I'm giving this firm another 6 months. I will freely admit I was ready to bail when things went south.

Howsoever, by the end of the year, things will either be amazing, or they will be scraping the barrel. I dont think there will be any middle ground to be found here. I'm hoping for the former.

A very good RNS and a strong tie-in. Could well be a promising start.

I have but one niggle: "... QBT is a leader in developing new and disruptive approaches to blockchain technology – an important innovation with the power to change the world"

I would argue that QBT isn't a 'leader' in anything yet.

Looking forward to an interesting day on the market.

I was bullish about this a couple of months ago, now regard it as an absolute shower.

Caught on the cannabis hook for the second time which is entirely my own poor judgement.

I'm in now for the duration. The money's down until I can get out and have written it off until then. As a reformed gambling addict, it wont be the biggest loss I've ever had, but it will be the biggest kick myself for doing it again if it doesn't pan out.

I'm just frustrated at how things have been gone about and I sincerely hope this comes good for everyone.

Indeed. Thats a fact. However, Francesco said in one of the interviews 'within weeks' with regards to crypto plans.

He seems to underestimate timings quite badly.

What was it that John Story didn't like? He was obviously impressed with something in the build up to make him pump £1m into the firm in the first place, but the sudden U-turn and subsequent dump of shares should really have set alarm bells ringing for me, and everyone else. What did he not like the look of? A man like him would have obviously done his due diligence, but something must have changed, or more importantly, *not* changed in the interim period.

This was from CLP's 22nd Feb 2021 RNS:

The board of Clear Leisure (AIM: CLP) is pleased to announce that it has today raised £1,000,000 (before expenses) through the placing of 100,000,000 new ordinary shares of 0.25 pence each in the Company (“Placing Shares”) at a price of 1 pence per share (the “Placing”) to an individual investor, Mr John Story.

The net proceeds of the Placing will allow Clear Leisure to accelerate and widen the development of its crypto currency plans including: more quickly entering into cloud mining contracts with existing mining pool operators; financing the setup of a bitcoin mining operation in Italy; sourcing economic renewable wind farm and hydroelectric energy; in addition to the proposed operation in Italy, build one or more replicas of the Company’s existing bitcoin cryptocurrency infrastructure currently located in Serbia; and financing the developing of innovative hardware solutions for crypto currency mining and making a direct move in the segment of new crypto validators.

Francesco Gardin, Executive Chairman and CEO of Clear Leisure, commented:

“I am very pleased to be able to welcome John Story as a substantial shareholder in Clear Leisure and have direct access to the exciting technologies he has recently invested into, which could be extremely beneficial to our new cryptocurrencies initiatives”

I assume Francesco no longer has access to these now, and we're all clutching at straws.

First opportunity to break even and I'm out. I just hope that not too many are on the hook at 4p+

Some of these buys may be sells. The 181k at 10.47am I know for a fact was a sell yet showing as a buy.

To me, this RNS is a complete waste of time. Nothing of consequence was in it apart from 'subject to the Judge ruling that the conduct of Sipiem’s former board and internal audit committee was unlawful'

What if he doesn't? What if he decides to the contrary? Thats that up in a puff of smoke.

This was a hastily cobbled together attempt to remind us they're working hard, when I doubt anyone invested here is remotely interested in anything other than crypto/blockchain.

I very much doubt anything will be announced this week if thats what you're expecting. This is all going to take time and wouldnt expect to hear anything exciting for at least another month, so enjoy the football and relax

What?

If I get to the fortunate position of break even, I will be out of this like a shot.

I have a gut feeling and just don't trust the people making the decisions, and I don't think that them taking 14k a month each in fees is appropriate bearing in mind the limited income.

If it ten bags after I'm out, bravo to those braver than I.

Seconded.

Best get your tailpipe in gear, Francesco

My concern is that there is no plan b. Where do we go if the expert and testing isn't quite as succesful as anticipated? Is there a contingency or will we just move onto the next idea.

Money making is what the company need to get doing and rather quickly I might add, or when the next set of accounts are in, it could be poor viewing.

Eddie, I would love for this to work out for everyone on here thats put money into it. My overriding fear now is that the next RNS isn't as great as we expect, and thats whats killing it for me.

I just hope this wasnt a vanity project for FG.

JFC, where's the bottom on this thing?

I'm not one to flap, but this is very disconcerting. Sub 1p by end of the week?

Not what any of us that invested our hard earned money expected.

Cant read the article Dave as theres a paywall, but I know nowt about Zoetic. I do know that Story has his fingers in a lot of CBD companies like CBX and Zoetic, the former absolutely tanking. Perhaps he's feeling a pinch...

John Story.

Not heard the last of him or his sudden departure I think. Only those in the know will be priviledged to get that info and his reasons.

I would be interested in hearing it, Dave.

I believe the legal costs have been capped at €35k. What I have a nagging doubt about, is that this court case isn't the home run that people expect. Being confident of a positive judgement is a long way away from receiving a positive judgement.

Looking at how this has panned out thus far, there are a lot more twists and turns in this before it's eventually settled.

Park the court case for the time being, and lets concentrate on actually making money, rather than being awarded it.

"Be confident of a small return, rather than hopeful of a big one."
