Whatver the personal relations between TW & JM, those accounts - and the blackly farcical failed attempt to reverse the DBC into LIFE's AIM cash shell, which led to LIFE being delisted in April, indicate the DBC faces a very uncertain future at best.

Thank you for that, you know more about accounts than I do. At least that's one of my concerns sorted.:-)

Db4, I am not sure about your concern regarding the final results. As far as I know the company has not given a date for their release and as the year end is only 31st March they are not late.
I know they came out in May last year but in 2015 they did not come out until mid June. Unless the figures are very straight forward and your auditor can be scheduled to come when you want then 3 months to issue the figures is still pretty quick.

Thank you for your best wishes guns. I still have a small stake in FFWD having bought in originally when the share price was 8.5p and the very last tranche I bought was around 17p.

When a share price starts sliding and continues on a downward trend, as FFWD has done, I always look again at the reasons I bought in the first place and ask if the story has changed. In my view the story has changed at FFWD and the fact that the company has still not released the Final Results which were due several weeks ago starts alarm bells going off by head. Shareholders still don't know for sure that the Leap Gaming IPO is going ahead, the Schoold/Lingo Media deal keeps being delayed, the decision to sell SatoshiPay was a big mistake in my view and added to all that the company doesn't appear to be interested in communicating with private shareholders.

At the moment I feel more at ease with cash in the bank and if the next news from the BoD re-ignites my enthusiasm for the future prospects of FFWD I'll buy back in again.

Indeed there's a lot of outstanding news due here on many fronts. This has led to frustration and folks heading for the exit in some cases. I'm still fully invested here, rightly or wrongly. Always intended to give this about 3 years minimum to grow.It's quite possible that any one peice of news could turn the tide in the near term. I'm thinking Leap Gaming, Schoold? Let's see..

Thanks bazildon for an informed well written response to my question.

I am surprised at the timing of your sells db4,after being long and strong for so long? You must have sold around 12p,why not have waited till after all the news in June? As you know I moaned alot but am still hanging in till at least July.I know at times we didn't see eye to eye but i just wanted to say thanks to you and lauders well researched posts.I wish you all the best in future,I sincerely mean that.

Just some examples here on the lack of info. We had a news release in the first week if March that FFWD had invested 3million Canadian dollars in Nuuvera and three months on we are no further forward in understanding exactly what that company is doing - a website in German, Nuuvera.de ------- what is that all about? Leap Gaming IPO was supposed to be completed by the end of this month - no news. Final Results have gone awol. Schoold/Lingo Media deal has been put on hold again. As you say bazildonbond, this isn't a game, hopefully the next official news we have from the company will ease some of our concerns.

[bazildonbond] 10/6/2017 14:50

You're correct DB, to make an informed investment decision you need to be informed. For me it's not a game, my future depends on making good decisions based on the information available, as shown on this FFWD forum many investors/board members have found more information about the investee co's than what has been (what is public information after all) announced.

[doodlebug4] 10/6/2017 12:54

I agree with all the question marks in your post bazildonbond and like you I've sold the vast majority of my shareholding here, but still hold a few. There's no doubt there has been a change of direction within the company and that, combined by the lack of information given to private investors, has forced me to sell.

Where would FFWD be right now S/P wise if they still held satoshipay, true you can't hold everything but selling BLU stock was a massive error IMO

Why can't Pulseflow (DB Company) put this sort of PR on their website or even FFWD do it for them on their website if they don't know how?

[888icb] 09/6/2017 01:05

I hold FFWD which I am confident is soon to deliver some impressive gains. When FFWD did the deal with BLU I liked the look of it and bought in. I have continued to add to both and was particularly pleased with my last BLU purchase just a day before yesterday's large rise. I am also surprised that FFWD sold its BLU shares as Satoshipay looks very promising. Jim Mellon likes Satoshipay and that's good enough for me.
I am looking forward to the next few months for both shares.

[bazildonbond] 08/6/2017 19:15

I agree DB, Satoshipay and Factom were the reasons i invested in FFWD in what seems an age ago now, i'm a great fan of IOT, other disruptive industries, blockchain and the digital currency, the 4th revolution as it's been called. I have divested a large chunk (FFWD) since the Satoshipay debacle and reinvested in another company/fund, which incidentally has/had larger stakes in both the aforementioned co's, simply because of the lack of an explanation WHY.

[doodlebug4] 08/6/2017 18:04

The quote from Jim in the last paragraph of that statement makes it even more puzzling why FFWD sold their stake in SatoshiPay.

[doodlebug4] 08/6/2017 17:44

bazildonbond, Blue Star were originally listed in 2004 at 10p and the share price went up to about 19p in 2005, so something has been going sadly wrong with the company for quite some time and obviously there have been some poor investing decisions been made over the years. I believe BLU's investment in SatoshiPay could be a game changer for the company. I also like the small stake in Sthaler, but I think from a market sentiment point of view it is the investment in SatoshiPay that will drive BLU's share price upwards. This from directorstalk.net earlier this year;

"SatoshiPay just raised €1m to bring nanopayments to the mainstream.

You may have read on Coindesk that SatoshiPay recently raised €640k from London Stock Exchange listed Blue Star Capital (LON:BLU). This was part of a €1m funding round closed earlier today. The round was lead by our early supporter Jim Mellon, with blockchain funds Huiyin Blockchain Venture and Kryptonite 1 (NEX:KR1) co-investing.

I couldn’t be happier to see “old” and “new” finance joining forces to support us at this exciting stage of our company. We are serious about this blockchain thing, and gladly receive part of the funds in bitcoin. (How does one hold so many ‘coins securely? Multi-signature wallet Copay and SatoshiLab’s hardware wallet Trezor to the rescue!)

Jim Mellon already took part in our funding round last year through the Fast Forward Innovations fund, which he co-founded. In his own words: “I am delighted to have been an early, and now follow-on investor in such an exciting company. I am fully expecting great things from Meinhard and the team!”"

[bazildonbond] 08/6/2017 17:03

There are 3 listed companies that have a stake in Satoshipay, Bluestar of course, Coinsilium and Kryptonite1 on the NEX Exchange. Bluestar has other investments too, i'm not sure the rise is solely down to Satoshipay, tho rumours were abound at the time of FFWD's divestment to BLU that BLU "could" be a vehicle to a listing for Satoshipay.
DB, Jim has a direct (10%) stake in Satoshipay.

[doodlebug4] 08/6/2017 16:48

Jim Mellon is a big fan of SatoshiPay and he has a large stake in Blue Star, so we have to assume the decision to sell FFWD's stake in SatoshiPay was taken by the Lorne Abony.
