Apparently someone did purchase 12k shares right after the joke post. It may or may not have been related. The fact is I'm not coming here for entertainment purposes. This is serious shit and any FUD, trollbox, bickering or joke posts can seriously affect this delicate and fickle market.
It can only affect this "delicate and fickle market" because some people are stupid enough to base their investment decision on what some random guy says in a public forum.
Don't just believe what random people are saying without some critical thinking. And that doesn't just go for bitcoin, that goes for life.
I give that "fake news" a lol. And if someone indeed bought 12k shares because of it, that's another lol.
