So now that Trump has access to Twitter again, let me explain the DD for getting Puts on his Truth Social app thru $DWAC.
Situation: -Trump has said he’s going to stick to TS. -Trump is contractually obligated to post on TS before anywhere else. -Trump announced run for White House. -Merger between Trump Media and $DWAC is still incomplete and is being investigated by prosecutors and regulators
Key question is: Will Trump go back on Twitter, dooming TS?
Why he’ll end up back on Twitter and abandon TS: -Since he’s running for office again, its going to be VERY difficult for him to resist using Twitter and reaching out to his 80m followers vs 4.5m on TS -Trump wants to shore up his base after some Republicans blame him for mediocre midterm results for their party. -Trump has only stayed on TS per obligation.
Conclusion: -As time passes, Trump will eventually give in and go back to Twitter, especially so he can get back in the media and political limelight. Thereby taking away the one thing propping $DWAC up, himself.

puts are expensive for DWAC, and there is a high risk of it mooning for some stupid reason. I agree fundamentally it's almost worthless, if the premium wasn't so high I'd be in.
