RE:Hut volume and momentum One thing that comes to my mind is Fidelity. They control upwards of 10 million shares with a target of $1.80. Probably own even more by now.
If they are sitting on those shares that could thwart liquidity.
Don't know if Riot or Mara (both with about only 50 million shares outstanding) have institutional buy in or not, because their outstanding shares are half of Hut. They don't seem to have trouble moving millions of shares in a trading day.
