No one has any proof here, but we have a really really interesting coincidence. Bter and vcx both go down nearly simultaneously, then for around 6 hours PXC goes up by a factor of 3 on the one remaining exchange, then collapses back to its original price and bter comes back online after the collapse is over. It doesn't take a genius to conclude someone was attempting a market manipulation around PXC, who we have no idea and no one should be throwing accusations at specific parties, the only way to figure this out would be to examine who was bidding up PXC on cryptsy.
P.S. I predict vcx will be back up very shortly

If you followed the PXC thread you'd know why... They made an announcement of a PXC service release coming out tomorrow. Thus, everyone who read it started stocking up, and those that did even said on the thread that they were buying. Being that the price is low and the volume is low, those people buying quickly made the price rise and anyone following just the graph might've bought in as well thinking it was a pump.
