what are you talking about? the real fraud and market manipulation was perpetrated by Robinhood and Shitadel when they shut peoples’ ability to buy the stock while still allowing it to be sold. They know this is illegal but they were betting on the fines being less than the losses. They need to be taught a real lesson. Those responsible for this intentional, flagrant violation of the most basic free market principles should go.to.jail.
If anything Robinhood allowing people to continue buying volatile assets while not being able to meet their clearing house's requirements would be something to run them afoul of the SEC.
