LOL, NO
You set conditions on your addresses. You receive Bitcoin from adress A to your adress B - if there is a covenant on it (how can be spend) it is set by you.
What if the government only allows you to use BTC that are "compliant", and for them to be that way they have to be at an address with a covenant that limits how you can move your utxo, those limits are not set by you. It's just a possibility... But without a doubt, anything that limits or restricts your ability to move your utxos freely must be considered with great caution. In any case I am not against it, I would simply like to understand all the implications that this would have.
