It will be impossible to regulate on and off globally. Yes banning mainstream access will drop demand and access to crypto currencies temporarily but long run the government currencies are in a losing battle. Improved scaling solutions, micropayments, and privacy upgrades are all coming soon. Bitcoin already processes more reliably and with greater transactions than Fedwire.
See, you seem to think what is required is a 100% shut off. If the US government could kill 70% of access within its borders tomorrow, the technology would not have a bright future.
