Significant Accounting Policies [Text Block]	NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Presentation The accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial reporting and pursuant to the instructions to Form 10 8 X. not three six June 30, 2017 not may December 31, 2017. December 31, 2016, 10 February 7, 2017. The accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company were prepared in accordance with GAAP and include the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries over which the Company exercises control. Intercompany transactions and balances were eliminated in consolidation. Use of Estimates The preparation of unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management of the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The Company’s significant estimates and assumptions include stock-based compensation and the valuation allowance related to the Company’s deferred tax assets, revenue recognition and establishing the fair value of its investments. Certain of the Company’s estimates could be affected by external conditions, including those unique to the Company and general economic conditions. It is reasonably possible that these external factors could have an effect on the Company’s estimates and could cause actual results to differ from those estimates and assumptions. Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit and money market accounts that, at times, may three Short term Investments The Company classifies its investment consisting of a certificate of deposit with a maturity greater than three one Earnings (Loss) per Share Basic earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net income (loss) applicable to common stock by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other instruments that are convertible into common stock were exercised or could result in the issuance of common stock.

In general, these revenue arrangements provide for the payment of contractually determined fees in consideration for the grant of certain intellectual property rights for patented technologies owned or controlled by the Company. A significant number of the patent licenses are granted on the entire portfolio rather than individual patents. Most of the intellectual property rights granted are perpetual in nature, extending until the expiration of the related patents, although they can be granted for a defined, relatively short period of time. The Company recognizes licensing and enforcement fees when there is persuasive evidence of a licensing arrangement, fees are fixed or determinable, delivery has occurred and collectability is reasonably assured. Costs Associated with Revenue Contingent legal and consulting fees are expensed in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations in the period that the related revenues are recognized. In instances where there are no no may no Fair Value Measurements The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, short term investment, accounts receivable, accounts payable and other current liabilities, approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. Fair value is defined as an exit price, representing the amount that would be received upon the sale of an asset or payment to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. Fair value is a market-based measurement that is determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. A three Level 1. Level 2. not Level 3. These valuation techniques involve some level of management estimation and judgment, the degree of which is dependent on the price transparency of the asset, liability or market and the nature of the asset or liability.

The decision to elect the fair value option, which is irrevocable once elected, is determined on an instrument by instrument basis and applied to an entire instrument. The net gains or losses, if any, on an investment for which the fair value option has been elected, are recognized as an unrealized gain on investment in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Revenue Concentrations The Company considers significant revenue concentrations to be counterparties or customers who account for 10% no three six June 30, 2017. six June 30, 2016, 96% two 66% three June 30, 2016, 100% one Stock Based Compensation The Company measures the cost of services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the fair value of the award. For employees and directors, the fair value of the award is measured on the grant date and for non-employees, the fair value of the award is generally measured on the measurement date and re-measured on each financial reporting date and vesting date until the service period is complete. The fair value amount is then recognized over the period services are required to be provided in exchange for the award, usually the vesting period. The Company recognizes employee stock-based compensation expense on a straight line basis over the requisite service period for each separately vesting tranche of each award. Stock-based compensation expense is reflected within operating expenses and cost of sales in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Property and Equipment, net Property and equipment consist primarily of computer and network hardware and are stated at cost net of accumulated depreciation and amortization expenses.

Actual results could differ from these estimates. The Company’s significant estimates and assumptions include stock-based compensation and the valuation allowance related to the Company’s deferred tax assets, revenue recognition and establishing the fair value of its investments.
