> ban trade of proof of work cryptocurrencies.

I'm a crypto-skeptic, but why would I ever hold a crpytocurrency in that scenario? If governments would ban it for environmental goals, they'll ban it for political goals, too.

The only interesting bit is cryptocurrencies would have to legitimately bring something new to the table that's actually better than the existing financial system in order to be viable.
