This fake news propogate by some people who want to crush Bitcoin just to buy it in smaller price.
Yes I believe you are right. This could be an inside job, those greedy investors spreading fake news just to cause panic selling to the new investors out there. But even though with all this price drop, I will never lose faith in bitcoin at all.
Yes there some investors whose being so greedy they want the other investors to be afraid of losing their chance of earning big. Thats why they were spreading fake news that causing panic other so they can buy in a low value so they were the one who will have a huge capital.
