You may have a great belief of what you think might come true it doesn't mean it will come true.
I can give you hundreds of examples where smart people ho invested millions because of their "confidence" and lost it all. (Check out the history of the dot.com era, and the 3d printing era to start. If you want one similar to PKTX see history of CNAT, their miracle got as far as phase 2 in FDA trials)
BTW a $50,000 dollars gamble is not a lot of money to some people.
The other side of the coin, by your logic, if they truly have great confidence in what is to come, why aren't they scooping up shares up at current levels?
Is it because they don't believe it is worth much more than 10 cents?
Personally, I hope your right and everyone here makes a fortune.
