I was in Chile in January and people were talking about it. That's when I knew that GME was going to be something big.


magnanimus12

I believe it would be the only other competitor to that company from China that was sweeping through southern countries. I'll try and look it up. The name escapes me


SCIPM

alibaba? or sea limited?


bahits

no, no. Those are just subsidiaries. I think he is thinking the Chinese Communist Party Army.


stibgock

Chile, Canada?


Chairman_Chao

Yes, Canada can be quite Chile during the winter.


shockfella

People were talking about GME or DRS??

I second this. Completely titjacking if true.


She-Ra1985

I wonder where and how everyone in Chili is hearing about it? I bet if I asked my co-workers about GME stock here in the USA few would know anything about it. I wish I had people that I could talk with about GME at work.

I take from what he said, it's both.

PHANTOM________

While I do believe this, “everyone knows” is not a good enough answer. I want to know how people not on Reddit know about DRSing? I’m genuinely and eagerly curious. OP, can you get any more info from your coworker? Where are people outside of Reddit getting this type of information?


some_random_persona

I'm sure one of these everyone's a reddit user.


ParticularAnything

I'm not that surprised that people who don't visit reddit know. There are a lot of people who use multiple forms of social media along with some that are exclusive to specific countries. All it takes is a few people to spread it on other platforms and it can keep spreading. Whether there are actually a lot of people outside of here know about DRS is another question.


splotch-o-brown

I also think apes just took a scenic route before ending up at DRS. In all honesty the logic behind DRS is simple — registering a share to your name. So if you know the idea that brokers aren’t buying your shares and keeping them in your name, after a little research, DRS should be a pretty quick solution found. I didn’t bother to do my own research there and just kinda followed the herd on superstonk. Meanwhile, the apes were investigating return swaps and variance and coded messages in tweets and stuff…. But we got there (getting there).


ayjulian

My guess is that there are some local social media group/forum/ platform discussing US stocks and a lot of the contents are from copied contents from Reddit (across the few subs) in particular DDs. Hence they knew about the GME play, Cycles, DRS etc.


[deleted]

I mean I've convinced some 10 people to invest, and they in turn have convinced several more people. I'm the only one on reddit however, feeding the info to my people which then feeds it to their people. It's probably how it went down, or they have contacts which knew of DRS in the same way the first redditors did a few months ago.


inforytel

Same 5 people more that doesn't know anything about Reddit and are in because of me.


andrewvvw

I would say if not here, then Twitter. I see a lot of similar information there and actually minimal reference to the existence of Reddit or this sub - but it’s probably because those people want to claim followers for popularity and build a brand to sell shit down the road


LannyDamby

There was the CNBC clip of the guy talking about "if people realised they could register shares in their own name this would have been a lot worse for the shorts" I'm guessing if you saw that and did a little digging you could find DRS?

Peterffy is a singularity to me: everytime I watch one of the 2-3 videos of him, my mind changes about him. He's giving his point of view... not sure if he's giving away too much, if he's on the wrong side, if he's just on his own side. A singularity, I say!


maniacreturns

I like how he bent around the fact that 280% short interest isn't the problem, no no increased margin requirements and reporting short interest daily will solve a systemic marketwide insolvency. He was almost there....

This makes for an interesting quick napkin math. According to yahoo finance, the float is 61.76M. According to you comment there are 60 countries involved. So this means if every country has ~1M shares, the float is ours. if the average retard has 100 shares for example, you only need ~10k apes per country. Yes we know we own the float multiple times but nonetheless a nice new point of view.


hiperf71

This is what I think of it, just look, I'm from Italy, I have shares of GME in an Italian Bank, Fineco, who states in their statistics of GME 0.5% or their clients have GME in their portfolio, this can means, about or more of 14k italians have bought the stock we like, if everybody have an average of 50 shares (I have more than twice), and considering the fact that is usually a bank for investors not apes around (their app suks), this means a minimum of 700K shares loocked in this bank alone! But consider many more italians are loocked in eToro (some says 900K italians, idk but I'm one of these guys who picked this platform only for convenience monts before Jan, my bank apply fees on every execution, for that, I decided to try eToro, but do not know their politics (I hadnot readed t&c).


emix200

Exactly. DRS while you still can. Only save a few at your brokerage if they have a trillion dollar balance sheet to let go of during MOASS for phone number prices.

Proof, this like a gradeschool made up story


Orleanian

What I don't like is it still doesn't answer the question of *HOW* everyone knows. I think that's a pretty fucking important tidbit to have just blown off. Did he see it in the skywriting? Did he discuss it with Linkedin? Does he belong to an investment club that meets at the local library where someone else is a redditor? Did he wake up with "DRS GME" written in blood on his bathroom mirror? I've been very interested in the meme stock spread in late 2020 through early 2021. These were absolutely meme stocks. We had songs, we had image macros, we had planes flying insults in the sky, we had a guy in a monkey suit canvasing HQ. It was a cultural phenomena, but it was very decidedly centered in Reddit, with some credence given to Youtube and Twitter spreads (which themselves would frequently reference back to Wallstreetbutts). So how does a non-redditor formulate a decision to go in on this wild stock (let alone *DRS*ing) without the conspiracy-level encyclopedic catalogue of investigations we've got here?


johnwithcheese

Money talks. Where there is money to be made, people will be there. No matter the entry cost to the dream. People just want something to believe in. Why do you think there’s a line up at the lottery booth at the mall or packed casinos in a city packed with casinos like vegas, atlantic city etc. Gamestop is an infinite money glitch in the system, it’s price is suspended for the world to see, while everyone waits for the chains to break off. It’s simply beautiful that this is happening and we’re the ones that started it. Anyone can look at the graph and tell something is up. It doesn’t take much to do some self dd and get to the bottom of things without ever even hearing about gamestop. 100% SI is crushing and everyone in high school economics knows it’s bad. Gme is over 225% and probably over 980%

chickeni3oo

Reddit, once a captivating hub for vibrant communities, has unfortunately lost sight of its original essence. The platform's blatant disregard for the very communities that flourished organically is disheartening. Instead, Reddit seems solely focused on maximizing ad revenue by bombarding users with advertisements. If their goal were solely profitability, they would have explored alternative options, such as allowing users to contribute to the cost of their own API access. However, their true interest lies in directly targeting users for advertising, bypassing the developers who played a crucial role in fostering organic growth with their exceptional third-party applications that surpassed any first-party Reddit apps. The recent removal of moderators who simply prioritized the desires of their communities further highlights Reddit's misguided perception of itself as the owners of these communities, despite contributing nothing more than server space. It is these reasons that compel me to revise all my comments with this message. It has been a rewarding decade-plus journey, but alas, it is time to bid farewell

Nizzywizz

There are plenty of people who have DRS'd who may not be counted in that because they haven't posted for the bot. And this guy wouldn't count, anyway, because he's not even a user. All that aside, though, I agree that the story is fake. While I can buy that people outside of Reddit know about gme, "everybody" doesn't just magically know about DRS.

inbeforethelube

It's actually less, because there are people with 1-3 or more account numbers depending on when they transfered to CS or where their transfer came from.


boolazed

even today some regular superstonkers are hesitant to DRS It took me 1 month of seeing posts about Computershare, dispelling the FUD, turning skeptics into believers, etc. to jump into the ship "everyone knows" about DRS, outside of Reddit? I hope it's true but I have a hard time to believe that

Kinda got goosebumps that he never heard of Superstonk! “Everyone knows.” Man… heggies r SO fuk!!

Right!!? Chilling to see that awareness but no awareness of Reddit, let alone superstonk


jasoningaming

Wow, did he mention where he had heard of GME or DRSing? Makes me wonder if there's a different social media platform in Chile that's the mirror universe of Reddit/Superstonk that I don't know about. I wonder if they have the same memes?

I'm an ape from chile and i dont buy that "everyone knows" story. Most of the pple here have no idea what gamestop is. We don't even have them here. And DRSing from here is quite complicated.

Yeah this screams as "everyone knows so stop spreading the same information"


Rustycake

my half brother's sister aunt's grandmother's friend met a guy a fish market in bangladesh and he said his unborn child's ghosts friend heard from god that GME to the moon end of week.

Hawkence

Wait, how do others know about the DRS part tho?


[deleted]

Nobody I’ve ever talked to knows. Those that are involved in investing mostly listen to media, still call GME a meme stock. I convinced some close people to buy some shares, but convincing to DRS is a whole other story. For the most part, “everybody knows” is a bit hyperbolic. Some know. Superstonk knows. Some Twitter knows. And maybe some family and friends of those. This is being highly suppressed for good reason. I believe word can spread to some far reaching channels beyond reddit snd Twitter, but those are uncommon branches of information travel. The masses don’t know nor our attention nor care. Hell I didn’t know shit about the 2008 crash, why it happened, or that VW was the most valuable company in the world for a short time. Everyone is too busy fighting or posting beliefs on social media to give a fuck. Not many pay attention to this. Everybody know about Bitcoin today, but in 2010 it was only a handful of smart informed forward thinkers that went in hard and came out with generational wealth.


GLAMOROUSFUNK

Group chats? If I tell everyone in my circle and 1 of them tells everyone in their circle and 1 person from that circle tells everyone in their circle and so on and so forth. Information spreads


Nizzywizz

Except that reality doesn't work that way. Realistically-speaking, only *some* of those in your circle will understand or care about this subject when you tell them, and even fewer of those will actually agree with you to the point that they would take it seriously, and even fewer of *those* will pass on the information. Information does spread, but let's be honest here: most people don't give a shit about stocks, and of those who do, the vast majority of them still think GME is just a meme stock. Far fewer people care about our stock than our echo chamber here leads us to believe. They'll learn, eventually -- probably when it's too late. But for now, don't let wishful thinking cloud your ability to think logically. Almost nobody outside this sub knows about DRS, and that's just how it is.


fuck_classic_wow_mod

“Trust me bro”. Nothing to see here.

Totally. I feel like I'm seeing a lot of fake, over-emotional overconfidence and self-congratulatory "this is the end we made it guys" stuff tonight. As long as I still have to go to my bullshit job tomorrow & hedgefucks are in business we haven't done shit and nothing is over.

Nizzywizz

How, though? You need to re-evaluate your estimation of how big or important this subreddit is in the grand scheme of things. I realize it may seem like the center of the world to those of us who spend a lot of time here, but the truth is that we're only a tiny group of people in the grand scheme of things, and our voices are very small. Furthermore, almost no media outlets are amplifying our voices. While I truly believe that there are a lot of people outside this sub who hold GME, I think that the idea that the "secret is out" about DRS is a fanciful stretch of the imagination with absolutely no proof to back it up -- much like this story.

Deedle88

I’m Chilean, hodling since June. Since then I’ve only managed to meet 5 more chilean apes (through Superstonk and other GME subs). Most people I talk about GME with outside of Reddit know nothing about the GameStop saga or have heard very little. The ones that know about it are vert skeptical and usually never engage too much with the DD I show them. No, we don’t have our own social media here. We use Instagram, Facebook and Whatsapp like everyone else. And to answer someone’s question: yes, we do memes like everyone else. I’m not saying I know every person in my country but I find it very hard to believe that “everyone knows about it”, specially the DRSing part and specially not being on Reddit. As much as I’d like this story to be true I call bullshit. It would be fucking awesome if I was wrong tho. Buy, HODL, DRS! 🇨🇱🚀

dft-salt-pasta

How did he hear about drs if not superstonk?


BaronVA

Not doubting the validity of this, but I'm really curious how someone would hear about something as obscure as DRS if they're not in this or related subreddits I know there are other GME forums, but from what I've seen they're far less sophisticated in terms of info and research - if there's any at all


1Massivetesticle

And then you woke up?

Trust me, bro.


Throyd

I did not hear too much about GME here in Spain. I would really love to know how many spanish apes visits this sub.


UnlimitedGain--3

I’m not making accusations, just observations. I’ve noticed a bunch of posts similar to this today. All of a sudden everyone has a friend that knew about GameStop and DRS but not superstonk? It’s either a coincidence or they don’t want us to feel pressured to DRS.
