Yes--evil entities trying to destroy PTOI is a story which strikes a chord with investors. It doesn't matter if the evil entities are real or not as long as they provide a great scapegoat. Per your example, the logic falls apart when one tries to figure out how evil entities supposedly stopped the processor from running at PTOI for a decade.

Likewise the story of a massive number naked short sellers who are so adept that they can avoid all detection so supposedly not even FINRA knows they exist doesn't have any basis in logic nor fact. If nobody knows these supposed short sellers exist then why do these short sellers even need to ever cover their short positions?? They should be able to get free money forever.

However we're in the minority. I see Cavaliers received nine 'thumbs up' on his post so his story obviously resonated with a number of people.

It looks like continued "wait and see" is the plan of action for the next 28 months until investors hear whether Veridisyn accepted the processors or whether they want their $1.5M back, and that's assuming the 'sale' moves forward. My guess is that it's more likely than not that the Veridisyn story will be kept alive for at least a couple of years even if the down payment hasn't been announced yet. Otherwise Mr. Heddle has to think up a new story.
