Tom Winnifrith Bearcast No1: Losing $100m or multipling NAV per share 19 times, a hero or a villain?

It all depends how you look at it. I am discussing my NBF Andrew Webley of the Smarter Web Company (SWC). I think he was doing his fiduciary duty and if folks are morons that is their problem not his.

The Smarter Web Company moves from the AQSE lobster pot to the Main Market: implications vicar?

This morning my NBF Andrew Webley of the Smarter Web Company (SWC)ran the opening bell for the LSE to mark Smarter’s move from AQSE to the Main Market. This sort of ceremony is, I think, an import from the USA and like Trick or Treat, Lloyd Grossman and Ellen DeGeneres I rather regret the import. But what does the move say about the shares and the wider markets?

Updated: My NBF is a Harold Wilson for the bitcoin era but what are the maths on Smarter Web Company shares now?

One of the highlights of daughter Olaf’s acting career was her playing Harold Wilson in Made in Dagenham. Wilson famously said that the pound in your pocket is worth the same today as it was yesterday after he had just devalued Sterling. Even Rachel from Customer Services might be able to understand why that was not true. I was reminded of Wilson’s comment when my New Best Friend Andrew Webley of The Smarter Web Company (SWC) took to X as bitcoin took a beating again yesterday.

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast No 1: The AI Tsunami coming your way and for the Smarter Web business model

I start with a discussion on AI prompted by a fascinating article flagged up by Matt Earl. I reckon I will, if spared, be out of a job in less than a decade and so will many others. For the web design industry I reckon it could be curtains far sooner and that brings me to the acquisition made today by the Smarter Web Company (SWC). It is structutred in a way that does my NBF Andrew Webley credit but for macro reasons it sort of adds to the bear case. I disciss. The AI article is HERE.

Who wants to buy an arm, one careful owner

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast No 1: 75 minutes with Andrew Webley, he's not a grifter, he is a nice guy but what about Smarter Web shares?

For various reasons I found myself on a video call with Andrew Webley today. We had scheduled a 30 minute chat but we talked for 75 minutes. I am a miserable man with few friends but I admit that I like Webley and would happily go for a non alcoholic drink with him. He has made errors but I can accept that they were not deliberate and he is thus definitively NOT a grifter. So does that make shares in The Smarter Web Company (SWC) a buy? No. And I explain why. But at 44.5p are they super overvalued? They might be if bitcoin crashes or if Strategy (US: MSTR) blows up and I don't think Webley would disagree. But he, like many others reckon neither will happen despite the obvious red flag of the corporate jet Strategy is buying for Michael Saylor as you can see in a regulatory disclosure below. . I discuss all of this and bring you the good news that Webley will join me on stage at Sharestock 2026 on September 5. To get your tickets at 2025 prices you must book before December 31 HERE

Andrew Webley tweets to mislead

The grifter Andrew Webley of the Smarter Web Company (SWC) has sent out his long weekly X message. You can read it below and one takeaway is that the grifter says he is going to spend less time promoting the shares ( I guess pushing shit uphill is not everyone’s cup of tea) and more time at his desk creating value. He also misleads the muppets who follow him with fake numbers.

Every Bubble has its villain: Michael Saylor and bitcoin

Bitcoin, $125,000 just a few weeks ago, is today testing $90,000 and Michael Saylor, the founder of the world’s largest bitcoin in treasury company, MicroStrategy ($MSTR) is ranting that we should all buy bitcoin.

Andrew Webley boasts of another day eroding shareholder value at The Smarter Web Company

The average price it has paid has been $108,635. The bitcoin price is now $101,750.

Oh dear, Oh dear, the ATM is running out of money for Smarter Web, now 92.4% off peak ramp

As I have noted before, ATMs, aka death spirals might work when a stock is flying. But when it is tanking they act to stop the share price gains on the few up days and cannot be used on the many down days. Thus they crush the share price and that causes volumes to dry up and thus bring in ever reduced proceeds. Today’s ATM update from the Smarter Web Company (SWC) is horrific and leaves its shares at just 50p to sell.

The (not so) Smarter Web Co - a real bear scenario, I have been too generous apparently

The Euroloon spots a flaw in The Grifter’s M&A strategy at The Smarter Web Company

The grifter Andrew Webley thinks that he might bolster the, inflated, share price of The Smarter Web Company (SWC) with a spot of M&A.

FCA Opens Retail access to crypto ETNs so what is now the point of Smarter Web and its peers?

But the FCA says that is going to change. And that surely makes Smarter Web and its peers pointless.

A long time ago I had a friend, Tony, who was a financial journalist and a Marxist. His favourite phrase was that “the only problem with revolutions is that you run out of lead.” I think of that as I look at the latest madness at The Smarter Web Company (SWC), now valued at £50 million and where mug punters are going to be trashed. Those crony capitalists responsible deserve to meet a grisly fate when the glorious revolution, led either by we true capitalist libertarians or by revolting workers, takes place.
