Any shares you plan to hold for a longtime (i.e. until ~2027 when warrants can be exercised) are best held at transfer agent in "book". This prevents them from being lended out or borrowed against without your permission.
While held in a brokerage they are "custodial ownership" which means you do not actually own them, they are only held "for your benefit" and the brokerage can lend them out as they wish, usually to Hedge Funds which are borrowing them and then selling them short to push the price down.
