Data suggests Avalanche’s (AVAX) rally was a buy the rumor, sell the news event

cointelegraph.com:

Avalanche (AVAX) came into the spotlight early at the beginning of 2023 by adding its blockchain support to Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud.

However, empirical and on-chain analysis suggests that Avalanche’s price surge is likely due to a broader cryptocurrency market pump which will likely end with the rest of the market.While integration with the world’s largest blockchain service is a positive step for Avalanche, the hype around its implications might be exaggerated.

The evidence lies in a similar move that Avalanche’s team made in December 2022.Avalanche’s team established a deal with Alibaba’s Cloud toward the end of 2022.

The Asia-based cloud service commands a 6% share of the sector globally. Nevertheless, the blockchain’s validator count has remained consistent, implying that not many users of Alibaba Cloud are willing to run an Avalanche node.AWS earns revenue from users willing to use blockchain nodes, which is probably why it keeps adding support for various blockchains.
