Bitcoin falls below $300, lowest in 11 months
For the Fed to collapse the value of bitcoins they would have to sell lots of bitcoins. They can't do that because they don't have bitcoins to sell. The can print USD but not bitcoins.

If the Federal Reserve can print USD, and USD can buy Bitcoins... am I missing something?

Yeah they can buy them but that won't make their price fall.
