Dave Perley cashed out of AU*RI..and landed here. He's in disclosures as a "beneficial shareholder." So either he's royally piss'toff at Eddie or this is the plan...to wipe out old bagholders. pull a reverse merger with Perley taking over, then reverse splitting the crap out of the stock.
A few years back Perley apparently bankrolled the fees to get AU*RI current in exchange for installing his lil' boy Jason as CEO of their EVAP scam. Since it failed miserably Ed teamed up with his longtime scam lawyer/ toxic financier Leinwand to kickstart their loony "$3 billion crypto/ NFT/ art" con and authorizing 10 billon new shares.
As with Eddie's old TDEY reverse merger/ split deal-io with Leinwand's JMDP (currently SL*DX) I suspect a change of ownership to repay an old debt may be in the offing. Time will tell
