Half the point of a cryptocurrency is the network effect - so I don't see how your argument holds, at all.

It is not clear at all that a small political experiment will scale to a super power. It is equally unclear that a small crypto currency experiment will scale.

This is without even touching on how easy, or difficult to it is rally support for a new system. Quite difficult, I'd say.

It holds because you can demonstrate its utility on a small network.
