If I'm understanding (i might not be) this is why it feels like fraud/not following fiduciary responsibility to their clearing partners.

Does citadel clear their own trades? I could be off here, but what I'm asking is getting at like if they are on all the sides of the transaction as market maker, participating or allow others to participate in 'betting', and clearing the trades themselves? Does a trade even need to clear if it's just moving internally changing col A owner ID from 1234 to 9999?
