They haven’t sold anything they’ve been diluted.

A company can dilute just like that?

  • Of course. Public companies do this too. Where do you think the stocks awards that they give to employees come from?

    They come from just printing more shares every quarter, diluting every shareholder.

    • I was told stock to employees are left aside shares, or they sell the stock the company owns if they already went public.

      I'm not convinced what you believe is true. Dilution is possible undoubtedly, but perhaps if majority shareholders approve it. And even then, likely regulated by a suite or other constraints.
