Datavault AI Inc. $DVLT
Wolfpack Research • Published October 31, 2025 • "A Joke Brought To You By An SEC-Sanctioned Promoter"
CORE INVESTMENT THESIS
Datavault AI is a stock promotion masquerading as an AI company, led by an SEC-sanctioned CEO who was fined for making false COVID-19 claims.
The company's "blockchain-powered" data platform is essentially a wasteland of meaningless NFTs with virtually no trading activity. Its "quantum computing center" is actually a 2,800 square foot office (not the claimed 22,000 sq ft), and the CEO operates from a beauty salon in New Jersey. Wolfpack Research concludes this is a complete joke and a short position.
COMPANY OVERVIEW
KEY RED FLAGS
CEO Nathaniel Bradley was fined and banned from penny stock offerings for 3 years for false COVID-19 claims at previous company
Company operates from a beauty salon in Matawan, NJ and a co-working space in NYC, not a professional office
Claimed 22,000 sq ft with "on-site data centers" - actually a small 5th floor office with 1 employee. Building staff confirmed no data centers exist
Data Vault platform contains mostly meaningless NFTs like "Bentley Pup" and "Parmesan Cheese" - only 1 transaction found in 2+ years
Stock Promotion Spending
DVLT has paid multiple firms to promote the stock, a major red flag for legitimate companies
QUESTIONABLE "PARTNERSHIPS"
Scilex Holdings - $150M Bitcoin "Investment"
The Problem: SCLX has a market cap under $150M and only $4.1M in cash
The Deal: Claims to invest via "Biconomy PTE.LTD" which doesn't appear to exist
The Dilution: Would issue 264M shares at 80% discount - nearly 50% dilution to shareholders
Burke Products - "Global Defense Contractor"
The Claim: Mission-critical defense contracts with AI integration
The Reality: Small Ohio business with $3.1M in 2025 contracts
What They Sell: Nuts, bolts, hoses, and electrical connectors - no AI anywhere
Nature's Miracle Holdings - $2M License Fee
The Announcement: $2M non-refundable fee for carbon credit system
The Problem: NMHI has only $9,511 in cash
The Pattern: Same CEO promised $100M to Faraday Future (another promotion)

"We think this is total crap and that the idea that any business revolving around it must be a joke." - Wolfpack Research
Wolfpack Research's Verdict
According to Wolfpack Research, Datavault AI ($DVLT) is a stock promotion led by an SEC-sanctioned CEO who previously exploited COVID-19 fears with false claims. The company's "blockchain-powered AI platform" is a wasteland of meaningless NFTs with virtually no trading activity. Its "quantum computing center" is actually a 2,800 square foot office (not 22,000 sq ft as claimed) where only one employee was observed working. The CEO operates from a beauty salon in New Jersey and has partnerships with questionable penny stock companies that lack the financial resources to fulfill their announced deals. Wolfpack Research concludes this is a complete joke designed to enrich insiders at retail investors' expense.
"We really only have scratched the surface on this name. We would dive in and go on and on detailing every dubious thing we could find, but why bother? If you don't get the gist of what is going on here, you never will. We think DVLT is a total joke."
