2025/12/26

A short promotional video appeared on GOLIATH VENTURES INC’s official social media accounts. Four hours later, it was gone. Before it disappeared, we secured the video and preserved the transcript. What it revealed was not transparency — it was a glimpse into how the narrative is being rewritten while investors remain unpaid.THE VIDEO THAT SHOULDN’T HAVE LASTEDThe video confidently spoke about the future — 2026, expansion, stability, and strength. It again referenced the previously disclosed $8.5

For weeks, investors were told payments were imminent. Specific dates were given. Confidence was projected. Assurances were repeated. Then the money didn’t arrive. What followed was silence, a luxury event, and eventually a carefully worded newsletter that raised more questions than it answered.This is a chronological breakdown of what actually happened, using Goliath’s own communications, timelines, and public behaviour.Read the full story about GOLIATH VENTURES INC on dehek.comIf you’d like to

The December 15–18 payout window was promised in writing. October catch-ups. November payouts. Everything owed. Normal schedule. As this window opened, investors began asking the same question at the same time: where is the money? What should have been a routine payout cycle instead exposed silence, confusion, and a growing list of red flags that can no longer be ignored.THE PROMISEOn December 3, 2025, Goliath Ventures Inc sent a newsletter assuring investors that the company was “fully back to its

Hours before Goliath Ventures Inc’s big Miami dinner, the company’s inner circle shifted from hype to panic. Instead of confidence, we suddenly saw a loyalty sermon from Tomo Marjanovic, wrapped in the new hashtag #GoliathStrong, urging his “brothers” not to walk away. It was clear something inside the organisation had fractured, and this message was attempting to hold together what was already slipping apart.THE MESSAGE THAT CHANGED EVERYTHINGI woke up to Tomo’s post and immediately recognised the

2025/11/20

On 18 November 2025, I watched Andrew Tate’s Hyperliquid balance collapse in real time. Months of reckless, high-leverage trading came to a brutal end as his account dropped to just $984. More than $727,000 of his own money and around $75,000 in referral bonuses had been wiped out with no withdrawals ever recorded.Four days earlier, GOLIATH VENTURES INC — a “quant fund” promoted across the same influencer ecosystem — suddenly froze payouts and claimed a “forensic audit” had begun. Their 14 November

Investors expecting their November 14th payouts woke to an unexpected message from Goliath Ventures Inc. The company claimed that distributions were being delayed due to a “forensic audit,” a phrase familiar to anyone who has watched a Ponzi scheme run out of road.At first glance, the

The first real sign of trouble came when investors began messaging me to say their payouts due on the 14th had not arrived. There were no advance warnings, no delays announced, and no meaningful explanations. Instead, a single excuse began to circulate among investors: the payouts were being blocked because of an “audit.”That claim didn’t match how real audits work.And that’s when the investigation began.THE AUDIT EXCUSETo understand why this raised red flags instantly, you have to know what a real

The press release paints Stephen Davis as a fallen fire chief who bravely left public service to start a parenting project and a publishing company. It reads like a feel-good comeback story. But buried behind this glossy narrative is the part he didn’t disclose: his role as Director of Administration for GOLIATH VENTURES INC, a company now at the centre of federal scrutiny.While the article highlights his podcasts, memoirs, and charity work, it never once mentions that the company he helps run was
