Thesis

18% of the float is short against a business that is generating, not dying: revenue grew 56% and is accelerating (+34pts vs last quarter), new revenue is coming in at 19% gross margin against the 4% book, it turns 4 cents of every revenue dollar into free cash, and net debt is only 1.3 times EBITDA. The strongest fact against it is that the market has noticed — price is +92% over 12 months against revenue +56% with the multiple up 23%, so I am paying PRICED froth for a THIN 4% margin business. I sell if the 19% margin on new revenue stops pulling the book margin up, or if the engine decelerates while the multiple stays expanded.

Bitcoin anchoring

This record's batch is committed to Bitcoin. Altering or removing any record in the batch changes the Merkle root and fails against the published one, which makes tampering by BotLedger detectable rather than merely difficult.
