If the attackers had a big short position in TWTR, they may have made a lot more money than they received from BTC.
- alwayseasy 6y agoShorts get caught. Easier to have Elon Musk tweet "I'll buy Hertz at $69 a share to make all their cars autonomous".
- therein 6y agoShorts don't get caught, they'd blend right into the WSB crowd. Also, if you had Elon tweet that, I am not sure if the price will go up or down like you expect. :)
- mekkkkkk 6y agoIs this really true though? If you ramp up multiple short positions under a few weeks from a lot of different accounts, how would you tell? I'm assuming TWTR is a pretty busy stock.
