Sorry, it doesn't. Among the claims, trolls for investors, and

much? In other words, exactly where is the evidence on which you based
your statement?

Multiband behavior of wideband Sierpinski fractal bow-tie antenna

interesting paper..

The big benefit (from a cursory reading).. is that you have a more
consistent antenna pattern over the frequency range, which the vanilla
bowtie does not. And a somewhat wider match bandwidth. (mostly extending
it to higher frequencies)

Nothing magic, though.
