We're talking Billchain! Let me pontificate for

Let me pontificate for a moment (only a moment chums!)
TPAC is the first to navigate the China waters with Navair certified bearings made in China. Bill is in the forefront. Is it taking awhile? Yes. It can take years to establish inroads into a foreign closed marketplace. How long has it taken Boeing or Airbus to get there? TPAC is making those inroads.
In the meantime, TPAC (Bill) has generated alternative sources of income that are set up to benefit from green tech and blockchain:
1.) ebikes (not an unpopular mode of transportation - especially on the college campuses.) This is a growing industry. Just look at Toronto, one of the cleanest cities on the planet. They use public bike transportation and it works. All Bill needs is a breakthrough with one of his ebikes on a major American university campus or a world reknowned clean city and the revenue contracts will begin. (Not as profitable as a huge aerospace contract but hey, it's revenue.)
2.) ICO's for the ebike rental and purchase marketplace. An innovation and slow to start concept but definitely the right direction.
3.) Blockchain for the aerospace industry in China. Let's face it. China wants capital. It wants to be a global player in the marketplace and to be respected as an industrial powerhouse. In the past, they have attempted to do this by investing in the U.S. real estate market. They got burned in most cases. They have already started and are underway with their own industrial revolution, just like the U.S. at the turn of the 20th Century. But they are also tech giants (or at least want to be.) That means blockchain.
What the information age did to the industrial revolution (replacing it as a growth industry), blockchain is to the information age. China, now that it is morphing into a semi-capitalistic society, will not tolerate missing out on this new form of data security. It needs to be able to compete in a world market and blockchain is the new wave of the future.
If Bill was sitting on his hands waiting for a contract to materialize from Comac, Boeing, or Airbus, yeah we'd all be sitting on the wrong side of the investment curve with a long wait ahead.
But he's not. He has gradually come to recognize now that the aerospace parts business is a good ol' boys club and you can't just walk up, knock on the door with a product and expect recognition. The problem with good ol' boy clubs is that they're like dinosaurs, stuck in a routine and sometimes slow to respond to change. So he is positioning TPAC to be in the right place with blockchain data security at the right time so that when they do wake up, TPAC will be there with the offering that, not that China or any other major aerospace corporation can't refuse, but one that they have to accept, especially if they want to compete in the world market.
I'm not worried, just anxious to see the positioning finally produce a result.
That's the way it is with innovators like Bill. TPAC may seem to be going in several directions and to the casual observer may seem to be in disarray, but it only seems that way.
Under the hood, as it were, it's all very focused.
