Item 8.01 Other Events
On November 29, 2021 and December 6, 2021, the registrant executed press releases announcing the release of a feature in its Arknet App permitting influencers to post augmented reality (“AR”) objects called “Portals” allowing app users to enter the influencers' spaces called their “Realms” via AR, and experience an influencer’s Realm in 360-degree streaming imagery, as if the user were inside the Realm. Although this Portal/Realm feature release is merely the next in a long sequence of important app feature releases, and is not a material event of the registrant, we believe it may be a bridge to the eventual metaverse, and for this reason is useful to our shareholders appreciation of the registrant’s progress.

Tautachrome (OTC: TTCM) Announces Immersive 360-degree Video Realms with Upcoming Subscriptions for Content Creators
ORO VALLEY, AZ – November 29, 2021 (GlobeNewswire) Tautachrome (OTC: TTCM) today announced the release of ARknet App Version 1.9.13, adding the ability to post immersive, 360-degree video Realms, and upcoming subscriptions abilities enabling content creator revenues.
Content creators and influencers are always in need of ever greater sophistication to amplify the effect of their postings. This release of immersive, 360-degree video Realms in the ARknet App significantly increases the sophistication of the content that creators and influencers can post.
This release allows an influencer to post any 360-degree video in an immersive AR format. In this immersive format users hold up their phone in the App’s AR mode where they then see the post as an arched doorway, or portal, which they can walk through. Upon walking through the portal, they find themselves in the influencer’s Realm, able to look around with their phone and view the 360-degree video as if they were standing in the Realm. Our new video streaming technology makes this possible and allows for the creation of incredibly unique content.
We believe this unique feature will gain viral attention on other popular social platforms allowing us to partner with influencers on these other platforms to introduce their followership to ARknet.
Tautachrome CEO Dr. Jon N. Leonard commented, “Having done the hard work of building the ARknet platform, we can more easily layer in things like our immersive 360-degree streaming video feature. Watch also for live 360 video, which we plan to introduce in the future.”
David LaMountain, Tautachrome’s COO said today, “There has been three years of non-stop work to get us to the point we are at today. The time is now for Tautachrome and ARknet liftoff.”

Tautachrome (OTC: TTCM) Predicts ARknet’s Role in the Metaverse
ORO VALLEY, AZ – December 6, 2021 (GlobeNewswire) Tautachrome (OTC: TTCM) today predicts the way its ARknet Platform will play in the approaching, inevitable Metaverse.
The coming Metaverse promises to be a colossal virtual version of the internet consisting of a massively scaled and interoperable network of immersive worlds where unlimited numbers of people and businesses continuously interact. It will consist of a large ecosystem of providers, developers and content creators generating the content on and collecting the revenues built on underlying platforms. (https://www.matthewball.vc/all/forwardtothemetaverseprimer.)
The Metaverse does not yet exist. But it is on its way. The tech giant Facebook has changed its name to “Meta,” and Microsoft and Nvidia are both working on their own Metaverse related activities. When the Metaverse comes, as we are certain it will, the Company’s ARknet Platform is preparing to supply it with real-world information that it will need. We are currently working to develop relationships with one or more of these tech giants to move our visions forward.
Despite its promise of unending virtual reality, the Metaverse must live in a real world with users living in the real world. User activities that take place in the real world will reflect into the Metaverse in ways that make sense and have value to the Metaverse. This will include AR information that people use to ply the real world. We intend to be a primary supplier to the Metaverse of such real-world AR information, some of which we expect to be AR information from our our own ARks, and some of which will be AR information flowing from others.
Last week we announced a new advanced Platform feature, the Portal AR feature that allows users to enter through a Portal into a virtual space created by a different user. The Platform aims to use advanced versions of this Portal AR feature to let users observe events inside the Metaverse like outside observers peering in.
Dr. Jon N Leonard, Tautachrome CEO said today “The way we see it whatever the Metaverse winds up becoming and whatever shape it takes, we want the ARknet Platform to act on the Metaverse from the outside, feeding real-world data in, and extracting virtual information out. The Portal feature could give users a cool way to see into the Metaverse without having to be inside it.”
