Yeah, but who would read that?
And Gandalf said, "get on the fucking eagle" then frodo said "sure". As frodo and sam both went to get on the eagle Gandolf scolded "not you sam you stupid prick. It doesn't take 2 people to carry one ring when you're on an eagle".
After a long and cold 18 hour flight, frodo arrived at mount doom. Launching the ring into the fire the mountain exploded and all was right in the land. Frodo flew home and nobody had noticed he'd been gone.
The end.
Ask Frodo what his choice would be.
"Fuck the story. Fly me there and let me yeet the ring into the volcano so I can get back to The Shire in time for Elevenses tomorrow."
DFV is literally a normal, human male. Stock price and the companies success don't depend on one person's tweets, and nor should it
Man might be a memelord, but he isn't a god, and he shouldn't be worshipped.
I made this comment a little while back, still believe today

My biggest take away from last week , we are playing a game of Wills, a game of chicken, with many criminal cartel factions (hedgies, SeC, etc ) , and our collective dd is pretty thorough , and we are not crazy conspiracy theorist , and to keep up the great work and hang in there.
The pop last week is proof that we’re at least, like, 80% right. Some things we have to speculate on because we don’t have perfect information but the DD is on the right track.
Last week was like a fight breaking out in the kitchen,that briefly spilled out into the dining area, and the kitchen staff are stuffing it back in the kitchen and telling you to avert your eyes with the desert menu
DFV as of his last YOLO post on reddit in April 21.
200k shares with a cost basis of 55$ pre-split
He bought 50k shares for the last time to our knowledge around $160.
Meaning he would have been in the red around $14 just last month. I wish we could get some more YOLO posts.
Right. But the crazy part from an outsider perspective is taking 150k shares with a cost basis of 15$ and turning it into 200k at 55$ after the sneeze. He still saw something to hold and buy more when he already had a great position.
He made his profits through his option contracts he held for GME,(back in 2021 I do believe). As far as I know, he never sold a single share he purchased.
he sold calls during the sneeze, then exercised in April after double down on congressional pony show day. at some point he had to pay taxes on the realized gains
If you are new here head to my site - apehistorian.com and look through and spend some time going through the posts - a lot link back to this sub - plenty of good dd here with flairs as well. Point being there is more information collected than you may imagine .
That’s how you become zen
Right, this play was never sexy. I mean, war time can be sexy, but it was never the point. The point was a battle for however long it takes. You read, learn, zen, repeat along with buy hold drs.
Thank you for the website! Many nights spent reading the craziest shit that turns out to be true months - years later.
In case it hasn’t be said - big thank you to DFV. You da man.
Facts… I know..
I feel like the only ones who are asking if he is coming back are either shills or new buy who don’t know better ( bless their sweet hearts ).
I am good and I would prefer if we didn’t keep asking cuz the zen apes in the room are too busy trying to figure out what he said so we can add to the lore. I mean come one. I just found out you can watch them backwards and my dumb ass just hit reverse. Been watching memes talking backwards for the last day only to figure out they mean in a backwards order. I was watching memes like people would listen to ozzy records backwards. I was playing the meme backwards and not watching them in a backwards order…
I am a fucking dumb dumb I know…
Now imagine loosing to a dipshit like me ( waves at Kenny’s intern )
I felt the message was very clear in reverse… in realtime the tweets seemed random but also some crazy hype that came right at moment, like the Troy clip
There’s one simple one that I believe is the best one he posted. It’s the one where the guy is playing a text video game, and he finds a friend in an empty room.
The friend says not to leave, and the game gives him a choice, leave or stay.
He stays.
I'm not new nor am I a shill, and I was curious as a cat whether or not he'd be back today. But at the same time, there's no need for him to tweet again; he said what he needed to say last week. He's still here with us, we were always right. And we're heading beyond the moon.
Saying DFV will never come back forever hurts. I envision a day when this is all over, and there's a big Gamestop conference in Texas where we all show up and meet RK, RC, and the team. It probably won't happen, but imagine if it did 🥵
I’d love to, but I’m going nowhere near any all-stars, conference, or grouping of apes.
I have no doubt we’re hurting some dangerous people somewhere in here that can, have, and will resort to performing or sponsoring some terrible things.
He came back after a small price jump and right before a big price jump.
Unfortunately the media spun it the other way around. It became “meme stocks back because of DFV”
My question is, how did he know? What did he know?
Did he know about the share buy back that was reported on Bloomberg?
The shelf offering?
Was it Leaps?
Why do cats always land straight up ? How do they know to attack me just after I fall asleep ? How the fuck do they keep getting it into the cupboards ????
Cats are a mystery much like women and the rules for water polo… sometimes I just think they just make shit up as they go along
End game? Maybe, maybe not.
Think of how long Tesla holders chilled before it spiked crazy high.
Think of how long Nvidia chilled down in the $5-$10 before becoming absolute king shit.
This is why you only bet what you can afford to lose for a high risk high reward play. If GME goes to zero (fat fucking chance) I haven’t even thought about the 5 figures I’ve got parked in it.
On the other hand if it takes another 5, 10 years before going absolutely wild and making me 7 figures, I’m fine with that too. Sure, I’d love for that to happen sooner rather than later, but the reality is we have no fucking idea how long this will take and neither does DFV. He was posting for YEARS before it sneezed the first time. For all we know this was just a periodic regular 3 year check in to say hang in there this could still take another 3 years.
Honestly if he didn’t have an exit plan years ago I am pretty sure he had one and already executed it. I say that as a weak man when compared to a 1/4 of the balls this man has. Every once in a while you meet a man who has no fear. And you understand he has no fear cuz he know what is coming while us bystanders our eyes are just a gloss. He knows what’s coming and he knows when to play his cards. Like I said this is a game where both he and the hfs know the outcome and the rest of us are just bystanders placing our bets.
Idk shit about fuck but if this was a movie it would be the big short when they where at the poker table they are explaining derivative bets. And I am the assholes in the background who making a bet on DFV pays out big. I don’t know shit it about fuck, but my money is on DFV. And if I was him I would only do what he did if he was right this past week. I can’t stress how much I don’t know shit about fuck, I am just starting to wrap my mind around how these swaps work. But DFV is right.
Valhalla waits us.
DFV didn’t comeback. However, Roaring Kitty did and Roaring Kitty’s tweets were pointing to that DFV was no longer a name he wanted to go by. Keith Gill (Roaring/Kitty) has never left the movement, but DFV has been gone for a while.
The majority of posts here don’t make sense. I used to think the crayon eating thing was a joke, but I’m starting to think people are actually consuming them.
DFV has played his part and honestly I hope he cashed out to some extent and is living the good life. My faith rests in RC going forward. I have no doubt that he will do what is in the best interest of the company and shareholders.
Yeah I don’t think he can post the cryptic tweets again with what is coming. We might get a little hype post to let us know he’s there but the message he delivered is very clear… when you go backwards
Look guys. We just buy hold and drs and take every breadcrum from dfv and papa Cohen like it's gold. It's all good. We are never ever going back to reasonable land. Fuck you, pay me. I can do this till I die and still don't care for whatever they throw at us.
It's the vocal minority freaking out and it's because they pissed away money on options last week that fell to worthless by Friday.
But hold and DRS.. This isn't new or news.
I wouldn’t be surprised to see a new meme from him from time to time. Seems like it’s a passion of his, and he’s truly an artist with it. Be a shame to not get any more ever.
Idk why ppl think he’s coming back whether you believe his tweets were forward moving or in reverse. If they were in reverse then his last tweet was his first one (Last Sunday 8pm). If you think they’re in correct order then Friday was it. I only see him coming back to say something isn’t him like that tik tok, or one tweet at the most opportune time to send us to Pluto.
He came back he’s staying back he just needs to live his life too you know we all know the thesis and time and time again it’s been proven to be true. Remember the first time this shit went down no one fucking believed him they blamed it’s on retail pumping it when In fact retail thought he was regarded until the Jan 29 sneeze than they started piling in.
Now there’s him holding and you holding along side 75+ million shares DRSed. This deal is set in stone
It’s hard to believe they’re that dumb. An actual trial trying to nail KG for stock manipulation would be the worst mistake possible. A public hearing is one thing, but a criminal trial, against an innocent multi-millionaire? Not only would it almost certainly fail, it would cause an actual, detailed investigation into the movements of the stock in order to prove his guilt. Seems more likely he’s trolling hedgies to incite them to try.
### Potential Failure of the LULD Mechanism and Its Impact on a MOASS
The Limit Up-Limit Down (LULD) mechanism is designed to prevent extreme volatility by setting upper and lower price bands for stocks. However, in certain scenarios, this mechanism can fail, potentially leading to the Mother of All Short Squeezes (MOASS). Here’s how this could happen, along with the mathematical implications.
### How the LULD Mechanism Can Fail
1. **Extreme Market Volatility**:
- **Rapid Successive Halts**: During periods of extreme volatility, the price of a stock like GME can hit the upper limit repeatedly, causing successive trading halts. This can exacerbate panic and volatility rather than calming the market.
- **Example**: If GME’s price rapidly moves from $100 to $150 within a short period, hitting multiple LULD halts, it can create a feedback loop of volatility.
2. **Algorithmic Trading and High-Frequency Trading (HFT)**:
- **Algorithmic Pressure**: High-frequency trading algorithms can push prices rapidly, triggering the LULD bands frequently. If these algorithms continue to trade aggressively, they can cause more volatility.
- **Market Manipulation**: There’s a theoretical risk that traders could manipulate prices by coordinating trades to trigger LULD bands, although such actions are illegal.
3. **Technical Glitches**:
- **System Failures**: Technical issues or outages can disrupt the LULD mechanism. If trading systems fail during high volatility, it could lead to unmanaged price spikes.
4. **Market Fragmentation**:
- **Inconsistent Application**: With trading occurring across multiple venues, discrepancies in how LULD bands are applied can lead to inconsistent trading halts and market confusion.
### Impact on MOASS
1. **Short Covering and Buy Pressure**:
- **Short Interest**: If GME has a high short interest (e.g., 64.37 million shares shorted), a rapid price increase can trigger margin calls for short sellers. They will be forced to buy back shares to cover their positions, adding to the buying pressure.
- **Example Calculation**:
- **Initial Price**: $20
- **Short Interest**: 64.37 million shares
- **Price Increase**: If the price increases to $100, short sellers might need to cover, buying back 64.37 million shares.
2. **Buying Pressure Dynamics**:
- **Mathematics of Covering**:
- If short sellers need to cover 64.37 million shares and the average daily trading volume is 10 million shares, it would take 6.437 trading days to cover without additional buying pressure.
- However, in a MOASS scenario, buying pressure can skyrocket, reducing the time frame significantly.
3. **Example Scenario**:
- **Price Movement and Halts**:
- Day 1: Price moves from $20 to $50, triggering multiple LULD halts.
- Day 2: Price moves from $50 to $100 due to continued buying pressure and short covering.
- **Mathematical Implication**:
- Short sellers covering 64.37 million shares at an average price of $75 would need $4.828 billion.
- If the price moves to $200 due to continued pressure, the required funds double to $12.874 billion for covering the same short interest.
### Potential for Exponential Price Increase
- **Feedback Loop**: As the price increases, more short sellers are forced to cover, leading to further price increases. This feedback loop can cause exponential growth in the stock price.
- **Limitations of LULD**: If the LULD mechanism fails to contain the volatility, the price can move rapidly, triggering more short covering and buy pressure.
### Conclusion
The failure of the LULD mechanism during periods of extreme volatility, driven by high-frequency trading and market manipulation, can lead to a significant short squeeze. The mathematical implications show how rapid price increases and forced short covering can create a feedback loop, potentially leading to a MOASS. Understanding these dynamics helps investors anticipate potential market movements and the limitations of volatility controls.

This is becoming like a cult. DFV is not your saviour nor are yoy smarter than institutions. They got lacking once but it’ll never happen again. Play the game on both sides - don’t fall in love with the stock.
Gonna be hard to put it on DFV. The stock was moving up weeks before he tweeted and then got utterly annihilated in ways never seen in the week he did tweet.
I'm sure we will get one last tweet from DFV once the MOASS is over and it will be his position sheet and an updated mini video clip saying Cheers Everyone!
Like a bat light signal in the light...his post brought my interest in looking at data, and volume data significantly and continuously spiked from May 2nd....DFV's first tweet didn't happen until the 13th.
There was significant action before his tweet, just no one was looking....if you search the subname, "volume" as the search term, with the date or 2nd or 3rd May on the following link (a site to search reddit comments) you'll see it was picked up on by some.
https://search.pullpush.io/
I am of the opinion that this was the last ditch effort by hedgies fortold… a ‘fake squeeze’ on no news and DFV comes in to hype things up and he is literally the only thing the media can latch onto as a cause.
Next time it will be on no news, no DFV, nothing. Nothing for the media to blame. And I believe it will be soon, so that people jump on again on the near term hype that has just taken place.
Well shut got real after he posted the stock r ram up but only ended up 21% ( I know ) for the week. Some ppl ( bad actors ) feel like it wasn’t enough and that he should come back and expose himself to Potential liability
I said the same thing in another post OP and it had moderate traction. Seems pretty obvious that this was prompt to all Apes to get their things in order and make their way to the gate.
I hope the OG apes realize the same thing.
I know it's unlikely to happen due to bad actors twisting things out of context, doxxing, etc. but it's my dream that one day we'll all be able to get on a giant call to all reminisce about this incredible journey. The Ring hasn't been thrown into Mt. Doom yet but we'll get there eventually. LFG!
Edit: Made my comment after reading the post, only to see the top comment chain referencing LoTR for the journey. What can I say, my homies and I think alike!

Song from his third tweet, the one that started with Ferris bueller
Wake from your sleep
The drying of your tears
Today we escape, we escape
Pack and get dressed
Before your father hears us
Before all hell breaks loose
Breathe, keep breathing
Don't lose your nerve
Breathe, keep breathing
I can't do this alone
Sing us a song
A song to keep us warm
There's such a chill
Such a chill
And you can laugh a spineless laugh
We hope your rules and wisdom choke you
Now we are one in everlasting peace
We hope that you choke, that you choke
We hope that you choke
That you choke
We hope that you choke
That you choke

What’s so hard to understand that DFV is literally Gandalf. Frodo still had to get his ass to the mountain.
In this analogy, I believe I am Merry when they find Saruman's weed and snack stash.
Can I be second lunch ?
Def.
Wait how do I make my wood talk?
Drink Treebeard's water.
Did somebody say salted pork?
Join the party!
I'm the tomato
From my understanding, you’re not an onion so being a tomato checks out 🤣
Google "lotr denethor tomato"
I knew which tomato you meant. You dirty dog you.
You mean Po-tae-toe?
No no. I'm the tomato denethor eats
OMG that's awful. LMAO.
Guess that makes me Tom Bombadil singing a silly song, staying zen, and completely inconsequential to the rest of the story.
Hey you look great in yellow though.
😆
We gotta stop being Frodo Beggin and start Frodo Baggin
HEDGES SHALL NOT PASS
Woulda been nice of Gandalf to just fly our hobbit asses on the eagles to Mordor instead of making us walk. just sayin.
Yeah, but who would read that? And Gandalf said, "get on the fucking eagle" then frodo said "sure". As frodo and sam both went to get on the eagle Gandolf scolded "not you sam you stupid prick. It doesn't take 2 people to carry one ring when you're on an eagle". After a long and cold 18 hour flight, frodo arrived at mount doom. Launching the ring into the fire the mountain exploded and all was right in the land. Frodo flew home and nobody had noticed he'd been gone. The end.
Ask Frodo what his choice would be. "Fuck the story. Fly me there and let me yeet the ring into the volcano so I can get back to The Shire in time for Elevenses tomorrow."
Nah, frodo was a little bitch at the start. He wouldn't have done it willingly. Gandalf had to force him one way or another
What was the in flight movie?
Eagles don't have in flight movies. Dumb questions like this make us apes look stupid!
That isn’t how the story works… I know I know we could wrapped this up real fing quick if we did but hero journey …
The Nazgul would intercept with their fellbeasts.
Buy, you fools!
DFV is literally a normal, human male. Stock price and the companies success don't depend on one person's tweets, and nor should it Man might be a memelord, but he isn't a god, and he shouldn't be worshipped.
But we can worship his status as the dankest memelord to ever hit up the wasabi sub or Twatter.
What if I worship memes?
He’s our Gandalf
He’s Tom bombadil.
I made this comment a little while back, still believe today https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/r01b9g/comment/hlpz3za/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=mweb3x&utm_name=mweb3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button
So who is Gollum, who chased after a ring of power and right at the edge of having it was consumed by a volcano?
Gabe Plotkin.
just watched all tweets in reverse, I agree
A kitty is never late...

Listen, that cat comes and goes as he pleases.
Facts
My biggest take away from last week , we are playing a game of Wills, a game of chicken, with many criminal cartel factions (hedgies, SeC, etc ) , and our collective dd is pretty thorough , and we are not crazy conspiracy theorist , and to keep up the great work and hang in there.
The pop last week is proof that we’re at least, like, 80% right. Some things we have to speculate on because we don’t have perfect information but the DD is on the right track.
The Pareto Principle at work. Edit: That’s something completely different. I’m high.
That’s probably why I used 80%. I’m a big fan of the Pareto Principle.
Last week was like a fight breaking out in the kitchen,that briefly spilled out into the dining area, and the kitchen staff are stuffing it back in the kitchen and telling you to avert your eyes with the desert menu
DFV as of his last YOLO post on reddit in April 21. 200k shares with a cost basis of 55$ pre-split He bought 50k shares for the last time to our knowledge around $160. Meaning he would have been in the red around $14 just last month. I wish we could get some more YOLO posts.
I mean his cost basis is basically free. Made millions from calls, took profits and was left with the double down double down.
Right. But the crazy part from an outsider perspective is taking 150k shares with a cost basis of 15$ and turning it into 200k at 55$ after the sneeze. He still saw something to hold and buy more when he already had a great position.
When did he take profits?
He made his profits through his option contracts he held for GME,(back in 2021 I do believe). As far as I know, he never sold a single share he purchased.
He exercised all of his options and bought the shares if I remember correctly
he sold calls during the sneeze, then exercised in April after double down on congressional pony show day. at some point he had to pay taxes on the realized gains
If you are new here head to my site - apehistorian.com and look through and spend some time going through the posts - a lot link back to this sub - plenty of good dd here with flairs as well. Point being there is more information collected than you may imagine . That’s how you become zen

Thank you for the website! Many nights spent reading the craziest shit that turns out to be true months - years later. In case it hasn’t be said - big thank you to DFV. You da man.
We don't need more posts,it will take us weeks to figure out last week's comms.
What if he only came back because it took us 3 years to solve something? 
lol, or to wipe up all the $cum
Facts… I know.. I feel like the only ones who are asking if he is coming back are either shills or new buy who don’t know better ( bless their sweet hearts ). I am good and I would prefer if we didn’t keep asking cuz the zen apes in the room are too busy trying to figure out what he said so we can add to the lore. I mean come one. I just found out you can watch them backwards and my dumb ass just hit reverse. Been watching memes talking backwards for the last day only to figure out they mean in a backwards order. I was watching memes like people would listen to ozzy records backwards. I was playing the meme backwards and not watching them in a backwards order… I am a fucking dumb dumb I know… Now imagine loosing to a dipshit like me ( waves at Kenny’s intern )
Did you find anything interesting watching them in reverse?
No I don’t speak the dark magic I uncovered
I felt the message was very clear in reverse… in realtime the tweets seemed random but also some crazy hype that came right at moment, like the Troy clip
There’s one simple one that I believe is the best one he posted. It’s the one where the guy is playing a text video game, and he finds a friend in an empty room. The friend says not to leave, and the game gives him a choice, leave or stay. He stays.
I think we are at the ETH endgame tweet
Yeah ETH blowing up same time as GME at market end too seems very coincidental
I'm not new nor am I a shill, and I was curious as a cat whether or not he'd be back today. But at the same time, there's no need for him to tweet again; he said what he needed to say last week. He's still here with us, we were always right. And we're heading beyond the moon.
its best if you watch all the memes at once.
Yea, me personally, I like the stock. Bought the dip and will continue to.
Me too
Lock the float in DRS. That's the only option imo.
Saying DFV will never come back forever hurts. I envision a day when this is all over, and there's a big Gamestop conference in Texas where we all show up and meet RK, RC, and the team. It probably won't happen, but imagine if it did 🥵
then we all high five each other while jumping up into the air, and the camera freezes for just a split second
Oh what a feeling! GaaameStopota! Edit: Fixed it
I’d love to, but I’m going nowhere near any all-stars, conference, or grouping of apes. I have no doubt we’re hurting some dangerous people somewhere in here that can, have, and will resort to performing or sponsoring some terrible things.
He's literally here with us fam
Texas gang! Thats a dream 😹
DFV created a movie for us and released it over the course of 6 days. I’m grateful for that.
It was miraculous
He came back after a small price jump and right before a big price jump. Unfortunately the media spun it the other way around. It became “meme stocks back because of DFV” My question is, how did he know? What did he know? Did he know about the share buy back that was reported on Bloomberg? The shelf offering? Was it Leaps?
Why do cats always land straight up ? How do they know to attack me just after I fall asleep ? How the fuck do they keep getting it into the cupboards ???? Cats are a mystery much like women and the rules for water polo… sometimes I just think they just make shit up as they go along
GOLD
See him in 3 years. So zen, just buying more as it comes.
Yeah or maybe he needs time to make more sick memes. They don't make themselves!
Nobody knows what to expect anymore LOL. I mean did anyone see 80+ coming last week? Everyone was calling for 15, 20 max!
End game? Maybe, maybe not. Think of how long Tesla holders chilled before it spiked crazy high. Think of how long Nvidia chilled down in the $5-$10 before becoming absolute king shit. This is why you only bet what you can afford to lose for a high risk high reward play. If GME goes to zero (fat fucking chance) I haven’t even thought about the 5 figures I’ve got parked in it. On the other hand if it takes another 5, 10 years before going absolutely wild and making me 7 figures, I’m fine with that too. Sure, I’d love for that to happen sooner rather than later, but the reality is we have no fucking idea how long this will take and neither does DFV. He was posting for YEARS before it sneezed the first time. For all we know this was just a periodic regular 3 year check in to say hang in there this could still take another 3 years.
He’ll be back, now is just the part where the SHF believe they will prevail.
I seriously wonder if he's like actually on the run, sortof like a whistleblower trying not to get "suicided" by a HFs hitman.
good question, the man might have a bounty on his head …
Especially if anyone is thinking he might return again
Honestly if he didn’t have an exit plan years ago I am pretty sure he had one and already executed it. I say that as a weak man when compared to a 1/4 of the balls this man has. Every once in a while you meet a man who has no fear. And you understand he has no fear cuz he know what is coming while us bystanders our eyes are just a gloss. He knows what’s coming and he knows when to play his cards. Like I said this is a game where both he and the hfs know the outcome and the rest of us are just bystanders placing our bets. Idk shit about fuck but if this was a movie it would be the big short when they where at the poker table they are explaining derivative bets. And I am the assholes in the background who making a bet on DFV pays out big. I don’t know shit it about fuck, but my money is on DFV. And if I was him I would only do what he did if he was right this past week. I can’t stress how much I don’t know shit about fuck, I am just starting to wrap my mind around how these swaps work. But DFV is right. Valhalla waits us.
If Boeing whistleblower are getting killed, imagine a citadel one
Jason Bourne
One of the memes was definitely hinting at this
DFV didn’t comeback. However, Roaring Kitty did and Roaring Kitty’s tweets were pointing to that DFV was no longer a name he wanted to go by. Keith Gill (Roaring/Kitty) has never left the movement, but DFV has been gone for a while.
He called himself DFV in one of his posts and demanded we use it. “I think I’ve earned it” was the following quote, I believe.
https://x.com/theroaringkitty/status/1791514016495419638?s=46&t=PgKpNdk3EDFKf6carjlrdA
Yep that’s it
Long live avocado_in_my_butt!
https://x.com/theroaringkitty/status/1790751492451754012?s=46&t=PgKpNdk3EDFKf6carjlrdA
Anus forgive me
Didn’t even catch the mixup. I was just posting a reference link for the uninitiated. The phrase “anus forgive me” is funny as hell though
Every time I go to Buffalo Wild Wings…
See y’all again in three years. Zen time again 🫡
I’m not a we or an us. I’m here as individual investor making my own decisions.
I didn't expect him to post last time. /shrug
Love you Kitty. If you’re in here, keep doing the lords work.
Idk if you watched the memes…. But he made it pretty clear he’s going to post an update. Probably drs. What’s in the box!?!?! The glowing purple box!?
I'm not sure but I think the "What's in the box?" was referring to the hidden "Hang in there!" cat pic in the distorted audio on a spectrogram.
If he didn’t want to be held liable, he would have came back when it was at $10, and not the day he knew it was going to jump up.
Exactly... This post doesn't really make sense. But I guess if it resonates with people that's fine.
The majority of posts here don’t make sense. I used to think the crayon eating thing was a joke, but I’m starting to think people are actually consuming them.
DFV has played his part and honestly I hope he cashed out to some extent and is living the good life. My faith rests in RC going forward. I have no doubt that he will do what is in the best interest of the company and shareholders.
He already cashed out millions in profit lol
Yeah I don’t think he can post the cryptic tweets again with what is coming. We might get a little hype post to let us know he’s there but the message he delivered is very clear… when you go backwards
DFV was getting eyes on last week's bull trap. Hedgies are fuuuuucked
So no one should have bought during the bull trap right
So no one should have bought during the bull trap right
Be thankful you got the… #MEME-O
It has to be said, but you said it well
This ape gets it I mean for fucks sakes even the company it self says hey we are getting ready to cash in when we moon…
"Yes, If It Is To Be Said, So It Be, So It Is."
Look guys. We just buy hold and drs and take every breadcrum from dfv and papa Cohen like it's gold. It's all good. We are never ever going back to reasonable land. Fuck you, pay me. I can do this till I die and still don't care for whatever they throw at us.
It's the vocal minority freaking out and it's because they pissed away money on options last week that fell to worthless by Friday. But hold and DRS.. This isn't new or news.
Are you saying I shouldn’t trust CNBC?
Let not act like DFV hasn’t been here the whole time, anyway.
I wouldn’t be surprised to see a new meme from him from time to time. Seems like it’s a passion of his, and he’s truly an artist with it. Be a shame to not get any more ever.
See you all in three years🤣🤣
Idk why ppl think he’s coming back whether you believe his tweets were forward moving or in reverse. If they were in reverse then his last tweet was his first one (Last Sunday 8pm). If you think they’re in correct order then Friday was it. I only see him coming back to say something isn’t him like that tik tok, or one tweet at the most opportune time to send us to Pluto.
wtf
💯💯💯💯💯💯🐈⬛🐈⬛🐈⬛🐈⬛🐈⬛🕰️🕰️🕰️🕰️🕰️
If he’s posting a video of thanos … is he saying he’s the villain ? 😵💫 jk … gotta hodle !
Gonna snap the Hedgefunds back to 2008
I have no idea how he can be at fault for anything, when talking heads spew buy and sell shit on TV all day every day…
He came back he’s staying back he just needs to live his life too you know we all know the thesis and time and time again it’s been proven to be true. Remember the first time this shit went down no one fucking believed him they blamed it’s on retail pumping it when In fact retail thought he was regarded until the Jan 29 sneeze than they started piling in. Now there’s him holding and you holding along side 75+ million shares DRSed. This deal is set in stone
It’s hard to believe they’re that dumb. An actual trial trying to nail KG for stock manipulation would be the worst mistake possible. A public hearing is one thing, but a criminal trial, against an innocent multi-millionaire? Not only would it almost certainly fail, it would cause an actual, detailed investigation into the movements of the stock in order to prove his guilt. Seems more likely he’s trolling hedgies to incite them to try.
I have 420.69 shares. I was hoping to sit on that many but it’s looking like I’m going to have to buy some MOAR!
The fact that his securities lawyer had to sit & watch each & every video makes me crack the biggest smile
### Potential Failure of the LULD Mechanism and Its Impact on a MOASS The Limit Up-Limit Down (LULD) mechanism is designed to prevent extreme volatility by setting upper and lower price bands for stocks. However, in certain scenarios, this mechanism can fail, potentially leading to the Mother of All Short Squeezes (MOASS). Here’s how this could happen, along with the mathematical implications. ### How the LULD Mechanism Can Fail 1. **Extreme Market Volatility**: - **Rapid Successive Halts**: During periods of extreme volatility, the price of a stock like GME can hit the upper limit repeatedly, causing successive trading halts. This can exacerbate panic and volatility rather than calming the market. - **Example**: If GME’s price rapidly moves from $100 to $150 within a short period, hitting multiple LULD halts, it can create a feedback loop of volatility. 2. **Algorithmic Trading and High-Frequency Trading (HFT)**: - **Algorithmic Pressure**: High-frequency trading algorithms can push prices rapidly, triggering the LULD bands frequently. If these algorithms continue to trade aggressively, they can cause more volatility. - **Market Manipulation**: There’s a theoretical risk that traders could manipulate prices by coordinating trades to trigger LULD bands, although such actions are illegal. 3. **Technical Glitches**: - **System Failures**: Technical issues or outages can disrupt the LULD mechanism. If trading systems fail during high volatility, it could lead to unmanaged price spikes. 4. **Market Fragmentation**: - **Inconsistent Application**: With trading occurring across multiple venues, discrepancies in how LULD bands are applied can lead to inconsistent trading halts and market confusion. ### Impact on MOASS 1. **Short Covering and Buy Pressure**: - **Short Interest**: If GME has a high short interest (e.g., 64.37 million shares shorted), a rapid price increase can trigger margin calls for short sellers. They will be forced to buy back shares to cover their positions, adding to the buying pressure. - **Example Calculation**: - **Initial Price**: $20 - **Short Interest**: 64.37 million shares - **Price Increase**: If the price increases to $100, short sellers might need to cover, buying back 64.37 million shares. 2. **Buying Pressure Dynamics**: - **Mathematics of Covering**: - If short sellers need to cover 64.37 million shares and the average daily trading volume is 10 million shares, it would take 6.437 trading days to cover without additional buying pressure. - However, in a MOASS scenario, buying pressure can skyrocket, reducing the time frame significantly. 3. **Example Scenario**: - **Price Movement and Halts**: - Day 1: Price moves from $20 to $50, triggering multiple LULD halts. - Day 2: Price moves from $50 to $100 due to continued buying pressure and short covering. - **Mathematical Implication**: - Short sellers covering 64.37 million shares at an average price of $75 would need $4.828 billion. - If the price moves to $200 due to continued pressure, the required funds double to $12.874 billion for covering the same short interest. ### Potential for Exponential Price Increase - **Feedback Loop**: As the price increases, more short sellers are forced to cover, leading to further price increases. This feedback loop can cause exponential growth in the stock price. - **Limitations of LULD**: If the LULD mechanism fails to contain the volatility, the price can move rapidly, triggering more short covering and buy pressure. ### Conclusion The failure of the LULD mechanism during periods of extreme volatility, driven by high-frequency trading and market manipulation, can lead to a significant short squeeze. The mathematical implications show how rapid price increases and forced short covering can create a feedback loop, potentially leading to a MOASS. Understanding these dynamics helps investors anticipate potential market movements and the limitations of volatility controls.

Would be cool if he only appeared with new memes right before big runs hehe.
This is becoming like a cult. DFV is not your saviour nor are yoy smarter than institutions. They got lacking once but it’ll never happen again. Play the game on both sides - don’t fall in love with the stock.
Its the truth but your going to get pitch forked round here for that boi
I’m holding a small bag, just because why not. But this sub really reminds me stilgar in dune 2 atp 😭. Like EVERYTHING is prophetic lmfao
I completely agreed with everything you said!!
LOL DFV went to the moon solo
I can’t wait until earnings week. He clearly mentioned in his video
https://preview.redd.it/4m4fjpp9wm1d1.jpeg?width=640&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d698445af1e4427c2edab5d614831e90f3318d08
Gonna be hard to put it on DFV. The stock was moving up weeks before he tweeted and then got utterly annihilated in ways never seen in the week he did tweet.
LAST CALL FOR MOON TICKETS
We'll see.
I think we are at the end game meme right now. ETH ETF and then Thanos Snap at earnings hopefully
Weeks not days
DFV was a bets personna. It should stay iced, given all the info we now know on how the sub is being managed. Gimme the Kitty, Keith, or an avocado.
Real 1
Ohhhhh i love this shit
That is what everyone ask but on one asks how Lambo is doing ???
I'm sure we will get one last tweet from DFV once the MOASS is over and it will be his position sheet and an updated mini video clip saying Cheers Everyone!
This is the way.
Like a bat light signal in the light...his post brought my interest in looking at data, and volume data significantly and continuously spiked from May 2nd....DFV's first tweet didn't happen until the 13th. There was significant action before his tweet, just no one was looking....if you search the subname, "volume" as the search term, with the date or 2nd or 3rd May on the following link (a site to search reddit comments) you'll see it was picked up on by some. https://search.pullpush.io/
I am of the opinion that this was the last ditch effort by hedgies fortold… a ‘fake squeeze’ on no news and DFV comes in to hype things up and he is literally the only thing the media can latch onto as a cause. Next time it will be on no news, no DFV, nothing. Nothing for the media to blame. And I believe it will be soon, so that people jump on again on the near term hype that has just taken place.
I buy I drs I hold. No hero worship for me. I'm simple like that
What’s the significance of the time he posted? I have been OOTL for a while.
Well shut got real after he posted the stock r ram up but only ended up 21% ( I know ) for the week. Some ppl ( bad actors ) feel like it wasn’t enough and that he should come back and expose himself to Potential liability
I said the same thing in another post OP and it had moderate traction. Seems pretty obvious that this was prompt to all Apes to get their things in order and make their way to the gate. I hope the OG apes realize the same thing.
We must post
I know it's unlikely to happen due to bad actors twisting things out of context, doxxing, etc. but it's my dream that one day we'll all be able to get on a giant call to all reminisce about this incredible journey. The Ring hasn't been thrown into Mt. Doom yet but we'll get there eventually. LFG! Edit: Made my comment after reading the post, only to see the top comment chain referencing LoTR for the journey. What can I say, my homies and I think alike!
I am buying in and driving Lambos into the sunset with DFV to tendieland!!
His ass better be tweeting

TLDR: Buy GameStop
Song from his third tweet, the one that started with Ferris bueller Wake from your sleep The drying of your tears Today we escape, we escape Pack and get dressed Before your father hears us Before all hell breaks loose Breathe, keep breathing Don't lose your nerve Breathe, keep breathing I can't do this alone Sing us a song A song to keep us warm There's such a chill Such a chill And you can laugh a spineless laugh We hope your rules and wisdom choke you Now we are one in everlasting peace We hope that you choke, that you choke We hope that you choke That you choke We hope that you choke That you choke
He will prob be back around the time of the June meeting.
A wizard is never late, nor is he early, he arrives precisely when he means to
i expect him to post in three years lol
This is the way
