It's wild how the exact same scam runs in both markets:
- In Crypto ( $$DOGE / $$BTC): You buy on eToro or a custodial app. They credit your screen with a number, internalize the flow, and lend out the pool to short the price.
- In Stocks ( $$GME): You buy on an IOU broker. They credit your screen with a beneficiary claim, route your order to a dark pool, and let market makers use the street-name pool for synthetic shorts.
The solution is identical in both worlds: withdraw your $$DOGE to a self-custody wallet, and register your $$GME in Computershare (DRS Book) via Interactive Brokers (IBKR).
