I think the plan is to put us in a corner then suffocate us. (economically speaking)

I see this unfold as follow :

• End of cash.
  Most of people bought the fraudulent idea : "cash is dirty", so it will be soon here and now most of transaction are electronic (one way or another) and you got a strange look when you pay in cash.
• Mandatory use of Government controlled Crypto.
• End of encrypted communication.
  Through / war on terror / big brother is watching you / bullshit, or super powerful computing.
• Anonimized crypto (Monero likes) ban.
  Because without encrypted tunnel, Monero traffic could be identified, then it is just a matter of disabling such traffic on main routers of the network.

Somewhere in this plan is the permanent link of your digital account to your body.

As to the solution I see tree paths :

• A new crypto able to mimic / hide into / authorized traffic.
• Fake id. (which will require at some point, good contact into the administration to make these fakes id, and medical / bio-engineering skill to link the shit to you…)
• Make a big enough group of total secessionist, and grow your own economy.

Non is perfect, non is guarantee, non is safe.
Thus being said not sure of the timeline all this could take time.
