I don't buy it for the simple reason that bitcoin's utility is relatively unrelated to its 'share price' (for lack of a better word. I can move money on the network whether one btc is worth $1 or $1,000,000. If the US government wants it gone, then they should be undermining it in an operational sense, not sabotaging its price, which is what this seems to be. Occam's razor does not point at the government here, I'm afraid.

Edit: I readily admit that China have shown themselves to be amateurish enough in the last half year that I might not put this past them.
