I guess its a wait and see how the next 12 hours unfolds in that case. As i can't seem to find anything about a pending news release.
BTS closely follows BTC, and i think with BCC gaining support there will be a last minute rush to buy BTC in order to get the free BCC (similar to what happens with Byteball each airdrop).
This will see a spike in BTC and in turn a spike in BTS. So there will be an increase from that, but i don't think that's what was meant when talk of 3x due to news.
Watching.
