It is obvious because they just brought this down below .04 over the past few weeks, do you really think they are going to willingly let this run right now? Could be a massive short squeeze if we had the fire power, but it doesn't look that way.
Remember MAGA, the OTC has a major issue with naked shorting, and I tend to lean towards that as whats happened here over the last few weeks. Put up the phantom shares/walls on the ASK and drive the price down, since there is no retail interest or support. This is why the quick reaction today to the news. How long can it continue? Who knows.
