I don't get how Robinhood can make this move. I see this move as a lose/lose. Anyone care to emphasize with them? Maybe they see themselves as saving the lay investor? But then from a price action perspective, - If GME goes up, pe

How bad is this? Seems like they have offline mode. Do their customers know how to use this? What's the chance for increased fraudulent swipes?

Feels like their old cultural values offers a glimpse into why they've had problems: - Ready, Aim, Fire. - Everyone's shit stinks. - Do it yourself. Anyone able to elaborate more on what each of these mean?
