Actually, the story goes...
MIKP already has a MM (BMAS) that filed a 211, but after several months of back and forth with FINRA, Mark was told by someone @ FINRA that if he filed a Form 10, it would speed up the process. Supposedly it would be almost immediate.
A couple of posters contacted BMAS, and they corroborated the 211 filing was made.
I have a feeling they may have told Mark to file the Form 10 in order for him to hang himself.
The other possibility is that if MIKP becomes a 'registered' stock, the SEC can have more options to shut down the trading completely.
