It is not a big surprise because John McAfee himself proved that he is a pathological liar and a scammer throughout his time in this space as he promoted many scams coins in the market in the past and it is a known fact that he charged $105,000 USD to promote any scam project and the countless number of investors who fell victims to his promotion. Take a look at the tokens he promoted Shivers, bezop, Simmitri, Docademic, latium, Cpollo, SAFEX and you come to a conclusion on how to trust him.

Why this person is still being discussed, as if he has a certain weight in the cryptocurrency world and can influence the market through his actions. If every cryptocurrency user already knows that McAfee is a fraudster, then it is better not to pay attention to his statements or actions. Or does he have an influence on what is happening?

Because he's famous in the tech world for starting the McAfee antivirus software in the 1990's.

Sadly, bitcoiners are desperate for famous people and gurus to endorse cryptocurrency, so when people like McAfee make claims, it's big news and plastered everywhere. Of course endorsements like his do more harm than good, but that's what comes of being dependent on celebrity endorsements.
