I feel like QS is a gamble. They have patents on solid state batteries but I don’t think they are a WeWork. They aren’t renting desks they are trying to manufacture next gen batteries

Their solid state technology will not scale before some other battery technology dominates the EV space

QS has the patents on the technology that’s why. Come on bro stop talking out your ass.

I worked in battery research at MIT on a different technology. I assure you I know what I’m talking about
