You think the govt can make certain words illegal, can regulate how much water you use to flush the toilet, but can’t make crypto illegal?

New law:
2022 Spring: a mass shooting event happens. Turns out the shooter was paid to kill people with Bitcoin.
2022 Summer: Media runs 24/7 stories about murderers and drug dealers using cryptocurrency to circumvent the law
2022 Fall: Congress passes a law to ban all cryptocurrency with minimum years long jail sentence for anyone caught possessing Bitcoin and even heavier fines for trading it.
2022 winter: President creates a new executive agency dedicated only to cracking down on cryptocurrency. A few strategic people are targeted and very publicly arrested and thrown in federal prison.
