It certainly does feel like Draper only cares about himself, everyone else has been rinsed for investment money for his own benefit. Why did he set up VST rather than try to make things work within Bidstack itself? Did he want the share price suppressed so he could take it private on the cheap, whilst having secretive discussions to entice private investors with the promise of the undervalued assets actually being worth a lot more in their hands? He is such a shady con man it's unreal.
Thank you for the heads up, now it makes sense about the recent upward share price movements. It's true what they say about ignoring the noise and to focus on the signals instead!
Let's face it, AIM is a complete gamble. You will either win big or lose big in this game. If you want less risk, then invest in stocks on one of the main stock exchanges! Or better still, let someone else manage your investment, e.g., though a managed fund.
You may have a portfolio of say, 10 stocks in AIM, 6 of them could lose, but you may do ok with two of them, but win big with the remaining two. That's how it is!
As for Bidstack, you either believe in the story or you don't.
The game advertising market isn't even mature yet so we surely cannot be expecting massive fireworks right now! Everyone, all those involved, are trying to get it all kickstarted. Until this market matures, these stocks are nothing more than speculative! If you are invested, you are hoping things are going to take off and make big profits for you. No one knows when it will all kick off. JD's predictions were way too premature but he wasn't the only one who was wrong.
Hi everyone.
What a time to be alive. The well researched amongst us know what BIDS have achieved so far and what's coming next. There is a pipeline of significant news to come.
All I can say is, ignore the noise!
Certain people have been talking down this share regularly for years. Whilst they have been doing that, some of us have been quietly researching, buying more shares and watching developments closely. BIDS have been achieving growth in revenue, we can see the adverts out there, deals are being struck all the time. Sounds positive to me!
Good luck all genuine long term holders! Keep the faith ;-)

Goliath Scale-up Update
Grant funding secured for the commencement of manufacturing equipment trials
Ilika (AIM: IKA), a pioneer in solid-state battery (SSB) technology, announces it has started a nine-month series of manufacturing equipment trials to further de-risk its industrialisation plan for its Goliath large format cells for electric vehicles. The Automotive Transformation Fund, the Advanced Propulsion Centre (APC)'s funding programme dedicated to supporting the large-scale industrialisation of an electrified automotive supply chain in the UK, is supporting the trials with UK-based equipment vendors using representative volume manufacturing equipment, designed to validate Ilika's scale up plan.
Ilika will receive a £175,000 grant towards its related costs over the nine-month Project (codenamed STEP), which started on 1 August 2022.
The project follows two recent successful APC-funded industrialisation projects, SOLSTICE and BUS100. The SOLSTICE project between Ilika and Comau, part of Stellantis and a world leader in the industrial automation field, concluded that there were no cost or technical barriers to scaling-up Ilika's Goliath solid-state battery technology for electric vehicles and delivered a plant design for a mega-scale manufacturing facility. The ongoing BUS100 project is a collaboration between Ilika and the UK Battery Industrialisation Centre (UKBIC) to determine the economic feasibility of placing a 100MWh SSB line at UKBIC to enable Ilika's Goliath electric vehicle batteries to be manufactured at scale. Building on the experience obtained at mega-scale, Ilika plans to continue to scale up production to Giga-scale in collaboration with cell manufacturing partners through joint ventures or licensing.
Ian Constance, Advanced Propulsion Centre CEO said: "I am pleased that this project has been successfully funded, sharing part of £15 million from our Scale-Up Readiness Validation competition. With this support, the APC aims to increase confidence in large-scale manufacturing investments to build electrified supply chains in the UK. It is vital, in the transition to net zero, that the automotive sector seizes the opportunity to grow the industry, create or safeguard jobs and build on the expertise anchored here in the UK."
Graeme Purdy, Ilika CEO, stated: "STEP is a crucial part of Ilika's industrialisation journey and provides a great opportunity for Ilika to work with UK-based equipment vendors in these trials - to both further Ilika's ambitions to scale its technology and to develop the all-important SSB supply chain."
