Form S-1 filed on February 7, 2024
Prospectus Summary, page 2
1.We note that there appear to be inconsistencies with current disclosures on the number of
shares outstanding before and after the distribution and the number of shares owned by
different individuals and entities before and after the distribution. For example:
•Above the beneficial ownership table you disclose that you have 100,000,000 shares
outstanding while footnote 1 to the table states that you have 109,500,000 shares
outstanding.
•The beneficial ownership table indicates that CorpTech Holding, Inc. currently
beneficially owns 25,000,00 shares of Palisades Venture and will beneficially own
25,000,000 shares after the distribution. Other disclosure indicates that CorpTech will
distribute its 25,000,000 shares to its shareholders as part of the distribution covered
by this registration statement. Accordingly, it would appear that CorpTech will not
beneficially own any shares of Palisades Venture after the distribution.

•You disclose in certain locations that Mr. Rechtman will beneficially own 75% of
Palisades Venture after the distribution in certain locations (e.g., page 10) and 69% in
other locations (e.g., page 32).
Please revise throughout the prospectus to clearly and consistently disclose:
•the number of shares outstanding both before and after the distribution; and
•the number of shares owned by: (1) Orie Rechtman; (2) CorpTech; and (3)
CorpTech shareholders both before and after the distribution. To the extent any
CorpTech shareholders will beneficially own more than 5% of Palisades Venture's
shares after the distribution, please include these individuals on the beneficial
ownership table.
2.We note that CorpTech, the selling shareholder in the distribution, was formerly a public
reporting company with Mr. Rechtman as its CEO. Please revise to disclose CorpTech
was previously a reporting company known as Crednology Holding Corporation,
CorpTech had its registration revoked in connection with a Section 12(j) proceeding and
describe Mr. Rechtman's involvement with CorpTech / Crednology. Please ensure Mr.
Rechtman's biography in the management section includes a discussion of his roles at
CorpTech / Crednology.
3.We note that you entered into an agreement with CorpTech where CorpTech will take
over the monthly payments of LiveWire and Palisades will pay CorpTech $2500 a month
for its share of the services provided. Please file your agreement with CorpTech as well as
CorpTech's agreement with LiveWire as exhibits. Additionally, revise your cover page to
prominently disclose that your business relies on your agreement with CorpTech, as well
as datacenters provided by Livewire Cloud service provider. In addition, clarify whether
your agreement with CorpTech was negotiated at arm's length, and to the extent it was
not, clarify that the terms of the agreement may not be as favorable to you as if it had been
negotiated at arm’s length with an unaffiliated third party.
4.Here you state that you intend to apply for quotation on the OTC Markets. Elsewhere,
you reference various NASDAQ and NYSE listing standards and other rules. As you are
not currently listed on either NASDAQ or NYSE and are not currently applying to be
listed on these exchanges, please remove references to these exchanges.
5.Please update your disclosure to reflect that the current revenue threshold for an EGC is
$1.235 billion. Refer to the definition of Emerging Growth Company in Rule 405 under
the Securities Act.

revenue for the nine months of 2023 was derived from your old vs new format.

Description of Business and Property
Overview, page 20
7.The business description's focus on the datacenters gives the impression that the company
owns datacenters. Please revise the description of business to explicitly state that a third-
party Livewire owns and operates the datacenters, and that Palisades contracts the
datacenters through CorpTech. In addition, include a discussion regarding whether
Palisades, CorpTech, or Livewire is responsible for conducting ongoing maintenance of
the datacenters. Finally, discuss the implications of such ownership for your business both
here and in the risk factor disclosures and as appropriate elsewhere in the registration
statement.
8.Please disclose the material terms of your agreements with each of your four major
customers that accounted for 75% of your total revenue in 2022, including the identity,
term, termination provisions and any minimum purchase requirements. File the
agreements with these customers as exhibits or tell us why they are not required to be
filed. In addition, to the extent material, disclose the total number of customers for each
period presented.
