Revenue PR, SecureAuth reversal and settlement PR

Glorious times are ahead!!!
Some might be wondering why Mark said on Monday that the court victories are not guaranteed? He was simply stating the obvious. Of course there's every reason to believe that he's just as excited as we are that we are going to win all of the lawsuits which is why he stated in June that we're close to winning all of our lawsuits. Think of the tremendous reasons why we have such confidence?
1. We have utility, not process, patents with 100% claimabilty for OOBA | MFA and Keystroke Encryption. We have had them for years. The strongest United States patents available.
2. Microsoft couldn't beat our patents in 2015-16 when SFOR was on the brink of ceasing to exist. Blank Rome, one the best IP Lawfirms in the US (One of their attorney's was named this month as the 2019 best IP Attorney in the US) represented Strikeforce when their PPS was .0001 ON CONTINGENCY. That should tell us all we need to know about SFOR's patents.
3. After Blank Rome's settlement with Microsoft in January of 2016 was announced six months later in June of 2016 that they would represent SFOR against Duo, Trustwave and Centrify AT THE SAME TIME. You don't go after MULTIPLE $100-million to billion dollar companies if you're not extremely confident.
4. Then came March 2017! That glorious month brought another game-changing announcement. Ropes and Gray, arguably considered the BEST IP litigation Lawfirm in the world (They were named #1 in the US for 2018) partnered with Strikeforce to pursue another set of MULTIPLE infringing major Companies: Gemalto, Entrust, Vasco & SecureAuth at the SAME TIME (Ropes and Gray was 43-0 IP Litigations in 2016). How much would Ropes and Gray invest in the partnership? They named the involvement of eleven (11) attorneys on the SecureAuth Appeal brief in March of this year!
Ropes and Gray also offered their patent expertise to Blank Rome last year when in March of 2017 Duo, Trustwave and Centrify joined forces to try to discredit the strength of SFOR's patents by filing a challenge of over 20 patent claims with the US Patent Trial & Appeal Board.
In October of 2017 a landmark victory for Strikeforce was achieved when the PTAB re-validated the tremendous strength of SFOR's patents. Two Ropes and Gray attorney's were on the ones listed on the final decision document back then.
5. In April 2018 the Supreme Court indirectly gave another victory to Strikeforce's patents when they ruled that the PTAB has the Constitutional right to determine patent validity. It should also be noted that the Supreme Court has also ruled recently that Patent holders can even receive damages for international Revenues.
6. Since April 2018, Courts have even enlisted the input of the US Patent Office to help them decide cases. What will the Patent Office say about SFOR's patents?
As you can see we have NOTHING to worry about. If Ropes and Gray as well as Blank Rome are confident... So am I.
