Let’s break it down. They sold 120,000 shares, which is like throwing a party and everyone’s invited. The post-sale holdings? A mere 25,076 shares. That’s a drop from 145,076-like going from a full tank to a near-empty one. But hey, they still have 360,000 options left. So, maybe they’re just getting started.

21Shares, alongside ByteTree Asset Management, has crafted this marvel with the enthusiasm of a man who’s convinced he’s discovered a new continent – only to realize it’s just a landfill.
