On Twitter, everyone is saying WallStreetBets is going after Silver next. On WallStreetBets, there are only 3 posts on Silver in about the top 50, and they’re all warning everyone to stay away. Someone is orchestrating a serious disinformation campaign.

Coinbase has more than 4x the number of users of Robinhood. They did more revenue in the first quarter of Q1 than in all of 2020. And they're profitable to the tune of $730m-$800m. Wall Street is about to absolutely blow a gasket.
