Historical Context

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Feb 03 | Patent grant | Positive | +2.8% | U.S. patent grant for secure WebRTC real-time communications and content sharing. |
| Jan 28 | Marketing partnership | Positive | -0.5% | Gold sponsorship of The Photo Managers and launch of user acquisition campaign. |

Recent news has often been positive (product launches, patents, sponsorship), yet 4 of the last 5 events showed negative 24h price reactions, indicating a pattern of selling or muted response on good news.
Over the last few months, Myseum has shifted toward its privacy-first Picture Party platform, progressing from an iOS beta on December 17, 2025 to a full North American launch on January 13, 2026. The company also completed the sale of its ~34% RPM Interactive stake with implied consideration of about $6.5 million. Patent milestones, including a U.S. grant reported on February 3, 2026, strengthened its technology base. Today’s shareholder letter extends this trajectory by outlining monetization and business-focused Picture Party offerings.
Regulatory & Risk Context
An effective Form S-3 shelf dated 2025-11-26 allows Myseum to register and offer up to $25,000,000 of securities, with an additional $18,100,009.80 of unsold securities carried forward from a 2022 registration, providing flexibility for future capital raises via common stock, preferred stock, debt, warrants, rights, or units.
Market Pulse Summary
The stock moved -5.5% in the session following this news. A negative reaction despite management outlining growth initiatives would fit prior patterns, where launches, sponsorships, and patent wins often coincided with short-term price weakness. With shares still trading below the 200-day MA and well under the 52-week high, sentiment had remained fragile. The existing $25,000,000 shelf and additional $18,100,009.80 in carried-forward capacity could also have weighed on investors worried about potential capital raises.

NEW BRUNSWICK, N.J., Feb. 10, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Myseum, Inc. (Nasdaq: MYSE) (“Myseum” or the “Company”), a privacy-first social media and technology innovator, today issued a shareholder letter by CEO Darin Myman detailing the Company’s plans for revenue generation, developing Picture Party by Myseum (“Picture Party”) for influencers, continuing the development of its new safe social media technology, and executing on its strategic roadmap for near- and long-term growth.
Dear fellow shareholders,
The recent launch of Picture Party by Myseum has put us in an ideal position to take advantage of growing concerns about the privacy and safety of traditional social media. Over the next several months we will be launching new features, technology and platforms to use our patented technology to both create recurring revenue streams and also grow virally. Please keep in mind that Picture Party is a naturally viral technology that requires users to invite other users to join their picture party. Additionally, the focus on social media safety and AI concerns are creating important new uses for our platform.
Scheduled for release in March 2026, our new “Picture Party for Business” platform should provide important new revenue streams for the Company. We have been developing new technology for options such as adding moderators and previewing and approving posts that will allow businesses to control their own private social media environment while providing a direct connection with their customers, visitors or members. By offering both subscriptions and in-app purchases based on the size of the organization, these new features will make the platform attractive to businesses and organizations such as sports teams and events, concerts, wedding photographers, resorts, cruises, businesses, conventions, charities, clubs restaurants, bars, places of worship, party planners, wedding planners and pretty much any event or business where people are taking and posting photos and videos.
Leveraging our partnership with The Photo Managers and other affiliates, we are aiming to build a global network of hundreds of commission-based salespeople to quickly reach the millions of businesses and organizations that can benefit from our new social media technology. Additionally, we believe that new users sourced from businesses will adopt our platform into their personal lives, which should lead to significant advertising revenue for the Company.
Shortly after the release of the Picture Party for Business platform, we anticipate launching “Picture Party for Influencers.” Our new moderation tools combined with new and traditional revenue generation tools should be a very attractive value proposition for influencers.
Social media is headed for a monumental change. Global efforts to implement teen social media bans driven by mental health concerns are accelerating in 2026, with countries like Australia Spain and France having either already banned or are moving to restrict access for those under 15 or 16. These bans, often targeting platforms like Instagram, TikTok, and Snapchat, seek to limit exposure to cyberbullying and harmful content. At the same time, AI in social media has created significant new privacy concerns through massive data harvesting, automated surveillance, and predictive profiling without informed user consent. Key risks include the involuntary use of personal public-facing data to train AI models, voice/facial recognition surveillance, and the repurposing of user information for manipulative targeted advertising. Combining our advanced moderation tools in development with our privacy first platform creates a new market opportunity for Myseum. Parents or guardians would be able to create private and moderated social networks for younger users. Additional features such as moderator verification, post approval, invite approval and measuring social media time would be an integral part of this platform that would provide a safe space for our youth.
We have officially launched our user acquisition campaigns across multiple channels on Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, YouTube and the Apple App Store. You may view a sample of the ads that target events, parties, family gathering and youth sports on our YouTube channel.
The rising concerns of traditional social media, the privacy threat from AI, and the general need to create an easier and more and private way to share make this the most exciting and important time in our Company’s history. It is our strong belief that we are in the right place, at the right time and with the right technology to win big.
Sincerely,
Darin Myman
CEO
Myseum, Inc.
About Picture Party by Myseum
Picture Party by Myseum introduces a new way to make sharing photos and videos easier, a lot more fun, and private. Picture Party is much more than a shared album; it’s a complete personal and private social network with a live feed that updates instantly as all your guests’ posts. You can share a post with dozens of pictures, comment and react. It even organizes your photos in an album, or you can relive the Picture Party with all the comments and posts as they happened. Unlike group chats that are unorganized, no matter when you join the Picture Party, you can see everything from the beginning. Picture Party makes it easier and more fun to share with the people right next to you, or anywhere in the world.
Picture Party solves everyday sharing frustrations by eliminating the common headaches of modern photo sharing:
- No more passing around your phone for others to view your photos and videos.
- No more crowds gathering over your shoulder to see a clip.
- No more debating whether to text, drop, email, or tag group photos.
- No more struggling with social media privacy, data exposure, or AI training risks.
Whether you’re at a family gathering, wedding, sporting event, vacation, concert, school function, or business meeting, everyone becomes a photographer, and no moment is missed. Instantly share group shots without ever chasing people for their copies again.
How it works:
Picture Party lets users instantly create private, encrypted spaces — called Picture Parties — to share photos and videos in curated, personal feeds.
Users can:
- Create unlimited Picture Parties.
- Invite anyone via text, QR code, or in-app invite.
- Launch a Picture Party (a timed or ongoing shared event) in under a minute.
- Add titles, comments, and reactions to posts.
- Maintain complete control over privacy, interaction settings, and who can view or contribute.
Privacy:
The only people that can see your pictures are the ones who you invited to the picture party. All your media and texts are private and encrypted. You decide if pictures can be saved by your guests or who can invite people to the party.
The technology underpinning Picture Party by Myseum is supported by a newly allowed U.S. patent. The patent covers the core personal and private social networking architecture behind Picture Party and represents a significant milestone in Myseum’s intellectual property strategy. The Company believes the new IP is foundational to a new category of private social interaction and a key driver of long-term platform value.
