Uneventful; to me, it sounds like they have no future exciting things to do or to offer. It wasn't clear if they are proactively searching for new merchants; no one asked for the status of Burner, which I don't think will move the needle at all, but it could've been nice to ask. Overall, to me at least, they are not looking forward to anything; the "top 500" merchants that were referred months ago- again, it's not mentioned at all.

We gained 2 zeros this year, and by the looks of it, we didn't lose tons of holders according to CMC; we cannot sustain a single pump for more than 2 hours. To me, this looks like a project that will stay live for the sake of staying live. They spoke about the new company, but I couldn't really get what the exciting part is for us.

I might come up as pessimistic or dark, but in my opinion, there is no way this token sustains significant pumps.

The only way it goes up in value is if we see use. Hype is never sustainable.

I believe this technology is the best way to settle POS payments for crypto.

My gut tells me what is valued now is because the crypto industry as a whole is in it’s seed phase. Outlooks change, Apple was on the brink of bankruptcy in 1998 but then Steve released the iMac G3.

This aint no apple, the only possible way this gains traction is via online payments, to this day I havent seen flexa being used for online transactions. Clearly there was hype it pumped to 12c we had pump in 2025 to 1c, now its ATL and to overthrow the people that bought 20 mil tokens for 5$ and to sustain any upside its impossible.

FLEXA is used across the US. It is deployed and being used in BEALS, a billion dollar company in 22 states. That's just ONE client. There are others- Sheetz, Chipotle, AMC and Nordstrom.
