Genius Group Announces $10 Per Share Blockchain-based Digital Discount Coupon (NFT) Per Share

https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2023/02/02/2600343/0/en/Genius-Group-Announces-10-Per-Share-Blockchain-based-Digital-Discount-Coupon-NFT-Per-Share.html


SINGAPORE, Feb. 02, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Genius Group Limited (NYSE American: GNS) (“Genius Group” or the “Company”), a leading entrepreneur edtech and education group, announces today a plan approved by the Board for a $10 Blockchain-based Digital Discount Coupon (Non Fungible Token “NFT”) per ordinary share to all shareholders as a move to reward shareholders and as part of the ongoing prevention measures being implemented by the company’s Illegal Trading Task Force.

Under the proposed plan, the company will follow a three step process to issue the $10 per share reward to shareholders:

Step One: Dual Listing of Genius Group shares on Upstream

This week Genius Group began the application process to dual list its shares on Upstream, the revolutionary trading app for digital securities and NFTs powered by Horizon Fintex (“Horizon”) and MERJ Exchange Limited (“MERJ”). The Company already has a relationship with MERJ, with group subsidiary Entrepreneur Resorts Ltd publicly listed on the MERJ main board. Approval to be listed on Upstream is subject to approval by MERJ. However as a current NYSE issuer and MERJ Issuer, Genius Group may be eligible for an expedited listing process, and anticipates approval within the month of February 2023.

The planned dual listing on Upstream is designed to provide the Company the opportunity to access a global, digital-first investor base that can trade using USDC digital currency along with credit, debit, PayPal, and USD. Through this dual listing, Genius Group can then issue NFT digital coupons to all its investors.

Step Two: Issuance of $10 NFT Coupons per share to Genius Group shareholder

Once the dual listing process is complete, Genius Group will issue $10 NFT coupons per share to shareholders on Upstream. Shareholders will receive their coupons through a simple process of downloading the Upstream app, following a short KYC process, verifying their identity and being issued their coupons.

The count date (record date) to confirm all shareholders is being set for February 28, 2023, and the coupons issued will be based on the shares each shareholders owns on that date. A full briefing of the process will be provided at Genius Group’s next Investor Meeting in February. The digital coupons are not securities and are issued as ERC721 tokens, which are a standard for representing ownership of non-fungible tokens (NFTs), that is, where each token has a unique identifier. The digital coupons may not be withdrawn or transferred from the Upstream app and are only redeemable using the Upstream app.

Step Three: Redemption of $10 NFT Coupons for course discounts

Once shareholders have received their $10 NFT Coupons, they can then redeem the tokens for GEMs (Genius Education Merits) on Genius Group’s Edtech platform, GeniusU. GEMs operate as a digital credit system similar to airmiles or Roblox’s ‘Robux’ in which students earn GEMs which can then be redeemed for discounts in further courses or products.

Shareholders will have 90 days to convert their $10 NFT Coupons into GEMs, through a simple login and credit procedure on GeniusU, and a further 90 days to redeem their GEMs. The GEMs are for the use of each named investors and neither the $10 NFT tokens or GEMs can be transferred, traded or sold.

This plan rewards the investors of Genius Group with valuable credits that can be used towards Genius Group’s range of entrepreneur education and investor education courses and products. The company’s full product range will be presented to all investors both at an upcoming Investor Meeting in February and at the time the GEMs are issued. The GEMs will have certain conditions in terms of maximum amount of credits to be used per purchase and a full prospectus of courses, products and discounts available will be provided at Genius Group’s next Investor Meeting in February, and published on its website.

Roger Hamilton, CEO of Genius Group, stated “Our investors have traditionally been retail investors who began as our students and partners, and we have had a history of providing rewards to them to acknowledge their support. With this $10 NFT Coupon per share reward, investors gain the additional benefit of participation in both Upstream’s blockchain-powered stock exchange, where shares can be individually verified. They also benefit from a free account on GeniusU, where they can join our Entrepreneur Campus or Investor Campus to connect with our 4.3 million students around the world, giving additional opportunity to learn, connect and attend Genius Group’s 2023 Impact Investor Summit and Global Entrepreneur Summit.”



Not sure that has any value to me, other than causing the share price to move


This
I’m out at 7.38
Let’s see what happens



Was able to dump my high cost shares at 7.81at least.  Man some crazy price action going on, trades in the 5's and low 6's and then next in the high 7's, huge spreads and such

Schwab won’t let me seek premarket for some reason so I guess I still have 200 shares over there lol

Well, my Cramer-esque reverse barometer is showing results. We're going to come close to hitting the daily volume in the first hour, and the NAS is up 270...both critical ingredients in buoying the share price.

Little early to be counting chickens, but encouraging.

Didn't you get some ARBKL? I might be thinking of someone else.   It just paid quarterly interest.   Can you imagine if this returns to par , or close to par, say $23 or so?   I would cash it out, that would be about a 15 bagger for me

Just to ensure I have this clear, anyone who is short GNS on Feb 28th will need to provide a $10 NFT, which is likely several times greater than the share proces shorts are in at?

Can they evade this, or will they need to cover before feb 28th?

Naked shorts will get exposed i'd think, since there is an owner record for the share that sold, even if it doesn't exist.  

It seems to good to be true.

That’s why the price is nuts, because GNS is going to give away a proprietary item.  

So everyone is driving it up because the naked shorts will have to cover.  At least that’s the thought process

Well we've been stuck on "copium" for so long, it's nice to see the hopium on the upswing!

Bought 100 of MVIS (I know, it’s not much) this morning and nice to see it’s up 15% for me already. Most stocks go down after I buy them so this is a nice change.

This is a 'uge day on the NASDAQ...up like 385 points the last time I looked.

That "rising tide raises all boats" thing is playing out pretty strongly. DOW has be lack-luster the last two days, and it sure looks like money is flowing back into tech. Hard to know whether this is a head fake, or the real thing, but it sure feels good right now.

Amazon reports after market close today. I'm kind of nervous about that one. They still haven't used that $10B stock buy back they authorized back in March of 2022. This might be a good time to deploy it if the numbers aren't good...and there's some speculation they won't be.

This, on the other hand, makes me very happy. It's from a corporate MSFT release: Committed

"On behalf of the Mixed Reality team at Microsoft, I wanted to share some important context and insights on the Mixed Reality program at Microsoft. The intent of this note is to help provide clarity to this community on our commitment to HoloLens 2 and the broader Mixed Reality program.

We continue to produce and support HoloLens 2, inclusive of monthly software updates to ensure our enterprise customers can leverage HoloLens 2 and the supporting platform to complete critical work. We also continue to update Dynamics 365 Guides and Remote Assist to address the needs of those customers. HoloLens and Dynamics 365 are key components of Industrial Metaverse deployments, connecting the benefits of digital transformation to frontline workers in field service, factory operations, and many other use cases. For more information, see our recent blog post highlighting some of the progress on the HoloLens platform and how customers are seeing real-world benefits."

- and -

Lastly, there is important and exciting work we are doing to support the Integrated Visual Augmentation System (IVAS) program. We recently contracted with the U.S. Army to revise the IVAS product design to address soldier feedback, a testament to our partnership with the government, commitment to the program, and ability to rapidly iterate on product designs to achieve results. IVAS is a great example of technology sharing between commercial products and fit-for-purpose government programs. While HoloLens and IVAS are very different devices, they both build on Microsoft’s long history of developing best-in-class Mixed Reality technologies.

Some douchebag on ST is claiming there was a recent teardown of H2/IVAS and MVIS may not be in it due to "unmarked parts", whatever that means. S2upid tuned him up. The H2 Stupid tore down was actually manufactured by MVIS, which is no longer the case. We now just license the IP to MSFT for almost exactly what we sold to them. That's why they're unmarked.

"That guy on ST is an idiot, and is wrong 24/7. God bless /u/gaporter for fighting the good fight on that idiot who should be in jail. The ASICs built into the hololens 2 and IVAS that MVIS has developed is a huge part of why MSFT has to pay royalties to MVIS. It's not just a mirror and laser driver component, but there's eyetracking and image correction in realtime which is all part of MVIS family jewels that Sumit is so proud of.

If you think MSFT can just swap out a "part" and not have to re-write the analog ASIC that took MVIS the better part of 3 years to develop (that cost the better part of $28 million dollars) with a highly specialized team (that MSFT doesn't currently have), that is insane. You think MSFT could re-do all that work with a smaller team, in less than 12 months? You're better off blocked that idiot. MSFT themselves (Zulfi Alam) mentioned they did not have the expertise to do it themselves. All of that work is seamlessly integrated into Microsoft's HPU 2.0 which was developed by Micron also.

You can't just pick these parts off the shelves and put something together. If it was that easy Apple wouldn't have indefinitely delayed their AR headset due to technical challenges.

The only thing you missed is that users constant lies, and why Stocktwits protects those agents is a reason why they'll end up becoming obsolete with no growth in users. IMO Stocktwits administrators are going to be in big trouble with the SEC one day."

S2upid is correct, MSFT gutted most of the engineering team responsible for H2 and IVAS. The revisions to product design the Army wants are mostly ergonomic (ski strap to helmet mount, and lightening) and some sensor honing unrelated to the projection system. This bodes extremely well for the contract renewal negotiations, which are probably in at least the preliminary stage now.

We continue to produce and support HoloLens 2, inclusive of monthly software updates to ensure our enterprise customers can leverage HoloLens 2 and the supporting platform to complete critical work. We also continue to update Dynamics 365 Guides and Remote Assist to address the needs of those customers. HoloLens and Dynamics 365 are key components of Industrial Metaverse deployments, connecting the benefits of digital transformation to frontline workers in field service, factory operations, and many other use cases. For more information, see our recent blog post highlighting some of the progress on the HoloLens platform and how customers are seeing real-world benefits."

Lastly, there is important and exciting work we are doing to support the Integrated Visual Augmentation System (IVAS) program. We recently contracted with the U.S. Army to revise the IVAS product design to address soldier feedback, a testament to our partnership with the government, commitment to the program, and ability to rapidly iterate on product designs to achieve results. IVAS is a great example of technology sharing between commercial products and fit-for-purpose government programs. While HoloLens and IVAS are very different devices, they both build on Microsoft’s long history of developing best-in-class Mixed Reality technologies.

Some douchebag on ST is claiming there was a recent teardown of H2/IVAS and MVIS may not be in it due to "unmarked parts", whatever that means. S2upid tuned him up. The H2 Stupid tore down was actually manufactured by MVIS, which is no longer the case. We now just license the IP to MSFT for almost exactly what we sold to them. That's why they're unmarked.

"That guy on ST is an idiot, and is wrong 24/7. God bless /u/gaporter for fighting the good fight on that idiot who should be in jail. The ASICs built into the hololens 2 and IVAS that MVIS has developed is a huge part of why MSFT has to pay royalties to MVIS. It's not just a mirror and laser driver component, but there's eyetracking and image correction in realtime which is all part of MVIS family jewels that Sumit is so proud of.

If you think MSFT can just swap out a "part" and not have to re-write the analog ASIC that took MVIS the better part of 3 years to develop (that cost the better part of $28 million dollars) with a highly specialized team (that MSFT doesn't currently have), that is insane. You think MSFT could re-do all that work with a smaller team, in less than 12 months? You're better off blocked that idiot. MSFT themselves (Zulfi Alam) mentioned they did not have the expertise to do it themselves. All of that work is seamlessly integrated into Microsoft's HPU 2.0 which was developed by Micron also.

You can't just pick these parts off the shelves and put something together. If it was that easy Apple wouldn't have indefinitely delayed their AR headset due to technical challenges.

The only thing you missed is that users constant lies, and why Stocktwits protects those agents is a reason why they'll end up becoming obsolete with no growth in users. IMO Stocktwits administrators are going to be in big trouble with the SEC one day."

S2upid is correct, MSFT gutted most of the engineering team responsible for H2 and IVAS. The revisions to product design the Army wants are mostly ergonomic (ski strap to helmet mount, and lightening) and some sensor honing unrelated to the projection system. This bodes extremely well for the contract renewal negotiations, which are probably in at least the preliminary stage now.

Forget where I read it, but it was recent. Oems basically saying a roof bump is a non starter for them. I'm not worried and eff that lesbian looking Austin Russell.
