      I don't know, I didn't watch the video. Every ounce of explanation he gave during interviews for shutting down the buy side on GME (liquidity, client risk, etc) was complete and utter lies though.

    Vlad was margin called by the NSCC at 5am, Thurs, Jan 28th for $3B or face liquidation - in turn he manipulated the market by restricting user buying thus negatively affecting all traders who were long on GME. There were other broker/dealers besides Robinhood who also restricted buying on their platforms and they should be made to answer accordingly.

      Start an account elsewhere, with a real brokerage. Then talk to one of their advisors and ask then to help you transfer your account. If they are serious, they can probably "persuade" RH to release your assets to them.

    I like the idea we are "short" on knowledge on WSB case ;)
    I also like what you say, Lex, about how "people" can fight the system and big players, but I don't buy it too much ;)
    Some hedge funds went bonkers and lost tons of money. At least tons of money in a scope of regular person. People who are the wealthiest on the planet are there not only because of their fathers, but also because they find solutions how to make even more money on anything. It is a game they simply cannot lose. The only moment they lose is when they die ;) So, it is cool that people can put their hands on a game and shake it a little bit, but at the same time they do it, some clever guy sells tickets to the show :)

      @@CeeZee001 people loving Twitter and Facebook has nothing to do with wall street bets shorting the stock. Whether Twitter and Facebook continue to operate that will not change the fact that the share price will be plummeting. Most people who use Twitter and Facebook aren't traders so they'll have little impact whether the services are still on or not. Wall Street bets killed hedge funds in billions and all that's happened now is Wall Street bets gas far more members than it did in the gme saga.

Perhaps even a way to fund a new govt in a up and coming election by cleaning stolen money through secret casino deals and purchasing expensive art and selling it at higher price or lower depending on the loss
