January 2025!
The silence is deafening. Where are the grandiose predictions of Astra's meteoric rise, its three mythical divisions dominating markets, and the Holcomb's being hailed as scientific saviors? Instead, we find a trail of fraud, failure, and farce. It seems the only thing the Pumpers accurately forecasted in 2024 was their own vanishing act. What’s next—Dr. Holcomb’s masterclass in vaporware or Ellen Holcomb’s guide to creative accounting? Perhaps they'll rebrand as magicians since they’ve made investors’ money disappear with such flair. Bravo!

As the last day of 2024 draws to a close, one cannot help but marvel at the utter disaster that Astra and the Holcomb's have crafted. All three divisions of Astra are floundering in failure, their much-touted fundraising efforts devolving into a farcical scam, with CEO Ron Loudoun allegedly swindling his own board member out of millions. The outright lies fed to investors and the SEC are nothing short of unforgivable, showcasing a blatant disregard for accountability and ethical governance.
Meanwhile, the Holcomb's—Robert and Ellen—find themselves ever deeper in a quagmire of legal troubles stemming from their fraudulent escapades with HES. Their brazen manipulation of investor trust and diversion of funds for personal gain reveal a stunning level of arrogance and malfeasance.
And where are the pumpers now, especially Pioneertec? Those same individuals who heralded Astra’s so-called “bright future” at the start of the year have sunk into silence, tails firmly between their legs. Their bold claims of January 2024 have crumbled into cowardice as the weight of Astra’s failure becomes undeniable.
As we enter 2025, it is clear the final act for Astra and the Holcomb's is upon us. The reckoning will be swift and deserved, as the farce they have perpetuated collapses under the sheer weight of their lies and incompetence. Investors, beware—this is the end of the line for a company that has consistently failed at every turn.

So, Pioneertec, as the curtain falls on Astra's disastrous 2024, kindly regale us with your explanation of how this catastrophe could possibly be spun as a "good year" for the company, its duped investors, nonexistent joint ventures, and dwindling shareholders. What miraculous achievements do you claim emerged from the shambles of its three so-called divisions? And as for 2025, will you once again consult the same discredited gypsy crystal ball or tea leaves that so miserably failed to predict the ongoing implosion?

ASRE pushing the HES Free Energy has has obviously
destroyed ALL Integrity that the company may have ever had.
Personally I think all of their projects were a complete, and OBVIOUS Jokes.
And at no point ever had any possible chance at seeing the light of day.
This is the lowest of the Garbage stocks forms on the OTC, but there are ALWAYS
suckers and pumpers that will give some life to the Charade.
I have seen worse. LOL!
ASRE I am sure will continue on to loose any shareholders money, but as I have seen
many times they will likely to Pivot off of the current business model charade and onto
something else.... CRYPTO, Quantum, some form of CDB Play what ever is the current Hot Pump
of the OTC.
And with that some pump and long duration of Dilution and Reverse Split.
Seen the movie 100's of times. Trying to sell the "FREE ENERGY" insanity was cartoonist but entertaining.
Now current Shareholders can take the End of the Year Tax Write Offs and likely Dump the price along with it.
ASRE deserve to be at $0.0

This is why Benjamin Greir left Astra, in an SEC filing it is quoted:
“As of December 2, 2024, the board of directors of Astra Energy Inc., accepted the resignation of Benjamin Grier from all positions at Astra. Mr. Grier felt there was a lack of board oversight of management and there was a lack of appropriate protocols”.
It is clear that Astra CEO Ron Loudoun, Robert Holcomb and others are constantly misleading shareholders, financiers, investors, joint venture partners, and the regulators by making unsubstantiated claims, let's call them lies, for their own financial benefit and nothing more.

The Holcomb Annual 2024 Investor Update has been released—a veritable opera of deceit, adorned with the Holcomb's’ signature flair for fabrication and shamelessness. Allow me to surgically dismantle their feeble narrative:
Phantom Partnerships: Claims of joint ventures with a European fossil-fuel company and a U.S. data center are bereft of substance. Not a single trace of verifiable evidence exists that this is real or will lead to UL Certification for the ILPG. These proclamations are transparent attempts to mask their abysmal lack of deliverables. Investors must see these as the empty gestures they are—smoke and mirrors to stave off scrutiny.
The Zanzibar Farce: A so-called "showcase project" for Holcomb's ILPG reduced to ignominy. Astra’s millions funneled into a dubious African escapade have evaporated into thin air, leaving nothing but humiliation. Yet both Holcomb and Astra dare to parade this failure as a success, preying on the credulity of investors desperate for progress.
Patent Deception: Trumpeting Japanese patents superior to US is a laughable deflection. In truth, the U.S. Patent Office rejected Holcomb applications outright for a fundamental reason: the absence of a functional utility. Seeking Japanese patent approval is no vindication—merely a hollow bauble to distract from their inability to innovate.
Legal Morass: The Holcomb bankruptcy, rooted in their penchant for milking investors in prior schemes, has laid their modus operandi bare https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Ehz9K7ZN2LO6zp8Uj3aiFJpJ11f1XHLL/view. From Tennessee, where the court has rejected their summary judgment plea and confirmed a trial is necessary https://drive.google.com/file/d/1rfhRCCB9vdu3fGhFkVPw0m7lnXhkWV21/view. To allegations of outright fraud in misappropriating funds under false pretenses https://drive.google.com/file/d/15WVIIwSJCKQc8pEV8_mbHNOtv6crOsuy/view, their legal woes are mounting. Far from prevailing, they are on a downward spiral, ensnared in lawsuits that reveal their sordid dealings. Perhaps this is why they are constantly evading Process Servers by locking themselves in the building.
The Holcombs, Robert and Ellen, epitomize duplicity and greed. Their fraudulent exploitation of investor funds for lavish personal indulgences, exorbitant legal defenses, and crypto hoarding by investor funds underscores a pattern of unrepentant dishonesty. This is not failure—it is calculated criminality.
And they do not act alone. Astra, under Ron Loudoun's helm, has been complicit in sustaining this charade. Loudoun's tenure has been characterized by misleading announcements, fabricated successes, and a damning disregard for shareholder trust. Together, they have crafted a narrative of deceit that will leave investors pondering a grim 2025, not with hope, but trepidation.
This house of cards is tumbling, and for those still aboard, the future promises little beyond ruin and there are no lifeboats.

As anticipated, the Astra-Powertron deal has finally reached its unsurprising demise, confirming what was suspected all along. Ron Loudoun and Astra clearly knew the partnership was doomed but strategically strung along the market with reports of extensions to prop up their sinking stock price. Now, as the year concludes, Astra’s ledger is an unbroken string of spectacular failures: partnerships vanished, fundraising efforts collapsed, and investor confidence obliterated.
In light of their latest 8-K filing, it seems woefully misdirected for Benjamin Grier to resign. Surely, the rightful recipient of such accountability is none other than Ron Loudoun, whose tenure as CEO is deserving of the ignoble equivalent of the Razzie’s “Golden Gong.”
So, as we now dissect Astra’s catastrophic 2024, one must genuinely ask: Has it been a good year for Astra and its shareholders, with all three divisions supposedly "doing well"? Well, if we’re embracing sarcasm, then absolutely—a stellar year for implosions, unfulfilled promises, and failed ventures! But in reality? Most definitely not. Astra’s trajectory has been a cautionary tale of how not to run a company, with every milestone a new low and every venture a fresh embarrassment. A textbook case in shareholder misery.

Absolutely. These types of stocks not only linger but thrive on theatrics like false fundraising campaigns, perpetually overpromised "breakthroughs," and a rotating door of misadventures disguised as partnerships. Astra is no different, with its history of phantom projects and alliances that exist solely to inflate its perceived value.
Such charades, orchestrated by leadership like Ron Loudoun, seem purpose-built to prop up share prices temporarily while evading the glaring reality of a collapsing enterprise. It’s a well-worn playbook of manipulation dressed up as progress.
