Yes they would have been but until they are sold into the open market they dont show up on the Unrestricted and get added to the free trading... So
1. AFFU gets a $500,000.00 loan from Blah Blah Capitol
2. They have to repay the loan with shares.... They dont actually give Blah Blah those shares until the note come due... anytime from 6 months to a year. But it can be as long as Blah Blah wants to wait.
3. Two years later Blah Blah says we want our shares to repay that loan. Here is the ugly part, when they borrowed the money the share price was lets say $1.00 so if they would have said give us our money then AFFU would have had to give them 500,000 shares plus the interest on the money loaned. But if the share price was down to .50 cents then it would have been one million and so on until Blah Blah could sell enough shares to pay the entire loan back. Plus interest
4. Since the loan was not aske to be paid back and the share price was so low it now took millions of shares to repay the loan and the interest. With each group of shares AFFU has to give Blah Blah thats when they show up on the increased numbers for the OS.
When a company does a loan they have to have enough shares in the authorized to make that loan... the Authorized does not change, but the shares in it does as they are put in reserve awaiting for when Blah Blah wants them. If the OS ever equals the Authorized then a company can not longer do loans uinless they increase the Authorized share numbers. Thats why you will see some company's with an Authorized share count of 6,7 or 10 billion. They have to keep adding to the Authorized so they can keep borrowing money.
So just because the loans were made three year ago the numbers in the OS do not change until Blah Blah wants to start selling shares to get their money back.

RB, I thank you for the info you donate to this board. Of course i'm just trying to make sense of things. It is just a lot of dilution since sept 30 24 until now, 1,392,605,057 shares, That is what was making me feel like most of the recent dilution from Sept 2024 till now so far, Might be to help purchase MTI. This is why I value everyone's opinion. Just a thought.?

These are the facts that way to many investors at this level do not understand... all of this dilution comes from shares the company sold one, two and three years ago... If they have bought or will be buying MTi they will be doing it with shares... Restricted and Preferred along with possibly Warrants. When the dilution from the previous years is done and this deal is done, they at some point in time, 6 months to a year after the deal is signed, sealed and delivered, the shares used to buy MTi will once again be eligible to be sold off and more dilution will come from that. What will save us from a complete collapse in the price per share will be if the company is showing substantial revenue...then the shares can be sold off as the stock and company grows. Problem we have now is that there is no growth and there is no significant revenue for the past few years to offset all of this dilution. So fuzz nuts Balkin had better have a plan to move this forward...and by forward I mean .50 cents and upwards and on a continued climb for years to come.

Yes, a publicly traded company can use diluted shares of its own stock to purchase another company.
This is where what google and AI get people confused... they say "A company can use diluted shares".... that gives many the impression what when they see million and millions of shares currently being dumped on the market, that the company uses THOSE diluted shares to purchase another company.'
But in fact what they mean and what is actually happening is Any time any company issues share to anyone, be it a officer of the company or a supply or to buy another company and those shares come from the Authorized share number, they are considered Company Diluted shares... because the company actually owns all of the shares that are in the Authorized Share count.. and by issuing the shares they actually own, they use the term Company Diluted Shares.
Googles answer is piss poor as its confusing to people just what are Company Diluted Shares.

Ok the way it's worded by Google is confusing When a company, Affluence, wants to buy another company,MTi, AFFU tells them they will give them 500 million shares for their company.
There is only one place for AFFU to get those shares and that is from the Authorized share, which for Affluence is 400 billion shares. They issue MTi the 500 million from those shares
Now here is where the issuing from their diluted shares come in. Once AFFU gives MTi those shares that 500 million number is added to the total of the Outstanding shares. So if prior to them buying MTi they had a total 1 billion shares in the Outstanding shares that number would increase to 1.5 billion. The 500 million added are now considered diluted shares Anytime a company does something and they pay for it by taking shares from their Authorized shares and those shares end up increasing the Outstanding shares number its dilution. So google is saying they are using their diluted shares because the company is in fact creating dilution from their own shares A company has all the shares that are Authorized and they give them out for what ever they are buying or paying for
When we see these millions and millions of shares being sold everyday and we all call it dilution by the company, that just means because the company at on time or another issed shares to someone to buy or pay for something and that someone is now using those shares and selling them to the public which creates dilution
Hooe that helps explain it

I copied and pasted your question verbatim. Here were the highlights for me.
Yes, a publicly traded company can use diluted shares of its own stock to purchase another company. This is commonly done in stock-for-stock mergers, where the acquiring company issues new shares to the target company's shareholders in exchange for their shares. This process increases the total number of outstanding shares, causing dilution of existing shareholders' equity, but allows the acquiring company to avoid raising additional capital or using cash reserves.
While this approach is efficient, it can temporarily lower the acquiring company's stock price due to dilution and investor concerns about overpayment or the merger's viability. However, if the acquisition creates synergies and boosts future earnings, the long-term benefits may outweigh the dilution effects.
Good sticktoitiveness! ✔️🤔👍

This is where OneMindNG comes in on that MTi post on LinkedIn Open data standards and unified
platforms
The meaning of unified platforms:
A unified platform refers to a system or framework that integrates multiple tools, applications, or technologies into a single cohesive environment. The idea is to eliminate silos, streamline processes, and ensure that everything works seamlessly together. This approach often improves efficiency, enhances user experience, and fosters better collaboration across teams or systems.
For example, in the business world, a unified platform could bring together customer relationship management (CRM), analytics, marketing tools, and project management under one roof. Similarly, in technology, it could combine various software and hardware components for centralized control and management.
