Why buy this 1 oz Silver Antiqued 2021 Blockchain Mint WallStreetBets Round?
In January of 2021, a reddit group of retail investors known as WallStreetBets captured headlines around the world with a push for a short squeeze on GameStop (GME). Conventional investors had thought GameStop down for the count following the rise of online gaming and complications from the Covid-19 pandemic and the value of a share fell to $18.84 at the end of 2020. Retail investors, many who were members of WSB, driven by nostalgia, social media, and "liking the stock," flocked to GME in early 2021. The flurry of short selling triggered a short squeeze with GME shares reaching a high of $483 on January 28th, a 400% increase in stock value in just one week.

Striking WallStBets Logo Design

Below him is the "WALL ST" street sign with the word "BETS" imposed over it as if with spray paint. The subreddit tag, "/R/WALLSTREETBETS," is also included at the bottom, while the group's motto, "BUY HIGH SELL HIGH," is inscribed at the top.
Reverse: On the reverse are a rocketship, which represents taking stock "to the moon," as well as a diamond hovering above open hands, representing those with "Diamond Hands." Stock symbols of companies discussed in the online forum are inscribed along the rim in the upper left, including “$GME (GameStop)," "$BB (Blackberry)," "$AMC (AMC Theatres)," "$NOK (Nokia)," "$BBBY (Bed Bath &Beyond)."
