Well I guess the question is, if the US govt (or any other superpower) felt it was in their interest to take over / destroy the blockchain, would they be able to? It seems to me if Bitcoin got to be of huge strategic importance to global finance, countries like the US would start to build out that power. The idea that the economy of say the US was at the mercy of other foreign governments would probably not sit well. This applies to all large powers just using the US as an example.
