adam aron telling "the claman countdown", quote, we're, give or take, 90 days away from also accepting dogecoin. and e also told me, quote, we're also trying to figure out how to accept sheba enu. he definitively tells me amc is now working on a way to actually accept it. this is a significant development because amc would become the highest market cap company in the u.s. to accept not only dogecoin, but sheba enu. aron had tweeted overnight, we proudly accept, drum roll, please, ethereum, litecoin, but he hadn't given that 90-day timeline for doge. give or take 90 days is what he is telling us at "the claman countdown." after hitting a record high on wednesday, bitcoin and the rest of the majors are all in the red, 63,886. we are watching doge very closely which at 2 p.m. was down about 2% to 25 cents, and right now we're looking at sheba at the moment. 2 p.m. eastern it was down 4%, it is down 5% at the moment. but as this news works its way through the markets and through the tape, we will be watching both of those coins very closely. now, breaking this afternoon, the sec outright r

what is adam aron say about this, have you had any contact with him about this? wedbush a pal of mine introduced me too adam aron, here's his e-mail and phone number, i only sent him five e-mails back and forth and he said he would think about it. then when the fire drill which was last week adam aron sent me an e-mail and said he wants me too stand down he does not want me contacting him and that's that. >> does it go away, the plan? >> i think the plan could be used for anybody. i think the plan is a great plan and i think it's a great idea. the only thing a ticket in the last week is abuse personally but no one has said anything about the plan. >> is part of the game when it's involved with amc. liz: putting forth this kind of token is not necessarily illegal. the security flaws require that you have a legitimate business purpose and you created a record whether on twitter or podcast that your business effort is to kill the short-sellers. that's not an illegitimate business focus to watch something like this. are you opening up amc to litigation if you were to

charlie: maybe he buys corn from adam aron. liz: popcorn.pcorn, it could be something like that in any event he's behind the ape movement and he's come up with a plan which he says and he's been discussing this its been online and people have been sending me snip-its of it, that is designed to squeeze out all the shorts that are in stock. now we should point out the stock is not necessarily heavily shorted because of a short interest used to have like 100%. liz: the apes chased them away. charlie: it did and the apes keep saying there's dark pool money and all of this man up lan in manipulation, you had bees come up with this plan by having the rest of the company, and it's unclear if the company can do that and i'll get to this in a minute, issue what's known as a security token as a dividend and if you do that -- liz: a digital dividend? charlie: yeah, so there's 518 million shares outstanding, every share gets this dividend, and somehow, i don't quite understand how it works, but apparently, that's going to force the shorts to cover their

think, guarantee that we survive through this pandemic >> that was part of my interview with amc ceo adam aron on youtube on our youtube channel at youtube.com slash cnbc and at cnbc.com amc making headlines jumping 5% after theater admissions in october was the highest since february of 2020 amc is up more than 1600% this year the 5% gain today adding to it karen, quite a story and you were taking a look at the bonds today. the bonds maybe tell the entire story of the roller coaster ride that adam was talking about. >> right well they were managed to roll out their bond there is one that was most active today it matures in 25 or 26. it was in the lower 20s maybe at the depth of despair and it is -- now it is just about par which is kind of an amazing thing. although at par it is still 11.5% yield. so there is some concern but that's kind of extraordinary that he was able to do that and i mean, i just think that every turn he was masterful. i'm interested to see what else he had to say to you, mel, particularly the episode with the lack of pants. >> he was wearing pants during the interview th

. >> he wants to set the record straight, correction there was a banner that said they met with adam aron, he has not met with them, he has provided him in this is going to be really interesting story in the next couple of weeks particularly if they go through this, it's going to be a fab on the story on the 23rd period he is traveling as it is to get back on the 23rd he wants to talk to uni about this. he wanted to moderate. here's what you we know where will read this headline. he told me that he e-mailed aaron a plan to issue a securities token as a dividend on amc stock. if you issue the token it could have an inherent value. the token will trade on patrick burns t0 platform that was founded by patrick burns. the former ceo of overstock. the purpose is to put in nft with value into the hands of amc shareholder here is the secondary added feature which is fascinating. he believes in the debate once and for all over whether amc is subject to make a shorting. if you have this dividend and you lent out the shares, the people that you rent out the shares to hold shares that are owned by so

my question, do you think adam aron or the sec are investigating this?f an investigation found naked shorts what would be the consequences, trey? >> there is great example of a stock adir. they recently found naked short circulating of their own float of 30 million shares. the ceo came out publicly, look we found this, dig into this. we'll see what happens. with amc specifically what they need is incriminating evidence. they can't play a game of guessing this or that. it needs to be we found this evidence. i think the first place to look is in derivatives and options because that is where heavy, heavy leveraging takes place. where market makers and liquidity providers hide nefarious activities that take place. i hope the sec is looking into that but i guess time will tell. charles: what is interesting, years ago a ceo brought this up, many were too intimidated to say anything. one of the first guys was overstock. he got branded being a nut. he was vainly forced out of the company. i always felt he was completely right. they were pushing back on the knows
