increased Institutional Interest as the latest tally of Institutional Ownership per Fintel is 32.7 million shares (excluding the Vanguard double-up, and excluding the rows showing Puts or Calls), the last reported total was about 26 million, also take note of the analysis Xena provided here,

Strategy, IMO, was for some institutions to buy shares and loan them to shorts in order to manipulate the stock. Both stockholders and institutions knew the company was closing in on commercialization so stockholders wouldn't sell cheap and institutions were desperate to get a toehold.

It shows that institutions had to pay dearly for that first 1.5 million and participated in the run up.
The chart shows a surge of BUYING - not SELLING.
