> Arrest and charge people who purchase, sell or even possess Bitcoin Can you imagine the amount of resources required to accomplish this? The war on drugs was a massive failure and that was arguably a much easier sell than crypto.

Supply might, but demand will not be effected much. There will also be exchanges hosted in other countries that can be easily accessed. Crypto is made to be resilient and/or hard to trace. The normal avenues of tracking and enforcement (which already can be pretty ineffective) cannot compete. You can act like it's "fairly simple" but, as I have stated, it's been tried and continues to fail.
