, there must be a way to discover the existence of disagreements and potential problems in advance. In my opinion, public discussion helps reveal those risks.

The other type of conflict, the conflict of interest you reference with your question, doesn't exist in this case. Posting anonymously and leaking information or rumor that might be beneficial or detrimental to the position of either party would be a conflict of interest here, but getting to know one's prospective co-owners and hearing all of the pros and cons from each possible viewpoint is not a conflict of interest. Thanks for the good question.
