Shout out to to the regulatory criminals who screwed me over 1000 days ago. My conviction in my research was steadfast. Reflecting on what I missed out on the last 1000 days makes me depressed every time. I will never be able to be made whole. #MMTLP#MMAT#FinraFraud#1000days
@sing16888@SvenSve94307895 You are 100% right, I thought Bowen was saying people will buy because of the underlying principles of the company/property's are being worked on. This price isn't a normal capital raise. It's a premium for those offsides to cover their position.
Keeping the FLAME alive for #MMTLPfiasco
Seems that the mouth pieces for Wall Street are feeling the flames...
Good.
Next up, FINRA's former board member and Barack Obama's former White House counsel, Kathryn Ruemmler, along with former Clinton campaign and former SEC Chairman, Gary Gensler, ALL OF WHOM were on deck during this clear sabotage of META MATERIALS through the naked short selling of #MMTLP

"Assets will be tokenized on XRP Ledger, Stellar, Ethereum, Solana. Where Flare fits in: once those assets are issued, they need a place to be traded - with privacy."
-@HugoPhilion in his latest interview with @BitcoinNews
@gbchanssey What kind of compensation could be awarded if we followed up bankruptcy with a civil RICO lawsuit involving options losses? I was betting on the long term impact if META's tech.
The dim glow of the computer monitor illuminated his face as the clock struck midnight. On the screen, a ticker symbol flashed in a hypnotic rhythm of green and red: $MMTLP.
To the casual observer, it was just a preferred dividend placeholder stock, an obscure financial instrument tied to an oil and gas company called Meta Materials and its spin-off, Next Bridge Hydrocarbons. But to his and an army of tens of thousands of retail investors gathered across Reddit, Twitter, Facebook and YouTube, it was a financial Alamo.
The theory was simple, backed by months of obsessive research, deep-dive spreadsheets, and late-night message board threads. Short sellers had heavily bet against the stock. When Meta Materials finalized the corporate action to transition MMTLP into a private entity—Next Bridge—those short sellers would be legally trapped. Because a private company cannot easily hold short positions, the market rules dictated a forced buy-in.
The corporate action stated that trading would cease on December 12, 2022. The retail crowd calculated that the final days, December 9 and 11, would trigger the mother of all short squeezes. He had bet a significant portion of his life savings on that squeeze. He wasn't looking for a handout; he just wanted the system to work the way it was written on paper.
On the morning of December 9, 2022, He sat with his morning coffee, fingers hovering over the keyboard. The market opened. He refreshed his brokerage account.
Nothing happened.
The chart was completely flat. A cold sweat broke out across his neck. He opened Twitter, where the community was already in a state of absolute pandemonium.
The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) had stepped in. Citing an "extraordinary event" under its regulatory arsenal, FINRA executed a U3 trading halt. Trading was frozen instantly, effectively deleting the final two days of open-market trading.
For him, the world went completely silent. The trap had been set perfectly, but right before it snapped shut, the regulators had lifted the short sellers out of danger, locking the retail investors inside instead.
In the months and years that followed, the $MMTLP ticker became a ghost town of unresolved ledger entries. The shares were eventually cancelled, replaced by non-tradable, illiquid shares of Next Bridge Hydrocarbons, exactly as the corporate action dictated—but without the market ever forcing the short positions to reconcile.
He watched from the sidelines as the fallout rippled through the financial system. Letters were written to Congress. Over 50,000 angry emails bombarded the SEC. Lawsuits were filed, demanding an audited, aggregated share count to prove the existence of synthetic or "counterfeit" shares that retail investors insisted were hiding in the plumbing of Wall Street. The DTCC was dragged into court battles, fighting behind protective orders to keep its internal clearing data sealed.
To the regulators, it was a necessary intervention to protect market stability from an preordained corporate transition. To him and his community, it was proof that the house would always rewrite the rulebook if the small guys started winning.

@X22Report I've enjoyed listening for the last week or so. My only question is how does israel play into your beliefs? Thats the one part i can't figure out. Is it just quid pro quo where israel gets what they want and so do we? Im scratching my head at this one aspect.
@JeeC84 This has been my belief for a while! I really believe that the future is tokenization. Allowing people to tap in and earn yield from their own equity. Makes xrpl the secure vault. And flare the perfect partner for smart contracts and oracles. While keeping assets safe in escrow.
🪑 I sat next to @PeteSessions in front of the U.S. Capitol, believing—hoping—that this was a moment that might bring justice for 65,000+ #MMTLP investors. That photo wasn’t leadership. It was theater. A moment used to pacify a movement, not empower it.
⸻
Pete Sessions was involved in the MMTLP issue before the FINRA trading halt.
He knew the risks. He had access to the truth. And he had power.
But after the halt, instead of fighting for transparency, he brought in a so-called “expert”—a person who literally holds the patents for payment for order flow and dark pool infrastructure—to present himself as a voice of retail investors in closed-door meetings with other congressional offices.
That person didn’t speak for us.
He spoke for the system that exploited us.
And Sessions used that voice to muddy the truth.
⸻
📨 Pete signed the open letter led by Rep. Ralph Norman, joined by 74 members of Congress. He signed other letters too.
But here’s the reality:
A letter without action is a stall. A signature without oversight is theater.
There were no hearings.
No subpoenas.
No confrontation of FINRA.
Just delay—while retail investors were erased in silence.
⸻
And while MMTLP was halted abruptly, without notice…
MMAT—Meta Materials Inc.—was slowly bankrupted in plain sight.
Sessions was warned as it happened:
That MMAT was being intentionally collapsed by the same institutional players who carried synthetic liabilities in MMTLP.
He knew—and still failed to act.
⸻
💡 But what we lost in that slow-motion collapse wasn’t just money.
We lost critical innovation:
•A non-invasive glucose monitoring technology with game-changing potential for diabetes care
•A battery separator that could have made EVs safer by preventing fires
•Metamaterials-based defense applications that could have transformed optical camouflage, communications, and sensor tech
That’s not just market loss.
That’s a national security setback, and a scientific betrayal.
And Pete Sessions stood by and let it happen.
⸻
He has ties to financial criminals, including Ponzi schemer Allen Stanford.
He’s had multiple STOCK Act violations.
And he’s publicly called for dismantling the Office of Congressional Ethics, claiming it’s a “witch hunt.”
⸻
We sat at the Capitol. But only one of us came with honesty.
The other came to stall.
He didn’t protect investors.
He didn’t protect innovation.
He didn’t protect America.

@zahedmusawi I lost faith in our systems after covid. Wanted to diversify into hard assets due to rampant inflation. Now with all the job loss AI will inevitably bring. We should have been set to weather the storm. Afraid I am too late to aquire enough assets for this new future.
🚨 The banking cartel is in full panic mode. 🚨
While Americans were celebrating Mother’s Day with their families, the CEO of the American Bankers Association sent a frantic alert to every bank CEO in the country, demanding “immediate engagement” to lobby Senators and kill stablecoins that would finally let everyday Americans earn real yields on their own money.
This line in the letter sticks out: “we believe committee members may not be fully aware of the risks to the economy by the stablecoin loophole.” That’s both intellectually dishonest and simultaneously demeaning. First, there is no “loophole.” This entire issue was litigated during the GENIUS Act debate. @BillHagertyTN worked tirelessly on this issue and this statement is an insult to his and others work.
For decades, these banks have treated your deposits like their personal piggy bank, paying you next to nothing while lending YOUR money out for massive profits and executive bonuses.
During the Biden era, these same banks worked hand-in-glove with @SenWarren and her allies to debank Americans, including President Trump’s own family. They shut down accounts of conservatives, patriots, and anyone who dared challenge the regime, all while regulators applied pressure under schemes like Operation Choke Point 2.0. It wasn’t about risk. It was about political control.
Now that innovative stablecoins threaten to break their monopoly and give you actual financial freedom? They’re running to Congress again, screaming about “threats to economic growth and financial stability.”
Translation: Protect the racket at all costs.
The Senate Banking Committee votes on landmark crypto legislation this Thursday.
As a member of that committee, my message is clear:
Hands off the people’s money. Let Americans choose real competition and better returns. No more shielding Wall Street from the future. The banking elite’s days of rigging the system and debanking their political enemies are over. Innovation, freedom, and the American people will win.
I’m voting to break the cartel.
@dotkrueger Whats the solution? Tokenize all the assets, get rid of fractional reserve lending that allows the rich to get richer. Force tokenized assets to provide the liquidity for the system, tax the yield generated from those assets. Eliminate income tax for the middle class and below
