Fuck MetaMaterials and all their shady shit! They had to cheat to get listed. That’s why they bought Torchlight. To cut corners and get on the market thru technicalities. Don’t buy this unless you intend to short sell. But then again they will cheat ya like they did with the LightBridge liquidation for the former Spinoff stock holders of torchlight. How they get away with such janky shit is beyond my understanding. In this new century we have more regulations and a more imposing government than ever in the modern world, yet their are more shysters and ripoff that act in bad faith than ever!
