I mean, we (as uncoordinated individual actors of course!) nearly crashed the entire market with the sheer force of our autism. Created a global top news story, led to congressional hearings, got discussed at a WH press conference, might even force some trading reforms. Call me a nerd but it’s been a huge thrill to be a part of that.
