The fanboy framing essentially requires you to believe that seven independent insiders — including the CEO's own brother — are all simultaneously making a terrible financial decision by selling a stock that's about to 10x, while voluntarily paying maximum taxes to do so. The alternative explanation — that they know what's coming and they're getting out — requires no mental gymnastics at all.
