It's going to be interesting to watch, the cat and mouse game between regulators on one side and innovative, libertarian people inventing ever-harder-to-trace and ever-harder-to-censor crypto systems.
I believe there is a learning curve involved and the crypto "battlefield" is ideological at heart. Crypto is the new revolution. I know the anarcho-capitalists behind the earliest and most successful cryptos will shudder at the comparison, but they are the new Trotsky, Lenin and others.
I bet at some point a plurality of people will realize that, on balance, the "old world" is better balanced and offers more people opportunties to live their lifes as they see fit. The "old world" will incorporate the best features of crypto but overall, the anarcho-libertarian ideology, having understood the downsides of what it dreams of, will subside.
