With digital goods/currencies, you just need to compromise their software. It's actually a lot easier, logistically, to confiscate bitcoin from 10% of your population than to confiscate cash from the same. How hard and for how long do you think Apple/Microsoft/Google could resist a legal mandate to block/confiscate bitcoin passing through the computer/phone OS that you use?

FB used a fun technique to get into the Vietnamese market. They got enough users onboarded that the government had no choice but to let people use their apps or face a huge amount of backlash for denying people access.
