In theory, there's no reason why responsible gamification couldn’t teach financial literacy & encourage responsible investing. But in practice, an app drawing young, inexperienced investors into high-volume day trades & complex options is not prioritizing users' safety. 5/ — PolitiTweet.org

In his suicide note, Kearns named Robinhood, asking why how the company allowed a novice trader to get into that position. 7/ https://t.co/KTVwBVCV7o — PolitiTweet.org
