    I was looking at this a while back, and I don't think insiders can sell for a while yet, but I think this really has been a gift to short sellers.

    In the end, I didn't end up buying into the IPO because it seemed overpriced, and while I do like the idea of some of the business (Starlink) I don't understand why it's got to come with a fucking social network of all things.

    I don't think we should accept those people's money anymore - what are these billions, trillions, gazillions, schmoozillions even supposed to be. I'm happy to trade in sea shells or your kiddo's drawings with you instead if you have an honest face!

    Correction: Lost a trillion in speculative value. There's a difference

    And people want to tax this speculative value.

    Any time you attempt to convert it into a usable asset, including using it as collateral or citing it as an asset for loans or investment capital solicitation, it should be taxed. Once someone accepts its value in exchange for something, it's no longer speculative.

    its just absolutely crazy to buy shares in a company where special super shares where made to make sure anyone buying shares could never own or control the company.

    Not really. I've never been to a shareholder meeting and never will. I buy stocks to turn a profit from dividends and appreciation not to get a chance to micromanage the company.

    I made 29% within a week shorting SpaceX already, should I hodl or sell my position at some point? Do we think it'll ever recover?

    We're talking about a business led by the richest person in the world who has already made it entirely clear he can buy his way to anything he desires. 30% is a tidy sum, I'd lock it in and call it a day.

    Lockups start expiring next month. They've still only floated less than 5% of the company! Buckle up buttercup.
