In this particular case it is more likely that the other side has a high percentage of oligarchs who have had plenty of time and ability to divest to crypto and other assets outside of government control. Most of the people on the street wouldn't even know where to start. So welcome to the other side, same as this side, same as it ever was.
You are misreading my response. It was because HN is known to be anti-crypto. So I meant 'welcome to the pro crypto side'.
And to your response, maybe instead disallowing all people crypto, let's make it easier for everyone. Times like this make it more clear than ever that crypto is not just a "solution looking for a problem".
