This fake news propogate by some people who want to crush Bitcoin just to buy it in smaller price.
It's unfortunate, there're may people in that category, especially some Wall Street guys, who cannot fathom why such a financial phenomenon have had to take off without them. It's the helpless situation they found themselves around Bitcoin that have snowballed into blackmail attempts, which every Bitcoin enthusiast should have known by now and become the wiser.
The people behind these bad news have just one aim, which is to rip off as much Bitcoin from gullible early adopters before the moon landing, which they themselves believe strongly.
