There have been PTK posts on reddit before. I think the problem will still be the overhang and the lack of shorting. The only chance would be with the possibility of attracting the WallStBets (/wsb) crowd - and this would likely require being listed on other exchanges. We'd also need a name to be dropped, any of the big names would surely do it if it were posted in the same social media blitzes. I would love to see a juicy short squeeze and make some shorters sweat but I don't think it's in the cards at this time.
No need to wince, people who use that site have money just like everyone else (and lots of it depending on what sub you're in). It's also one of the top sites on the internet.
