I absolulely do not want to tell anyone what and how to invest their money, but we should also keep in mind the warrants were given as a bonus to get cash into the company all these years. The company would not have had the cash to get us to this point without the warrant holder stepping up, but they got a perk that the open market investor did not. It is in no way appropriate to tell a warrant holder they should exercise for the greater good and subject them to additional risk.
There is a huge difference in buying shares on the open market and excersizing warrants and/or direct placement. The money goes directly to the company in the latter. It is very clear that moving forward at this pace costs a lot and buying shares on the OTC is good, but injecting the same amount of cash into the company through warrant excersize goes directly to moving this process as fast as possible. The safest way to protect the investment is to help the investment get to every goal possible as fast as possible. Cash now is way more important than SP blips.
I have no warrants but own a large number of shares, my investment happened before the warrant offers started and have nothing left to invest. There was a time where i thought about participating in an offer, but that meant i would have to sell my position to get the cash for the offer. I would have ended up with 50% more share control but the SP at the time had much lower volume and the SP would have dumped. I don't have much sympathy for the warrant holder blues, because I held the risk of losing everything and never sold. I hope this is not taken as a "i got more street cred" comment, i just want warrant holders to understand the open market investor that has been through this process and is not in this pickle of weather or not to excersize.
I will also say, I think the perception by many non-warrant holders that warrant holders are rich and can afford to excersize is likely not true in most cases. Every warrant holder has an absolute right to make their own decisions based on their situation and they do not need to answer to other investors.
As a side note, If we do need to do some sort of capitol raise, I don't think the terms will be anything like the past. An investment group is going to be looking at what the money is being used for, and in this case it is for uplisting. That has an immediate positive potential on the value of the investment. They could by stock like the rest of us, but that does not get to uplisting, direct cash does. Past direct placements were to fund trials, which can fail, uplisting is a very easy development in a company for an investor to analyze for risk/reward.
