This is indeed very very sad ...  I went all in when price was around $1 and now need +300% gain to get my money back ! 

I wonder how much is the famous "jackpot" everyone is talking about ....

What made me passionated about POET at first was the development of optical ASIC, which went down the drain, and VCSEL was claimed to be the new great thing ... which should  have be already in production by now ...if previous news were the truth...  instead, stock got diluted crazy and really I don't think that a 3x production price reduction is disruptive .. a 10x maybe but not a 3x. Competition is real , POET is not the only one working on solutions. Maybe POET is leading that particular technology, but many other solution exist to solve the same problem.  

The world is changing now, real disruptive technology such as blockchain is coming up in our everyday life.. I should have got out way earlier and bought bitcoin BTC or ethereum token (ETH) , which made +3000% last year , and still plan to run a 400% at least for 2018...  what can I expect from POET ?  so much frustration.  I don't think management is doing things right. I am in silicon technology, I know that in our field, things move fast, and momentum is important. 

I feel sorry that I lost most of my harded earn saving into this investment.. I am not mad at POET, I can only be mad at myself, as I should have left after the drop of optical ASIC process ( optical base logic cell based process ... Flip-flop, logic , adder, etc .. future is optical CPU . VCSEL is not the future.. I am sorry. just a step....  It does not make me dream at night.

Today I am going to place sell order or my 40k shares, and hope to get some ETH to invest in some ICOs, risky but 10x return is most likely. 

I apologize if I gave bad feeling to the veteran here who really are courageous  and supportive to POET !

I wish POET good life and thanks to all of you who posted in this forum, I have been reading daily for several years.

And for those who are not into crypto currencies, I will suggest that you make some research about it , it might save your future fiancial life. This POET stock has been a joke for me.
