It is not a scenario so much as a if you buy at .30 and it drifts down to .08 (like it has) over time (people get tired of holding the stock after the novelty wears off) while waiting for the first big deal to happen (and they sell new shares to raise cash to pay bills while waiting for the first real deal to happen), the first real deal could be a private buy out at a price near the current price, like .08 right now, which leaves you trapped with a .22/share loss. Or they could just run out of investors to fund the losses as the price drops to near zero. This one, I believe will get a real big deal this year, but there is no guarantee the stock price will get back to .30 if it does, but then again if the news is PR'd just right the stock could jump to $1 overnight on this one, due to the huge potential of their technology.
