One of our top ideas in the IoT space appears to be trading at a tremendous discount at the moment.
GTCH seems to have found support at this level, and it appears that the upside potential far outweighs any downside risk right here.
IoT is here to stay, and the smart money is flocking to undervalued gems in this sector.
Latest Gartner Report Paints Bright Future For IoT:
Gartner forecasts that the enterprise and automotive Internet of Things ( IoT ) market will grow to 5.8 billion endpoints in 2020, a 21% increase from 2019.
By the end of 2019, 4.8 billion endpoints are expected to be in use, up 21.5% from 2018.
Utilities will be the highest user of IoT endpoints, totalling 1.17 billion endpoints in 2019, and increasing 17% in 2020 to reach 1.37 billion endpoints.
“Electricity smart metering, both residential and commercial will boost the adoption of IoT among utilities,” says Gartner senior research director Peter Middleton.
“Physical security, where building intruder detection and indoor surveillance use cases will drive volume , will be the second-largest user of IoT endpoints in 2020.”
Building automation, driven by connected lighting devices, will be the segment with the largest growth rate in 2020 (42%), followed by automotive and healthcare, which are forecast to grow 31% and 29% in 2020, respectively (see Table 1).
In healthcare, chronic condition monitoring will drive the most IoT endpoints, while in automotive, cars with embedded IoT connectivity will be supplemented by a range of add-on devices to accomplish specific tasks, such as fleet management.
CTO Interview Could Spark GTCH Rally
Last week, Dr . Danny Rittman, CTO of GBT Technologies Inc. was a special guest on special edition of The AI Eye- watching stock news, deal tracker and advancements in artificial intelligence. The show is brought to you by Investorideas.com (investorideas.com), a global investor news source covering Artificial Intelligence (AI).
Dr . Rittman discussed how the company leverages AI in the IoT space and recent develops with analog computing.
GBT Technologies' employment of internet-of-things ( IoT ) technology predates the development of the company's AI core, according to CTO Danny Rittman. In fact, it was the company's development of IoT technologies that led to a growing need to create an artificial intelligence core.
"We went further into the data science … figured out that we needed to be more on the secure side, we need to handle vast amounts of data, especially as we went into autonomous machines domain etc…" he said. "So, we realized we would need a mechanism that involved AI. For the past year and-a-half, GBT developed a core AI that is based on machine learning."
"IoT will become more and more permanent in our daily domain, and of course GBT is progressing forward with this trend because our technology is natively IoT ," he said. "It started as a radio technology, and since IoT is basically radio-activated … we were naturally embedded in this domain a few years ago."
A report from Zion Market Research echoes GBT's leveraging of AI in IoT in its finding that globally, the AI in IoT market is projected to grow to $19.9 billion USD by 2025. This represents a compound annual growth rate ( CAGR ) of 25.89 percent from 2018-2025.
Recently, the company has announced R&D in analog computing, which Rittman points out will complement and enhance GBT's tech:
"Analog computing for artificial intelligence, and for machine learning, will enable much more further capabilities for the IoT domain," he said.
In a recent press release, Rittman expanded on the role of analog computing with regard to replicating human intelligence:
"With this new research activity we are laying the foundation of a true human-like learning system. Analog computing for machine learning enables robots to interact with humans, not only based on visual cues, but also according to tone of speech and body language. Our AI technology plans to incorporate both high and low-level computing, which we believe is a more accurate model of human intelligence." GBT Technologies Inc. develops Internet of Things ( IoT ) and artificial intelligence enabled mesh network and asset tracking IoT mobile technology. Its technology consists of a smart microchips, mobile application software, and supporting cloud software. The company also sells phones and phone card products, including PINS, SIM cards, gift cards, and prepaid long distance cards. In addition, it offers prepaid cellular phone minutes for domestic and international carriers; cellular activation services, such as activation of SIM cards with wireless carriers; and check processing, verification, and recovery solutions for small to medium sized businesses. The company was formerly known as Gopher Protocol Inc. and changed its name to GBT Technologies Inc. in August 2019. GBT Technologies Inc. was founded in 2009 and is headquartered in Santa Monica, California.
GBT Technologies (GTCH) Core Technology is a revolutionary new platform with products that will change the way people interact with technology and each other, because we believe that improving communications will benefit the modern world.

GBT’S TECHNOLOGY PLATFORM
Natively IoT Based
GBT Technologies’ core technology is a revolutionary new platform enabling products that will change the way people interact with technology and each other, because we believe that improving communications will benefit the modern world. GTCH Microchips communicate via a private, secure protocol and can interact with internal states – microchips communicate with other microchips – and external environments – microchips interact with cell phones, mobile apps, computers, tablets, tracking devices and many other digital devices, with access to conventional networks ( WiFi and Cellular).
Our goal for GopherInsight Microchips is to be installed in billions of mobile devices in the next few years. This will allow GTCH to create private secure communications networks that will enormously benefit organizational and individual users. We will utilize this private secure networks to improve the computing power, database management, internal memory, and security of devices equipped with GopherInsight Microchips. The potential is enormous and we are constantly developing more advanced features.
GTCH IS PROUD TO ANNOUNCE THAT THEIR TECHNOLOGY IS IOT (INTERNET OF THINGS) NATIVE, INCLUDING OUR EDA APPLICATIONS
The GBT platform is based on private, secured networks which connect physical objects that are accessible through the Internet. With the GBT platform, the IoT “Thing” could be a GBT Technologies product such as GuardianBracelet or GuardianOrb, or other fixed or mobile devices such as a tracker or a cellular phone that has a GopherInsight microchip installed.
Each one of these devices would be assigned an ID and IP address on our private secure network and would be able to collect and transfer data over the network without manual assistance or intervention.
In order to enhance the performance, security, RF capabilities and power consumption of our microchip technology , we implemented IoT methodologies within our EDA (Electronic Design Automation) computer programs Epsilon and Sigma. Each one of these programs is used during integrated circuit design for a variety of design enhancements. We have also added a feature called “IoT Aware,” which uniquely considers IoT challenges during chip design stages.
Our technology is targeted for integration into a wide variety of leading applications, among them are autonomous machines, smart drones, military and rescue, law enforcement, GEO tracking, medicine, robotics and more.
Our goal is to create a family of devices that is “Internet of Things-native” and controlled via our embedded software integrated into in many different kinds of systems. Our devices represent themselves digitally, and can be controlled from anywhere. GTCH products are connected to our private, secured communication protocol and enable our technology to control and manage more data from more places. This will ensure greater efficiency of digital and inter-personal communications, thus improving our lives and security.
