Presumably other manufacturers are available and you forgot to mention...

... because obviously that means DA owns both Avnet and Azure but it does not because these companies would not tie themselves into a single source solution.

This is the level of stupid you have to deal with when dealing with worms. They post unsourced suggestions in the hope that people with less intelligence than themselves will not bother looking a bit harder whilst forgetting that a worm does not have a structured brane and anything else that can type is streets ahead of them.

Nice try but I am sure Rhodi will tell you that his mate down the pub as already fitted one to his ticker, integrated it with KeyScaler and sent him a roll of tape so there really is no need for any concern about DA becoming an irrelevance.

Connectivity is intrinsic to the use case. If you wished to supply connectivity to a legacy device without that facility you would use a modern interface and therefore not be subject to the DA patent. Of course by extension rather than resorting to DA for a legacy device with connectivity you might choose to rip out that part of the interface and install a more modern one. The general problem is that the claimed stranglehold that DA supposedly has on the market as a result of its patent did not really exist in real and realistically increasing value terms in the first instance and is, by now, likely dead. The old news in this case would be Medigate. Do we know how that one is progressing?

They have a patent, valid in the US, Germany and the UK that profiles the legacy hardware in the legacy devices to provide a guess at a Unique Identifier. Of course as legacy devices get replaced the value of the patent decays. It is one of Still Waiting's repeated foils. Protection for 15 years on equipment that will be retired next year. How much is that worth?

To be fair there was or may have been news in the past that Walmart did secure or considered securing their stock of legacy POS devices with Keyscaler. If that was the case then, assuming DA could maintain their presence after Walmart upgraded their stock, it would remain good news. Has that happened or has Walmart moved onto a new solution and cut DA out of the equation because they have access to newer technology?

No doubt you will prefer to be evasive and babble on about green boxes but can you explain the logic behind your thinking beyond Tern having a low share price?

My view would be that one of Terns portfolio companies is more likely to be a direct target for someone with a specific interest. For example if you want Wyld, most likely in this scenario, why would you take on Tern and the other companies when you can build a position in the market for Wyld in preparation. The same, although more complex, would apply to the other portfolio companies. Making a play for Tern just because it is weak so you can end up with a similar compromised part share in the whole portfolio seems like a dead end. Tern of itself is not performing so why would you bother with it when as a result of that lack of performance you could selectively take one of their toys of of them?

As has been pointed out to you many times before that is meaningless desperation as demonstrated by the lack of any meaningful numbers beyond a claimed percentage of an unknown. The accounts as published by DA in the UK demonstrate a specific lack of Unicorn growth and you do not have access to the accounts as published by DA in the US. You may as well invest in the fairies at the bottom of my garden.

Sounds like someone exited with *real* cash leaving Pires investors with dross.

This does not look like a decent play.

"Good grief. You don't even know who Alsop Louie is?"

According to @kkrriiss he is linked at the hip to Gilman Louie.

Just to follow up.

Apparently Gilman Louie has been given an appointment by President
Biden.

https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases/2022/05/04/president-biden-announces-appointments-to-the-presidents-intelligence-advisory-board-and-the-national-science-board/

I am informed that Gilman Louie holds 500 shares in Device Authority.

I also understand that Gilman Louie is associated with Alsop Louie who
likely has a larger shareholding in Device Authority either directly or
indirectly via one of their Investees, Tern PLC.

I am concerned that this might represent a conflict of interests.

Sincerely

Hi @KennyJ.

You appear to be having some issues with logic hurting your head.

According to @kkrriiss DA is now in the sweet spot because Gilman Louie has 500 shares in the company and also has Joe Biden in his back pocket. Or perhaps you missed that bit because it did not appear in a public briefing.

Of course since @kkrriiss has wisely highlighted the possible conflict of interests perhaps Gilman Louie should divest himself of his shares and Alsop Louie and anyone else associated should do the same. Just a thought.

@kkrriiss

You do realise that what you are implying might be interpreted by the American Authorities, SEC, as insider dealing and cause a shed load of stress elsewhere in terms of the bidding for and awarding of contracts.

Of course I'll assume you would not be so stupid as to do so because your past record shows that you are not prone to blathering rubbish. As a result everyone should get the message that Gilman Louie is sweet with Joe Biden and Device Authority is about to tie up the whole US security market.

Do you want me to send some e-mails to get that one confirmed?

"24.06.2022 Information on entry into European phase"

The 30/31 month time limit from the original claimed priority date is almost up so Wyld have to take a decision as to whether they wish to proceed with the application in their (30 plus) contracting states and pay the money to do so.

That decision should be based on the last failed effort to gain a favourable opinion from EPO under the PCT, not as yet followed up by Wyld.

Of course they might just ignore that one and pony up, burn, the cash and carry on regardless in order to maintain the illusion that they have a cat in hells chance of achieving global market domination with the award of a patent for prospective investors.

Now I know Antelope does not consider this to be of major importance given the companies strategy of embedding themselves with partners to roll out their technology and given they know the words and, more importantly, how to implement those words to effect.

This is something I also agree with. However my beef is the use, abuse, of the prospect of obtaining patent protection to entice investment where the likelihood of achieving that goal is next to non-existent.

"IP and Patent strategy – identifying the products and technologies that are key value drivers"

The problem here in general but especially at this time is that Tern are using such an enticement to drive investment in of itself and also in their enticement to Pires and their investors.

I, we, would not know that there might be underlying issues in this case and elsewhere, in particular with the patents held by Device Authority and their limited geographical scope, if the information had not been reviewed.

Such lack of insight results in the deliberately misinformed ramping used by others in an effort to boost the apparent value of their investments that has previously been seen in respect of the suggestion that Device Authority was intrinsic to FIDO to the extent that they owned it whereas FIDO is an open source standard which excludes the inclusion of IP unless rights are waived.

Of course if you don't like facts getting in the way you can always proudly proclaim that you have plonked the messenger and accuse them of being part of a shorting cabal.

Let me guess that Mr Hardman Williamson gives zero Werthers in respect of the takeover of Pires by Tern. Let me also guess that almost none of Terns investee companies give many if any Werthers in respect of the takeover of Pires by Tern. You may assume I have substituted Werthers for a word that begins with f, ends with s and includes at least one vowel.

Apparently The Toucan is still taking over The Phoenix.

I see at most two.

The Gamers Bros and The Metaverse Bros and the only supposed synergy they might have is with FVR is in terms of graphics and/or audio processing and if you think FVR have not got that one down given the market they are involved in then you have not been paying attention.

So you get to toss the coin and FVR have got to be monster on haptics which might translate into in game experience and that, as far as I can see, is your absolute maximum. Is FVR going to give up their tech to the Monkey Island Boring Yacht Flash Game Writer Club Bros because Tern says they will sell themselves to Facebook.

Answers on a post card.

I have to say that you appear to be quite eloquent.

Let's say you have acted as an AIM listed intermediary in order to funnel investor cash into a bunch of companies that purport to deal with NFT's, Blockchain, Web3, Metaverse and in Game Something or Another on the basis that this is the next big thing but the companies you have invested in are just using buzzwords with no real clue and then their proposed markets get exposed as being Ponzi Bubbles and start crashing.

You knew this was going to happen.

Now you need an exit strategy that lets you take out or otherwise realise your cash whilst leaving your investors sitting on their losses and it does not matter if someone else takes part in those losses because that is the whole point of The Scheme. This is the Rug Pull.

Being low quality CryptoBros but having experience of AIM you sell your dross off to an Old Bloke on AIM in exchange for shares. Then you sell off your shares in the market to realise your profit whilst crashing the SP of the company you sold your dross to. And this happens because you as The Phoenix totally burned The Toucan because the Toucan did not include a one year time limit on your ability to sell your shares resulting from The Scheme.

Elsewhere I see that @lukehere has GreenBoxed me for using words. I get that. I also get Rhodi. I've put links to pictures of their profiles along with a couple of animated slug gifs of them on a BlockChain I have not as yet set up. Get in with your, minimum starting, bids of $100,000, real money, and I might do an airdrop for the losers later on.

"On the contrary, it's not a silly idea at all."

Well if you wind it back to Keyscaler being used by companies that provide post programming of product from the OEM chain then that works. Claiming that a semiconductor manufacturer such as ST are now wholly reliant on Keyscaler, whilst being par for the course, is just normal ramping.

The news for @emty is I do believe that Tern has viable businesses in their portfolio but not at the often claimed unicorn level, so you might wish to exit now. Otherwise it is my view that Pires has, by and large, a bunch of no hope dross that will crash and burn.

I guess we will have to wait for The Scheme to be published.
