the first futures contracts expired yesterday and people who may have taken short positions would've been on the hook if bitcoin kept going up. Sell their bitcoin for profits while simultaneously lowering the price to make money off their short positions. Just a theory, but one I have seen floated around

Agreed, just a bunch of FUD
