I have not always appreciated your earlier posts because they seemed like blind bashing and name calling but this seems somewhat reasonable. I don't know if I agree about BCYP taking .50 now if a Markman win in Feb. could put them considerably higher than that but you make a good point of it taking risk off the table now. Remains to be seen but if an offer like that is going to be made you would think it would need to be before February right?

How about BCYP wins but gets nearly nothing for now. Dashtagg does so so and money starts to trickle in... I really do hope they do good. But I don't like being called a Basher. I like to tell the truth, so many hate that...

I don't see a buyout on the horizon, especially at $.50. It is very rare for a BOD to authorize a purchase of a company north of 100%. Further there is little recent history of an untested single family of patents being sold for $72M (144M * .50). Investors should realize that a large settlement or buyout is a very rare occurrence. Defendants have taken a scorched earth policy in regards to patent litigation.

I expect the large defendants to play the litigation game and resort to the usual strategy of delaying every event in order to drain the plaintiff out of cash.

The space they are trying to create a business out of is extremely cut-throat with multiple large players and dozens of smaller entities, all fighting for the same advertising/marketing dollars. BCYP's sharing platform is an interesting concept, but I don't foresee large dollars thrown at the platform when there are IMO much better platforms available (Adlife).

GLTA. No position short or long. I am considering flying to Texas in order to attend the Markman hearing.
