These issues are all interconnected. But I am mostly concerned with code sabotage and institutional reliability (bitcoin Devs and Ops and the servers they maintain are the institutions). From this everything else is derived. If less people trust bitcoin then the purchasing power drops. This can be done through code sabotage and influencers amplifying FUD and other bollocks (like monkey jpegs on the blockchain).
Politics play their own game and politicians are experienced with this. Up until bitcoin the state and the military industrial complex was concerned with defending our property. With bitcoin we put our eggs in another basket. They lose the grip of their power. But they still have the guns, bombs and kompromat.
