Regium: Extraordinary Claims Require Extraordinary Evidence

@Talisy Mate, when the founder of the website is saying you're a sock puppet of the disgraced closed account and scam account in website, you should probably stop digging.

Really Angel (or should I say E-whatever numbers go here in the chess.com forums), you're mensa, you know better than this.
There is such a thing as IP address which you'd expect engineers to know about, especially if they're capable of programming such an amazing device.
No, please keep digging Angel.

You can dig your way out of this one! just a bit further!
The movements on the chessboard in the 2nd video look quite convincing, and the technology they claim is used is not some magic, it's feasible.

The threat to sue Lichess, however, was extremely inappropriate, and only raises suspicions.

If they have a real product, they should demonstrate it to third-parties.
@Alayan they claim there's at least 9 electromagnets per square. Angel said in an interview it'd be less than a $1,000 per board. Do 9 X 64, then look up the bulk cost for even a cheap electromagnet. That's easily $2,500 in electromagnets alone. But maybe I should save this sort of thinking for a follow up article.
In my opinion clear video editing (fake movement), extra sketchy how they are reacting. Shameful.
Yeah also the ultra-thin board is a little sketch I think and even more importantly good electromagnets as @Cynosure said are expensive. The board is too cheap for what it would actually take to make
Unfortunately it is impossible to debate in this forum, everyone dances to the sound of the owner.
@Cynosure Why would these electromagnets need to be so expensive? Doesn't a cheap fan or anything with an electric motor have electromagnets? Sorry if this is an ignorant question, genuinely curious.
oof. Way to lose your target customers.
Unrelated: How do kickstarter funded companies have lawyers on retainer? That seems...odd.
