they turned the button off · the stocks kept trading anyway
- 01January 2021
A crowd on the internet buys one ticker together. The app that sold it to them turns buying off for a day. Selling stays on.
- 02The lesson
Nobody argues the mechanics any more. The part that stuck is simpler: the button belonged to somebody else.
- 03Tokenized stocks
The same tickers show up as tokens on a public chain. No closing bell, no queue, and no button that can be taken away.
- 04194 tickers, one chain
Robinhood Chain lists the whole registry. Anyone can open a pool against any of them. Most nobody has.
- 05So: the board
This sheet counts which tokenized stocks a meme has claimed and which are still open. The button is the mascot. The board is the product.

Where the numbers come from
194 tickers in the registry, 183 of them with nobody on the other side.
