Complete speculation but...
I believe that Craig Wright signed a very large monetary deal with some investors after giving them the impression that he was Satoshi and that he could not release his BTC until 2020.
Whatever deal this is, he is desperate to get as many bitcoins as he can before then. He tried to make BCH the "real bitcoin" but that didn't work...so now just make up some fear about Segwit the he will "reveal in 2019" to drive down the price so he can get as many coins as possible to fulfill his part of the deal. Looks like he needs the price to drop to around $1k to be able to pull that off. Not going to happen.
There is no FUD on segwit, the threat is real. Perhaps do some reading on the subject? TL;DR plz?

.... umm, there's going to be bad days, there's going to be dark days, but you gotta embrace it, because that pain is what makes you stronger.... success is not measured on the days the sun shines and your coins are mooning.....success is measured on the dark, stormy, cloudy days, and if you can't absorb failure, you're never gonna make it. Constantly I'll hear, you bought bitcoin on the top, LOL, you hold only shitcoins, you're gonna get REKT, LOL. It gets to you man, after a while. And people will say, oh, but it's easy money $$, just buy low and sell high. Well, the thing about that is, if it was that easy, everybody would be rich........ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M7cvzMjAWjsThanks V8.

There is no FUD on segwit, the threat is real. Perhaps do some reading on the subject? Think. If segwit has a fatal flaw then how has bitcoin survived for a year? It has a 100B jackpot for the first person to crack it. Even if they could only get 1/2 a % they'd be set for life. Where's the hack?

If a malicious actor were to gain control of 51%+ of the network hash power, he could change the network rules, rescind segwit, and take all the coins that were in segwit addresses. Of course, there's a significant chance no one would use the compromised network except the attacker, which would make the whole thing moot.

SV Cash catching up fast to ABC Cash Thank god that I don't currently have any skin in that game. I wonder what happened. Did Ver run out of the resources he was willing to spend on this pissing contest?

Looks like Craig stopped redirecting hash power from his mining pool to BCH and sent it back to BTC.
SV will pump. ABC will drop.
Roger will bring the hash power back to ABC.
ABC will pump. SV will drop.
Rinse. Repeat. Pump. Dump.

Difficult state, moment of doubt. Yet, bitcoin can elicit passionate smearing from TPTB. Bullish. Mmm bullish didn’t read that word much the passed days

Where's the hack?
The flaw is that the incompetent side has an inferiority complex; they are unable to produce anything remotely beneficial thus they have to FUD Bitcoin. If a malicious actor were to gain control of 51%+ of the network hash power, he could change the network rules, rescind segwit, and take all the coins that were in segwit addresses.
Of course, there's a significant chance no one would use the compromised network except the attacker, which would make the whole thing moot.
At which point they chain would diverge, and they'd create Bitcoin No-Segwit. Non issue.
If you're unstable and desperate to gain recognition for non-existing contributions, no wonder you'd be envious of this man.
