When my government bans ownership of Bitcoin, in all honesty.

I don't think it's too likely for me. I'm in the UK, and our gov's treatment of Bitcoin so far has been somewhere down the middle. Nothing openly hostile, but small things here and there like banning Bitcoin ATMs and Bitcoin financial products in tax sheltered accounts.

I kind of view each country's response to covid as a yardstick for how they might behave during a financial meltdown. The UK was fairly hands off throughout the whole episode. Meanwhile, I have family and friends in Italy who I'm more concerned for.
