If these incentives didn't exist, this revolution in the finance industry would've never occurred. ]]> 2021-02-05 13:10:38 UTC https://padlet.com/nlynch47/8ltw8ury65e3fkf5/wish/1168035858 Matt https://padlet.com/nlynch47/8ltw8ury65e3fkf5/wish/1168036637 2021-02-05 13:10:50 UTC https://padlet.com/nlynch47/8ltw8ury65e3fkf5/wish/1168036637 Monty https://padlet.com/nlynch47/8ltw8ury65e3fkf5/wish/1168036673 2021-02-05 13:10:51 UTC https://padlet.com/nlynch47/8ltw8ury65e3fkf5/wish/1168036673 Noah https://padlet.com/nlynch47/8ltw8ury65e3fkf5/wish/1168036860 2021-02-05 13:10:54 UTC https://padlet.com/nlynch47/8ltw8ury65e3fkf5/wish/1168036860 Max https://padlet.com/nlynch47/8ltw8ury65e3fkf5/wish/1168037605 I definitely think that Incentives played the biggest role here, Redditors were incentivized to do this to become famous, they were incentivized by each other to "Hold it to the moon", they were incentivized to take down Goliath, and they were incentivized to do this to have a sense of nostalgia
