Not necessarily, many receiving cash payments would never go back to BTC after getting burnt by the whole thing.

True. still, some will, the ones who do will push price up.
Also, if you go see the mtgox subreddit. you will see there are still a lot of bitcoiners there.
Is the (re)inflow enough to move the needle against bot trading? That's the question. I don't know many of the specifics of the case.
Like are they getting paid the value of their BTC at the collapse time? I assume they'll get a portion of what they had there in USD terms, not what it'd be worth today, so that wouldn't be so much against the current volume of bot trading.
Of course, some will buy back in, some others won't. The anecdotal data may suggest there's a lot of bitcoiners active in their socials, but that's in part because those who will just take the money and be happy they got something back, are probably not around those groups anymore.
I might be wrong. As I said, I haven't been following the case closely, but I wouldn't hold my breath.
