      The short traders were not outsmarted. They took a temporary loss but they reloaded their short positions at a much higher price and a lot of those positions were covered today. Essentially, the Reddit idiots created a much better, more profitable short trade for the hedge funds. And what about the Reddit guys that bought on the way up???...........they got crushed....Game Stop topped at $483......it closed today at $90.....an 84% decline. The Reddit guys buying on the way up lost all of their money and the hedge funds made all of their money back plus billons more. Seriously, hedge fund traders are professionals. They understand the game. Guys buying shares of stock because someone on Reddit, who probably lives in their mom's basement, told them too.....they don't know what they are doing.

      However, and it pains me to say this, he is right about the small investors losing eventually. The hedge funds can play this game indefinitely for they have influx of capital from their friends and it will become a war of nerves, where one side is made by people that pull in different directions and the other just one direction, according to a plan.
      One thing is sure about this whole situation. It proved that the proposed UBI we've heard about, WILL NEVER WORK.

Indeed its a tough decision for both old and newbies whose intensions are just to hodl and sell but rather the potentials of tradn Btc would allow you grow your Btc not minding the present price chart and also saving your ass from any future deep that may occur . I started tradn with Daniel Wríght since late last year and till date have made over 14 Btc even with the ups and downs since the journey . With Daniel’s help I no longer have to worry about the rise and dip of Bitcoin , you can easily get to Daniel on : Teleg : ram : Danielwrightfx.
