That's... A big deal?

Yeah, well, basically they stop you from cashing out, which means your crypto-holdings are worth zero to you, whatever their market value.
It is a big deal if you're only speculating and need to cash out. But if you can buy goods and services informally in these currencies, or use tools like stablecoins to speculate on network, it's really nothing to worry about.
