Imaginary situation: US Gov pushes mining offshore, it moves somewhere else including Russia. They blame miners in avoiding sanctions and approach wide ban on cryptocurrency and extraterrestrial enforcement. 

I don't think they can do much to those which are not in the US, more so to those open source projects. Good luck for them for even trying.

Aren't you believing that Bitcoin could win free competition?
And who is "we" by the way.

We celebrate when good action is taken and we do what is necessary when bad action is taken.

Likely Bitcoin is the next. No the protocol but likely ecosystem and businesses around Bitcoin.
