There wont be any short squeeze. It didn’t happen when the shares were trading at $2.5 when the outstanding share count was around 750M. Now with the outstanding share count doubled to 1.5B, and the shares trading at .25, it just wont happen. There were no naked shares when the share price hit $2.5 about 5 years ago to now when they added another 750M shares. But continue to BS!

Gary, the only thing I know about derivatives is down in your neck of the woods Orange County around 30 to 40 years ago, filed a bk. I knew an auditor for Placentia and then Fullerton, who had warn the cities not to make that investment. They fired him for not going along . Shortly afterwards OC belly upped.
This is the most dangerous investment anyone or company could make. OC was in a hell hole, the most conservative county in all of Califoricate.

Gary, That's my understanding as well.

On-exchange shorting is generally regulated (margin caps), so that is typically capped at a 2:1 leverage and limited by one having to have 50% of the short value as margin deposit/collateral.

Off-exchange shorting is the synthetic contract/options, so that has high/potentially unlimited leverage. The actual leverage and margin deposit is a negotiation between the client and the Market Maker, subject to less stringent regulations.
