States work on the basis of a class of power sharing 'middle men's. See for example the feudal system with its earls and barons and knights under a king. When a class of middle men are thrown out, as is happening now under Trump, that is a point of change and potential fragility in a state, even if the moment of fragility passes and a new set of middlemen are established.
To relate what is happening in the USA now to a *technological* system, like Bitcoin, is erroneous. They are 2 different things, one technological, the other political. Bitcoin is apolitical .
