its hilarious that you think these are regular shorters. These are the noteholders. They get all their shares at 58% discount to the lowest traded price, so 58% of 2c is their conversion price currently. With volume increasing they shorting by convertible noteholders will accelerate. This will again be sub penny standing soon enough.
I’ve watched this close enough to know that, it’s not been shorted. It has simply dropped, slowly, but surely. There might be a chance for a flip or two, but I don’t believe there is near enough trust, for this to stay above a penny long term. AJMO
