Outside of the HN bubble, $125K is already a pretty big sum of money to get all at once, and unlikely to bring too much scrutiny, if it was somehow not a coincident. Seems like a smart strategy, if the user was sitting on inside information and didn't want to ring too many alarm bells.
However posting on reddit about it, would not be such a smart strategy. I think it's genuinely just a coincidence, WSB gets plenty of worthless "DD" posts every day that end up amounting to nothing.
