I have to say crypto seems much easier to solve than bad politics. If you'll grant this, your argument hinges on crypto being useless under an oppressive government, because it will be controlled. I find this implausible given that no government in history has ever really succeeded in fully controlling black markets. Indeed, the trend is that the more dysfunctional the government, the more power the black markets have.
