Not a perfect subset. You're forgetting people buying drugs on dark net markets. Bitcoin got big because of the Silk Road. Drug use doesn't lean left or right as much as it leans fringe (though certain drugs do, e.g. LSD on the left and meth on the right.) Given everything Bitcoin's been and continues to be used for (drugs, ransomware, investment, remittance across borders) I don't think it'll get significantly more tarnished by association with insurrectionaries.
