When you think about it, it's the exact same game theory dynamic that guarantees Bitcoin will prevail in the long arc. Adoption cost is lower the more broadly a software system is supported. There's more engineers who can help you set up Bitcoin for any purpose than any other single platform.
In the same way as Zuck kicks his opponents asses by adopting the enemy's tools and open sourcing them, countries that ban Bitcoin will be attacked by other countries PROMOTING it. The end result is inevitable. What can't be banned must eventually become normal.
