Datavault AI Secures USPTO Allowance for Blockchain Patent Targeting Naked Short Selling

Datavault AI Inc. (NASDAQ: DVLT) announced that the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office has issued a Notice of Allowance for all 24 claims in its patent application covering blockchain-based methods and systems designed to detect and mitigate naked and excessive short selling through tokenized dividend distribution. The allowed claims include technologies for issuing digital dividend tokens on a distributed ledger, reconciling token issuance with reported share positions to identify settlement discrepancies, automating settlement and share recalls, supporting CUSIP reclassification, and providing real-time reporting and audit capabilities.

The company said the intellectual property expands its blockchain and tokenization portfolio while creating potential licensing opportunities for exchanges, transfer agents, broker-dealers, custodians, issuers and digital asset platforms. This development is significant for Texas and the broader financial industry as it addresses the persistent issue of naked short selling, which can undermine market confidence and harm companies. By leveraging blockchain technology, Datavault AI aims to provide a transparent and automated solution that enhances market integrity.

Datavault AI is leading the way in AI-driven data experiences, valuation and monetization of assets in the Web 3.0 environment. The Company’s cloud-based platform provides comprehensive solutions with a collaborative focus in its Acoustic Sciences and Data Sciences divisions. The Data Science division leverages the power of Web 3.0 and high-performance computing to provide solutions for experiential data perception, valuation and secure monetization. The Company’s technology suite is fully customizable and offers AI- and machine-learning-based automation, third-party integration, detailed analytics and data, marketing automation and advertising monitoring.

The patent allowance positions Datavault AI to offer licensing to key market participants, potentially generating new revenue streams and fostering innovation in financial market infrastructure. For Texas, home to a growing fintech and blockchain ecosystem, this could attract attention to the state as a hub for cutting-edge financial technologies. The impact on the reader and industry includes increased awareness of blockchain's role in regulatory compliance and market fairness. As naked short selling remains a concern for public companies, this technology may provide a much-needed tool to protect shareholder value.
