Blue Star Capital Share Discussion Threads

I have not commented on the other thread but I think it is of interest if our largest shareholder is still selling because as we know it impacts the share price

[doodlebug4] 15/1/2021 11:28

I don't know why anyone bothers to respond to the constant baiting from posters on the other thread.

Stellar may continue funding share price but when are they going to start standing on their own two feet? The company was formed in 2014, its nearly 7 years old lol. All I want to see is major contract wins (none of these silly, fruitless partnerships... aergo, aeternity spring to mind) or announcement of some meaningful revenue with whatever they are doing now. None of this micropayments nonsense generating a few cents per transaction.

My patience started to wear thin however news in the last 3-4 months has given me some renewed confidence
-Dynasty (no explanation necessary)
-Potential movement on other esports investments (I like that guild are listed, hopefully some others may follow through acquisition/buyout)
-Derek lews appointment (Tony was ready to step down IMO)
-fingopay (on verge of making it big ,IMO)
-chart looking good
-Satoshipay might actually finally deliver something (pigs might fly)


Good luck to you too

Stella will keep funding SPThat I have no doubt BLU much more derisked now imoHappy holding and accumulating

[kernel_pult1] 15/1/2021 10:56

I’ve been banging this drum for a while now, meinhard appears to do things at a snails pace.

I remember getting shot down for previously saying that over on the uneducated thread but it appears as though up to now, I’ve called it correctly.

Satoshipay need to start scaling the business pretty damn quick, how will they secure series A funding if they can’t prove revenue streams (not necessarily profits at this stage)

The Stellar empire might be worth a fortune but surely they want to back stuff which is actually going to give them a return on investment.

Meinhard has said in interviews that the tech for B2B money transfers is largely the same as micropayments, so if that is true, what is the hold up on them winning new business?

looks like the small fry are selling out again at resistance

were we expecting news in January? we are halfway through already !!!

[888icb] 15/1/2021 09:34

There was a spat on the other BLU thread between a poster and our largest shareholder nico. The poster accused nico of continuing to sell. Nico responded with comments about trading and why would he trash a share where he was a large holder. He did not confirm or deny that he was still selling. In the absence of a further RNS it would appear he has stopped.

Above is another indication where esports is heading. Major advertising from big players heading into this sector...

cannot tell you whether we are more like a football team or more like a media company”, says Carlos “ocelote”; Rodríguez. “Whether we are more like a Disney or a Real Madrid, I think we are a perfect combination of both. We look up to these teams, we look up to Real Madrid. But I’m sure, maybe not publicly, that they look up to us too.”

Speaking down the Zoom line from his home studio, with a fridge full of Red Bull in the background, Rodríguez describes himself as “ambitious, maybe blindly ambitious”. But as the CEO of one of Europe’s biggest esports teams, and certainly the only one to have his face on a range of Adidas apparel, he has reason to be confident.



The German sportswear giant announced on Thursday that it would become the “proud” partner of G2 Esports in a multi-year arrangement. The first step will see Adidas design the kits G2 players wear when in competition, with an emphasis on fabric that is light and absorbent enough to stop the athletes getting sticky during lengthy sessions. Each shirt will also include a “subtle” hologram of Rodríguez.


Ocelote is the handle the Spaniard used when he was himself a successful – if controversial – player of one of the biggest esports, League of Legends. After his retirement he founded G2 (then Gamers2) in 2014 and has since made them a force in LoL, with a podium finish in the last two world championships. Estimates put the total amount of prize money G2 has earned in six years at just under $8m. Based in Berlin, their copious list of sponsors includes BMW and Mastercard.

As for Adidas, this is not their first foray into the billion-dollar esports industry. They made their first kit for the gaming spinoff of FC Copenhagen three years ago and designed some trainers for G2’s French rivals Vitality in 2019. The relationship with G2 is broader, however, with official kits to be followed by a range of clothing and other merchandise that would be more comparable to Adidas’s “originalsR21; collaborations with Pharrell Williams or Beyoncé’s Ivy Park range. It’s a shift that acknowledges esports is more than just competitive gaming, even if the question of what that more amounts to remains a little vague.

“At the end of the day we are a media company, a digital media company focused on video games”, says Rodríguez. “Many of those video games we are focused on happen to have a lot of competition involved with it. But some of the games we play we play for fun and for entertainment purposes only. So there is a portion of our business that is purely focused on media properties and content formats, reality TV shows and things of that nature.

“More and more as we keep growing you see that it becomes an overall entertainment prospect. More and more professional players take part in podcasts and other forms of content that are just beyond what they do in competition. Our job in all of this is ultimately to get the eyeballs and the support from the new generations.”



G2 estimates they have a fanbase of 25 million people around the world and 80% of those are under 35. While the connection between competitive success and online popularity is not direct, an ability to attract the next generation of consumers is clear. More importantly, perhaps, esports entrepreneurs like Rodríguez are not reluctant to talk in terms of marketing and of “eyeballs̶1; in a way more long-established sports might quail at.

What esports is remains malleable, and maybe it’s the case that a team like G2 are more like a pop band, that goes in and out of fashion, than a gold standard organisation like Real Madrid. But the willingness of esports teams to go where the viewers are, and the willingness of sponsors to follow, should make traditional sports organisation pay close attention.

Steady as she goes, like I have stated before I traded these around the .06-.08 range 3 years ago so still lagging. Price target 3p.

[blueblood] 15/1/2021 09:13

Maybe good results news is now being acknowledged as underpinning share price at these levels. Massive growth potential in 2021 and expect esports sector to be smokin hot. If our new advisors can bring us some niche Pharma opportunities I'd be happy gaining some exposure to this in demand sector too.

[888icb] 15/1/2021 09:10

Now Up 14.3% on volume of 26 million

[imjustdandy] 15/1/2021 09:05

Fair value 0.6 for starters

[888icb] 15/1/2021 08:58

Good start up 11.9% on volume of 17 million. Let’s hope the seller has finished so we can keep moving north.

[aimbagger] 15/1/2021 08:48

Seller looks to be clear, strong move so far today

[kernel_pult1] 15/1/2021 08:33

I’ll do the same, I’d be surprised if the numpty even holds any here.

Hopefully he will go away to the uneducated thread where they suffer badly from confirmation bias, proven by the fact that they block anyone who has an objective opinion, so all that’s left is an echo chamber of rampers. Idiots.

Anyway moving on, I think we are all just waiting for news to drop with dtransfer now, we surely can’t go another quarter without them adding some meat to the bone i.e. contract wins. Come March I’ll have been holding here for 3.5 years. I thought more banks would want to get involved after the german bank tie up a few weeks ago

[nico115] 15/1/2021 07:54

I will do the same Sorry spook but you are now filtered You are too negative and bitter for me Ciao

[stoxx67] 15/1/2021 06:34

guys we dont want this to turn into a shadow of the idiots on the "rose tinted" thread.

lets keep up with company debate and just ignore the mugs like okspookie, i've had him on filter for many months along with the rest of the inerudite.

[investorgeek1] 15/1/2021 06:06

Did he ever have any ??

[imjustdandy] 15/1/2021 05:21

We are about to see a massive re rate in our fortunes. Final share price consolidation at 0.22 before moving to fair value which is closer to 0.6. Final results were the best I have seen and the portfolio is projected to increase further this year. 0.22 is the wrong price.

[oakville] 15/1/2021 01:52

I hold 12 million shares at an average of .25 and have held for 4 years. Am comfortable where I am and listen to nobody apart from my mum.

[nico115] 14/1/2021 22:46

Why are you so bitter ?Not pleasant are you Chill out Spookela xxx

[doodlebug4] 14/1/2021 21:23

I don't post on twitter, but any BLU investors who do, it might be timely to advise markdukeyboy that it"s not a good idea to tweet about shares when he's clearly had too much to drink. It's a fast track way to lose any credibility.
