I think that if this is true, it'll ultimately be a good thing for Bitcoin -- increase awareness, incentive more miners around the world, etc. The crash would hurt, but it would be temporary -- digital scarcity is here to stay, and network effects matter. This isn't my ideal scenario for spreading awareness, I hate to see anyone lose money, but it's better than central banks continuing to dominate the worlds' monetary systems for the rest of eternity (which isn't going to happen!)
