@CSchlauf Great information

👇🏼 $DEFT

@ZTheTrader For the moment, it seems like we can buy weakness.

I'm expecting the Regular Trading Hours gap from Tuesday to be addressed next week. It's about 235 points down on $ES (S&P 500) and 1000 points down on $NQ (Nasdaq).

@CSchlauf @Forson Could you tell us how much stock was bought back if any?

Audit completed ✅ Earnings call on Tuesday at 11 a.m. EST. Connection details will be provided in a forthcoming release on Monday. $DEFT

🚨 One of the biggest misreads in small-cap markets right now: The “$39M loss” for @streamex $STEX narrative is completely wrong. Here’s the reality 👇 Reported loss: ~$39M But that includes: • ~$15M stock comp (non-cash) • ~$2–3M amortization (non-cash) • ~$10M accounting/derivative noise • Legacy BSGM carry-forward Strip that out: 👉 Real loss: ~$(8M) Now look at the actual situation: • Cash burn: ~$8M • Cash on hand: ~$48M USD 👉 ~6 YEARS of runway Now the part no one is modeling: If #GLDY generates ~3.5% APY… 👉 Break-even AUM = ~$230M That’s it. This isn’t a distressed company. It’s a pre-revenue platform being mispriced off accounting optics. @Streamex @EricBalchunas @JSeyff @BitwiseInvest @BlackRock @RobinhoodApp @coinbase @ARKInvest @CathieDWood @SECGov @federalreserve @henrymcphie_ @MLekstrom @Frank_Giustra #Gold #GLD #IAU #GLDY #ETF #Tokenization #Crypto #Bitcoin #DeFi #TradFi #CapitalMarkets #Macro #Investing #Finance #Yield #AUM

These numbers will appear in the audited financial statements. Record IFRS revenue and profitability for the company in 2025. EPS for FY 2025: $0.18 Consensus: $0.13 A BEAT. Balance Sheet: $178.7 million Revenue: $99.1m Net Income: $62.7m Current market cap is ~$210m. Implied enterprise value is ~$30m for a business that just did about ~$100m in revenue and over $60m in operating income with zero debt. Show me a cheaper company, public or private. $DEFT

Serious question: If gold suddenly: • traded 24/7 • paid ~3.5% • was fully backed + redeemable 👉 What SHOULD that be worth relative to traditional gold products? No narratives. Just logic.

🧠🧵 Lessons from the Front Lines: Wall/Bay Street’s Darker Side (1/2) If a predatory hedge fund is leaning on a stock hard 📉 You should always ask one question: 👉 What are they trying to stop you from noticing? Because in my experience… The most aggressive pressure shows up right before the market understands something big. 👇 I worked at the same firm as @Frank_Giustra — one of the most successful resource financiers of our generation. He helped build #WheatonRiverMinerals → #Goldcorp A deal that created billions in value. He doesn’t need to take risk. He chooses to. And today, he is: • an insider of @streamex • an advisor • and a committed believer So let’s be very clear: People like that don’t get involved unless they see something massively asymmetric. Yet… 👉 The stock is under pressure 👉 The product is misunderstood 👉 And most investors haven’t connected the dots That combination? That’s where the opportunity usually is.

Stats don’t lie.

@trader2179 I won’t take credit for the statistics, but here they are. I am with you, David buying any weakness the lower we go the better it is.

If you listened to what I have been saying for months you were out of the mkt. we said better entries were coming. Well they are here and hope we go lower to add for longer term holds. You fear Monday. I hope we open lower and continue go down for a bit

@trader2179 Me also will add all the way down… 6000? 5700…

I put money to work today in the mkt for first time in over a year. And hope we go lower to add. This too shall pass as it always does.

Buy $STEX

I love this company. And the valuation of $DEFT is ridiculous. But when you go silent for months. Have little to no investor outreach, and disallow any responses to your twitter feed and only talk about corporate conferences, people lose interest and start looking for other ideas. You become an opportunity cost. Even though $DEFT is now trading below their cash flow on an EV basis, it has become dead money. Curtis is amazing but he is one person in NA. The entire management and operations are in Europe. Add all this together and you get capitulation @jhnwtt @Forson

$DEFT End of Q3 Balance Sheet: $210m Revenue through Q3: $80m Let’s say balance sheet is $175m as of the end of 2025 since treasury coins and venture portfolio are down in correlation with the fall in crypto prices. Current market cap is ~$220m. Implied enterprise value is ~$45m for a business that is going to do about ~$100m in revenue and over $50m in operating income with zero debt…so the business is trading at a 2x 2025 revenue multiple when peer companies get a baseline of 12-15x and some over 30x.

@MrTopStep Nice day

@Hot_Pepper76 @AaronBrabham Was such a great show!!

Miami Vice did something TV rarely did then, it let a hit song carry the scene. The pilot plays like a mini movie, barely any dialogue, just mood. Do you remember it, or is this your first watch?

@MrTopStep @pitbulltraders Darn missed you again. Short trip to see Mom.

@ericjackson Do you still like $deft?

🧵 Why I’m Long $HUT — and Why It Could Be a 100× Story by 2029 I’ve taken a long position in $HUT (Hut 8) — and I think it’s one of the most misunderstood stocks in the market. Everyone still calls it a miner. I see it as the energy + AI infrastructure platform that the market hasn’t caught up to yet (unlike my other 2 favorite longs IREN and CIFR). 👇
