Official Statement from Michael T. Osborn
January 6, 2024
My name is Michael T. Osborn and I am a full stack developer, specializing in Web3, Web3.5 and Web4 blockchain applications.
While the path to this point in my life has been an unconventional one, I feel it's important to provide some context for those who are being bombarded on social media with inaccurate information about the projects I am involved with.
First, it goes without saying that DiVinciPay is not a scam. For those of you who have taken time to use the platform, thank you. You are loyal users and can fully attest to its robust use case. For those of you who have not taken the time to test the tech, yet want to call it a scam, your statements are without merit and you are simply spreading FUD because of my past. If you truly believe DiVinciPay is a scam, then test the product and publicly provide verifiable evidence that the code is malicious and the tech fraudulent.
With regard to my past, from 2010 to 2015, I was charged both state & federally for non-violent crimes, and completed my 13 month STATE sentence. In 2015 while on FEDERAL pre-trial, I was charged by the SEC for Securities Fraud and I accepted a permanent penny stock ban, as an officer or director. I began my FEDERAL sentence on December 1, 2016. There is no excuse for my behavior and I take full responsibility for my actions. I truly regret the pain I have caused.
While incarcerated at a federal camp, I went back to school and got certified as a full stack developer. Medically, I was diagnosed with highly functioning Asperger's and started learning how to navigate this developmental disorder. On May 11, 2021, following my release from federal prison, I took it upon myself to begin working with a therapist to ensure a successful re-entry into society as a reformed citizen. It's been over 2 1/2 years since my release and I want to say "Thank you" to the people who have believed in me and have taken the time to get to know the man I am today. You have given me a second chance to prove myself and I am forever grateful for that.
Because of the settlements I entered into with the Government, I will never be an officer or director of a micro-cap public company. I do not get paid in stock or convertible debt, nor do I buy ANY penny stock(s) for myself or anyone else. Most importantly, no third party holds stock or sells stock on my behalf.
When I was released from prison, I started Bot Logic Labs but due to the re-entry rules, it was decided with my P.O. that I would resign as CEO, until further notice, and continue simply as a developer. Further, I am required to submit a monthly report to the court, detailing all of my personal expenditures. Therefore, the false narrative that is being pedaled online, about myself & DiVinciPay proceeds, is just that.
Cyber bully's only have power when you have something to hide. I'm proud to say that the last almost decade has been incredibly transformative and I have learned immensely from my earlier missteps. The current people in my life know my story, as it's the only way to have healthy and honest relationships and truly move forward.
I will not engage in social media battles regarding my past and this will be my only statement on this matter. I will simply let the tech speak for itself and make sure our work product remains delivered as promised. Remember, the blockchain is immutable. It's the easiest way to track and catch a scammer. This is why Web3, Web3.5 and Web4, are such powerful tools for a trustless ecosystem. We will continue to bring the public the best blockchain technology, supporting IRL utility.
Thanks for your support,
Michael T. Osborn
