I could be wrong, but I think you’re missing the real point here. Wall Street firms are in the business of influencing markets to their favor. When I see Jamie Dimon or MS slamming bitcoin, I assume they’re also readying a big buy in case their statements move the price a little bit lower. That kind of arbitrage is not illegal in bitcoin world (yet). I don’t think you should parse these kinds of statements in earnest. In fact, I think they indicate the opposite of what they say on their face.
