There is plenty of non-backdoored cryptography to use. It’s just the US forces various entities to use their backdoored crypto in order to get grants and government contracts and regulatory approvals.
For example, Satoshi Nakamoto chose a very interesting, lightly used elliptic curve secp256k1 for Bitcoin because for various reasons he was very confident it wasn’t backdoored, and obviously it has stood the test of time https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Secp256k1 https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Secp256k1
