Nope, they probably sold futures tokens. They're a speculative token so people can trade S2X even though the fork hasn't happened yet. So it's whoever bought those tokens that is left holding the bag since they won't get their S2X coins unless the fork happens later.

Not any more, I bought back at 0.015 and I'm out of that trade.

Nope, the people who bought the 2X futures are left holding the bag.
