I don't think governments will succeed because of the decentralized and censorship-resistant nature of crypto/Blockchain tech. Regulations can only be enforced on centralized exchanges and centralized wallet providers. Anything that's not centralized would be out of a single government's jurisdiction.
government cannot control bitcoin (the technology) just like they cant tell a bottle of wine to stop being swallowed.
however governments can regulate PEOPLE. and laws apply to people. because people can be punished and people can read the law.
(bitcoin(and wine) has no brain or eyes. it cant read paper laws. it cant be punished. but people can
governments can regulate businesses(run by people). and create laws obided by people.
people can try to evade the law. but at risk of punishment if found. and governments can find ways to find people (like how silk road creator was found even with things like tor, proxies)
