point me in the direction of the adult's thread?

another record on.

to buy at the moment. I'm hovering...

IG you can both buy/sell.

With a sale and an IPO it may do better than that.

That's what it says to this old Lord, Mr Nob.

"FastForward's Chief Executive Officer Lorne Abony added, "It is extremely pleasing that two of our investee companies have found synergies and we look forward to further commercial news from both companies."

The Board of AIM-traded FastForward Innovations Limited Company is pleased to announce that its investee company Yooya has announced today their adoption of the Factom® Harmony™ platform as their blockchain solution delivered through Wancloud, Factom's re-seller in China. This will deliver immutable recording and validation of the performance of online video content in China. FastForward has a current equity interest in Factom of 2.06% and an investment of US$6million under a SAFE Agreement (see terms as announced on 23 July 2018). FFWD owns 15% of Yooya.


China has the world's largest online video market, with nearly 610 million online video users on fifty competing online video platforms generating over 31.9 billion hours of video viewing per month. As such, validating actual traffic and performance data for online video is a growing problem for brands and advertisers alike.



Yooya has adopted the Factom® Harmony™ platform for its blockchain solution delivering highly transparent and data-centric solutions without the requirement for unwieldy new tokens, wild price fluctuations, specialized cryptocurrencies, proprietary wallets, or other similar overhead. Few, if any, other blockchains offer the scale required to keep up with Chinese media demand while also creating an efficient, decentralized digital media exchange. Harmony™, resold by Wancloud in China, is done with Factom in collaboration with strong economic benefits for both companies. This also allows Factom to now publish to the Factom® blockchain both inside and outside China.

Yooya will utilize the Factom® Harmony™ platform flexible enough to deliver either a public blockchain experience, a private blockchain that anchors into the public Factom® Protocol for proof of immutability, or a completely private instance of the Factom® Harmony™ platform hosted by Factom. Harmony™ pricing is SaaS based with a monthly fee for platform-level APIs, which includes an initial number of writes for publishing to the Factom® Protocol per month and purchasing optional packages for additional monthly writes to publish more proofs to the blockchain at increasing efficiencies. Yooya's long-term growth will be accommodated by utilizing Harmony™, which never requires customers to manage cryptocurrencies or wallets.



Yooya CEO Rick Myers said, "Yooya's adoption of the market-leading Factom® Protocol is a powerful addition to our roster of solutions for brands and online video advertisers in China." He further added that "Factom will be a critical part of our ongoing development of China's first blockchain-based marketplace for the buying and selling of media rights in China."



Factom's CEO Paul Snow also said, "Factom has been preparing for terrific customers such as Yooya since its first vision of the blockchain industry in 2013. We are very pleased to see another great company like Yooya take advantage of the powerful Harmony Platform™. Yooya has a robust business model that now has the advantages of a distributed ledger and the power of immutable data to create huge efficiencies in building things like a digital media exchange. Factom has begun seeing a change in the blockchain industry as we prepare for 2019. Factom's Q3 2018 revenues were up over 675% from Q3 last year as it prepares to begin 2019 busier than it has ever been."

FastForward's Chief Executive Officer Lorne Abony added, "It is extremely pleasing that two of our investee companies have found synergies and we look forward to further commercial news from both companies. Having worked closely with both companies, I am excited to report significant progress from both businesses. It is an incredibly exciting time for companies working in the Blockchain-as-a-service industry and it is still an area that my board and I believe offers the potential of exceptional returns."

Factom and Yooya!

paydirt....

don't bust a gut at the weekend.

Ah yes, those two old friends 'if' and 'when'; I hope someone has an inkling of the answer, it's been quite some time since the offer for Leap was turned down.

needed to support a sustained rise in this bear market.

Seems they can do almost anything, as long as they turn out the winners.

I disagree, we don't all have the same realtime bid/ask, or volume, so it's interesting to know others' experience.

Matador - could be a variety of things: as Rich suggested the other day, could be spreadbet holders being forced to close their positions, could be that charity gift selling their windfall shares, could also be MMs just passing the shares mostly among themselves to manipulate the share to a 'safe' level - or a combination of all of those and more. We'll never know, but as always, it's a relief of pressure to have a decent blue day for a change.

there are suddenly almost no shares available, after weeks of being driven down day after day.
