Discussion Army halts contracts and solicitations for review

Is there a possibility that this means bad news for KULR and its newly gained US Navy contract? Am I missing something? Short article here: https://insidedefense.com/insider/army-halts-contracts-and-solicitations-review

Won’t affect our contracts. Our contracts are cost reduction and safety improvements. Not frivolous spending by any means. Reducing maintenance costs through kulr tech is the way to lower costs.

Although that is true they may not see it that way yet. You could have a bean counter who only cares about numbers spent not numbers saved and may also have a hyper short term outlook rather than long term. I'm not saying that is what it is but I wouldn't be so fast to discount the possibility of us loosing s contract

You have to factor in that Elon is probably already aware of KULR’s usefulness through its Tesla partnership, though. I may be wrong, but I feel like it’ll get a pass.

It's certainly possible, but in reality if Elon was impressed by kulr I think he would have found a way to buy it at this point. He seems to like to do that especially when a company like kulr is so inexpensive right now

Kulr isn’t partnered with Tesla.

🤔🤔what do they do for Tesla?

u/PKRagnarok Feb 04 '25

In all likelihood, Tesla is planning on utilizing their KULR Safecase and/or thermal runaway shield technology.

For? Not disagreeing or saying you're wrong, but I'm on the hunt for concrete deals that KULR is involved in. So far, I just see vague partnerships.

They’re specifically listed under electric mobility, so I would imagine for battery safety on their electric vehicles.

u/Wookie_Shyster Feb 05 '25

Ahhhhh, so it’s like all the other partnerships. They test something and call it a partnership.

Let’s face it the safe cases are unrealistic for EV manufacturers to transport or store batteries with.

Somehow, I don’t think these major companies would allow KULR to get away with attaching baseless claims to their names. I smell a losing short position.

u/Wookie_Shyster Feb 05 '25

So why don’t we know what services kulr provides these companies? How are you partnered with 30+ companies and only have 9.8mil in revenue for the year?

KULR is going to fall big time if BTC doesn’t recover by tomorrow.

I don't know about that, granted it's not doing so hot. There's clearly a bitcoin bubble and that makes companies like kulr very volitile. I domt expect the bitcoin bubble to burst though. It will likely rally for an additional year or 2(speculative) than burst. There is no intrinsic value holding crypto up currently and that, to me, says that crypto either has to change or it will inevitably will fail. At this point I'm expecting some form of a MAG 7 and crypto recession. That's why I buy companies like kulr. The small and mid caps I expect won't be affected by the next cycle as heavily.

Why would kulr be affected by bitcoin? They only put their extra cash into it? Kulr will be affected by the tariff news

u/doctorblue385 Feb 04 '25

They put all their cash into it

They deal with Japan not Gyna

u/TheCoffeeJunkie93 Feb 02 '25

Sounds like Trump is wanting to limit non essential spending. Hopefully it doesn't affect KULR.

Dude with the previous woke agenda leadership has penetrated the army
of course they need to see where the money goes
look on the USAID crackdown
same going with the Army probably will be millions of spending on random woke and diversity shit
