While I do think you are most likely correct, I don't think it means that it isn't a possibility. It may not be a strong possibility, but it still is one. To be honest, if the US and Donald Trump made it illegal to own or transact in bitcoin tomorrow, it would do a ton of damage, not kill it of course, but it would crash the price to levels not seen in years... and all it would take is a couple other big countries doing the same and bitcoin would be relegated to the underground as a niche currency probably never again reaching the valuations it's currently trading at today.
