What if everyone would transfer their PayPal credit to a regular bank account on the same day? Would that bring Paypal value down?

hard to estimate, but probably not. I think what makes such companies go down is when the investors fear their money might be lost. that is, when the company is not worth much compared to their invested money.

So only, when the user count is dropping, that would be the case for paypal.
