I feel like we are slowly getting to the situation the Three Stooges were in where they all owe each other money. Bots make the numbers go up which gets investors interested giving money to the company. C levels make money which they invest in other companies who's numbers are boosted by bots and this cycle begins again.

You owe me $20. Here's $10, I'll owe you. But you owe me $20. Here' $10 I'll owe you. Here's the $10 I owe you. And here's the $10 I owe you.
