As a generalist who has no deep insight into the technology, I got totally scared by the short report and sold out. Easy for me to do, as I was sitting on a big profit. After reading some chatter on X and your report now, I may as well come back at a lower cost.
I have to say I have great respect for the depth of your top notch research!
Jacob, thanks so much for an excellent analysis of the short report everyone's been nervous about, and for the very detailed explanation of AVLIS vs. MLIS vs. ASP. Very informative and super helpful.
Very difficult to set aside the Barry Honig & John Stetson connection when Jason Assad is ASP Isotopes current IR Contact. Jason was also at Marathon Patent Group and TeraWulf. This is not an attack on Jason but about seeking full transparency. Is this all a coincidence?
Stetson, Honig, Assad connection with Marathon Patent Group
Sharesleuth had submitted questions to Marathon Patent and Global Bit Ventures prior to that announcement, seeking information about unreported relationships, undisclosed cross-ownership and the large number of shares to be issued to certain parties — at least one of whom was facing securities-related criminal charges at the time of the deal. Marathon Patent spokesman Jason Assad told us on the day the deal was terminated that the company would not be answering those questions.
I had hoped you could help address my concerns about this company, but this report feels more like an extensive stock promotion than a balanced, impartial analysis. It strongly favors ASPI, presenting a compilation of pro-ASPI arguments while downplaying or dismissing concerning facts.
For example, the $2 million agreement with an SMR company appears contingent on regulatory approval and assumes production readiness. This setup minimizes risk for the counterpart if ASPI doesn’t succeed. Additionally, you assert the SMR company is TerraPower, but as far as I’m aware, the company involved in this agreement hasn’t been disclosed. If I have missed something, please provide a link to support this.
The independence of Oceanwall’s option is also questionable, as they’ve been compensated (50% in cash and 50% in QLE convertible notes), which clearly incentivizes them to promote the stock.
The claim that Quantum Enrichment has been proven relies solely on a link to ASPI’s website referencing Ytterbium-176. However, that post lacks crucial details like output quantities or energy inputs, making it impossible to assess viability.
Finally, while you acknowledge the company’s ties to very questionable sources of pre-IPO funding, you seem to dismiss these concerns too lightly. This remains a significant red flag, as unless is can be 100% refuted, it is a flag so soaked in the blood of previous investors that, COVID or otherwise, it makes placing trust in this venture very difficult.
The notion that having patents is a waste of time is a pretty odd-ball assertion when your markets are mostly going to be western and so will be bound by the rule of law. The secrets can be leaked or discovered via state sponsored cyber security attacks so I think this is a very poor judgment at best and questionable at worst.
This investment is entirely dependent on trust, trust in the claims of the CEO and other spokes people with respect to the QE technology. However, the QE technology is secret and there has been no independent validation of the QE technology or it's viability. So without trust I cannot invest.
Have a look at the last 3-5 PRs from the company and Terrapower. Also the author is Long and presenting his point of view. Reading both, your note has less balance, which is fine, it just demonstrates your own Biases.
Do you know why are they not disclosing their customers' and partners' names? What is the rationale?
"The Company signed two contracts with U.S. based customers for the supply of highly enriched Silicon-28 to enable next generation semiconductors for quantum computing, artificial intelligence and large data centers"
"In late 2023, RC-14, which is our North American commercial partner, commenced the processing of the feedstock to produce enriched Carbon-14. "
"During 2024, the Company signed two agreements for the supply of Silicon-28. One of these agreements is with a leading semiconductor company and the other with a leading industrial gas company that has a significant presence in the supply of electronic gases and chemicals. "

The irony of having a scammer commenting on a thread about ASPI
Thank you Jacob.

Great write-up. Curious what you think about controversy/skepticism regarding Nano Nuclear legitimacy?
After reading your in-depth article, I purposely searched for you and was surprised that you were so successful within a few years of graduation
Yeah I began the fund 2 years after undergraduate! Still have a long way to go!
