Unfortunately banal or not it really worked. I understand that these type of news making the headlines and causing the price to go up is a horrible thing for all of us, however at the very least we are talking about something that is bringing some life into crypto and that is not something we should let go that easily.
I personally like it when the price is not dropping, and this is came in exactly at that time, price was falling like crazy and we ended up with the news and the price started to skyrocket, I am not going to be upset over something that I have zero control over that helped me, I would be maybe upset if it dropped the price even more, but since I can't control it in that case as well I wouldn't really get upset about it neither, not like I caused anything, so why should I care? I am not selling neither so it should not really bother me.
I don't believe in rumors that are not clear and people say it should be seen, maybe people who don't have assets in cryptocurrencies. so it's only natural for him to make a rumor that is not clear, because he has nothing to lose and he's just looking to gain from the other side,
it's good not to be easily influenced by rumors like that, then panic sells together. I was angry to see that.
