Oh, I don't believe this  Angry
Is it really true?

it was a mistake by microsoft, they have apologized for this https://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/microsoft-apologizes-bitcoin-still-accepted/

yes they apologized for that,but it allready created a panic that made price lower by 20$

but anyway that wouldn't be horrible thing as sites like purse.io still would work, also i heard that steam have plans to add bitcoin to their payment ways, so price should rise little bit because of that

It looks to me like it had minimal effect on price. (Price rose by $5 in the wake of the MS "announcement" and the near-immediate retraction). I'm not seeing any movement larger than $8 in the past four days, either.

I dont think so that their will be so affect on the market if Microsoft is accepting or not bitcoins as payment, because most of them still dont know about bitcoin.  if you are saying that when the news came and the market crashed for $20 and now after their anouncement then the market should react more and should bounce back more $20 but it not happened so that crash and now gaining is not the affect by this news.
