Patent sale connections to bank(Israel)

Now! You see my reasoning behind why patent sale was likely nixed after dangling the carrot for a year? Average patent life of patent destroyed by 1 full year since Chen couldn't monetize them! That was their whole plan from start maybe. 

soon as Chen announced the patent sale in Dec 2020, the banks knew it needed to be financed. They kept purposely dragging it for a year and now have backed out. These banks all controlled by Israel and big tech in US maybe. Chen shouldn't have been so open about patents to public. Should have verified the ability of the buyer to pay cash and not finance it. 


anyways anyone please challenge my thought process. Thanks

Well - its been said - over and over.  All the ANTI of Virus/Malwares cannot seem to STOP this Trojan of Trojans...  I have asked before and many others - Can Blackberry DETECT let alone stop Pegasus? If the answer is YES.  Then your Thesus has plenty of merit - However - in the list of attendees - BB does have business relations. Example: If BB prevents or detects Pegasus - EVERY ...more

Very nice post

Conference invite snub could also speak to a gigantic fraud being perpetrated against all visiting international security companies. Is the conference a guise for the real purpose of hacking as much intel from all of them? No sense inviting BB if that's the case. If I'm one of those invitees I kindly refuse (say it's COVID)  the RSVP request because....well....we're not BB ...more

check out the security company for the twin towers. Also check out the owner.
Comment by theRussian on Nov 04, 2021 6:25pm
Can you please be specific ? Cybersecurity for twin tower ? Who is the owner ? 
Comment by konaguy on Nov 04, 2021 7:04pm
there is only one twin towers. The owner is the guy who said 'ok, then pull it' on tower 7 that you never hear about, then proceeded to collect the insurance money. He bought the buildings within a few years of their demise. His last name starts with Silver.
Comment by theRussian on Nov 04, 2021 8:46pm
Yeah I've heard stories that 7 was got weakened so best to drop it and clean up the whole thing then wait it out few more year. I think these are conspiracies because this would be too big of an event to hide especially since fbi cia nsa were involved and public attention.  I did also hear that the towers's insurance was renewed just a year before 911. But that seems coincidence.& ...more

Crowdstrike up 7.62    This down .76  Chen sell BB to Crowdstrike  They are better at running a company
Comment by Hedgetrimmer on Nov 04, 2021 12:25pm
Interesting theory Russ. To have such excellent security that it actually threatens the security of some countries. Very difficult to speak against Israel in today's political climate but perhaps Stumbling Joe has opened eyes and doors with his stance. I think what's being said about Israeli hacking and BB not invited to world security conference speaks volumes about BB product.  Can ...more

Chen told us in plain english that patents deal will conclude 3rd quarter with 80% certainty... again, he didn't say 20% chance no deal. The 20% sounded like 4th qtr., which I take as a deadline had been or was being communicated and that the 20% chance is for 4th quarter patents deal conclusion with new party/parties. My personal take from what I heard and read via Q2 call transcript is that ...more

don't believe it was a sell off. Walkdown is the word you're looking for. Only able to be performed by very deep pockets. Been watching this wash rinse repeat since 2013.

Chen needs to fken get out in public and beat some drums to tell the world blackberry has transformed into a cybersec company. I see many people still thinking we are still a phone company. Lack of marketng for 8 years has lead to this slow growth i guess. we win gov and anyone that's serious about cybersecurity but big enterprise market is still clueless about BB cybersecurity products.  ...more

So in other words hopefully they replace the ceo.. Good for you you see the light.
Comment by theRussian on Nov 06, 2021 9:34am
No! i would like Chen to stay for another 3 years as the iot strategy comes to fruition. Even if as a board member, which is obvious.  He is becoming like Elon Musk, hiring and firing guys that dont perform. Mattias is one of the best hire he has made.  He does need to be more vocal. As i've posted earlier, wallstreet and banks and analyst and instrutions have hate for Asian CEOs ...more
