Cal - thats the milestone dates shown in the Spacewalk repository which was updated 12 days ago. Like I said its not set in stone - its a due by date which could easily be extended depending on how development goes. There are currently numerous daily coding commits (which are all beyond my understanding) but show there is a huge amount of coding work going on at the moment.

The first rollout of Pendulum is due by Feb 24th and full rollout due by 28th April.
But bear in mind that coding/tech dev is notoriously difficult to predict accurately.

Chester - have agree to disagree there as they now have no shares in Googley esports Plc - I guess we will find out in March - hope im wrong :-)

Either way there were 129m shares issued and BLU has 15m and at the time no particular tie up with Dynasty. We now know Dynasty are hosting/running/building the platform and BLU own 13.7% of Dynasty - so its good news either way. ATB

Look at the upside - Dynasty just increased in value ;-)

It is really covered here in the portfolia statement back in September when Tony took hold again.
‘ The remaining esports investments are carried at cost and, in light of little news, for prudence, the Company will be looking into the potential write-off of most of the smaller esports investments within the next financial statements to 30 September 2022.’

Which means it will all be in the results statement due in March - My guess is total write-off of all those stupid little start-ups that Derek Lew oversaw.

Chester - its in the accounts.
On 29 October 2021 Googly Media Holdings Pte Limited, a Singaporean entity, acquired 100% of the Company from shareholders

Just a thought - I suppose it is possible that BLU hold shares in Googly Media Holdings Pte Limited in singapore. But there gas been no confirmation of that.

Gents - look at the confirmation statement - BLU hold no shares.

I agree it is out of order that there was no confirmation from BLU at the time and one of the reasons I am sure that Derek was kicked out.

BLU no longer have any holding in Googly but the fact that Dynasty are hosting the platform is obviously good news for Dynasty valuation

From the last set of accounts at companies house.
On 29 October 2021 Googly Media Holdings Pte Limited, a Singaporean entity, acquired 100% of the Company from shareholders with the intention of creating a group with sufficient funding to recommence the esports business plan originally proposed by the Company.

Pjb- thanks for your candid reply. Your scenario is certainly feasible but I think would be dependent on another black swan event. Without that it looks like bottom was hit around Nov (just under 16k) with a nice rally since hitting 23k. The question is whether it has just been a bear market rally or a true signal of the end of the bear. I tend to err on the latter as the charts show a break out from the downward trend, albeit small. I now expect a period of chuntering around the 18-23range for a while the data determines inflation/recession probabilities etc.

The FOMC rate in next few days will give some signals either way and I do have concerns about our resident Russian nutter. So wouldnt be surprised to wake up one morning with BTC at 15 or 30!
Either way I am fairly certain (as certain one can be) that within the next couple of years all my crypto assets will be many many times greater than today (and BLU of course)

Bernadotte/Dave TK - The gaming side of things here is not my strong point but it does all sound extremely encouraging :-)
