I feel like this is becoming more and more possible each day. I have seen Russia need bitcoin at some point when the war started, while they are acting as if all is alright, they know that they may need it. This means that China may want to do some shady stuff too, either with Taiwan as expected, or maybe with India, in the end they may want to start a war. No country in the world becomes that big and doesn't go into war, all of USA nad europe constantly sends soldiers somewhere, maybe not right now but they did as recent as Afghanistan and Iraq, so I believe China got way too big, and may want to test their power. At that point everyone will block transactions with them, and crypto will help their citizens a lot.
