This is a balanced argument from a technical perspective from the youtube user "Crypto Investor"

In my opinion, it seems like there is a group of people trying to take advantage of the sick and injured bitcoin. Not sure how will bitcoin go further after this. But i have a feeling some people with big power wants to make a scare now and scare everyone to sell off and then either earn gains on their new coin with a pump and dump.

Heres another video from ivan on tech, explaining about the hash rates profitability and one comment from Charlie Lee highlighting that bitcoin cash is not does not even have segwit (bch uses Asicboost) (at 11minutes in the video) which btc or litecoin has

alright so what is segwit? segwit means Segregated Witness

About SegWit

source: www.investopedia.com/terms/s/segwit-segregated-witness.asp

DEFINITION of 'SegWit (Segregated Witness)'

SegWit is the process by which the block size limit on a blockchain is increased by removing signature data from Bitcoin transactions. When certain parts of a transaction are removed, this frees up space or capacity to add more transactions to the chain.

Segregate means to separate, and Witnesses are the transaction signatures. Hence, Segregated Witness in short, means to separate transaction signatures.

The concept of SegWit was formulated by Dr. Pieter Wuille.

About ASIC:

"An application-specific integrated circuit (abbreviated as ASIC) is an integrated circuit (IC) customized for a particular use, rather than intended for general-purpose use. In Bitcoin mining hardware, ASICs were the next step of development after CPUs, GPUs and FPGAs"
