A country can outlaw cryptocurrencies from their country, but the rest of the world won't simply follow suit.
With countries like Japan or Korea embracing cryptocurrencies, it's unrealistic to think they'll become "RPG play money".

I could imagine, on the other hand, freeloader countries like the Cayman Islands adding cryptos as a supported way of stashing away money. Thus, they could become a gateway between the legit economy and the crypto economy in the same way that they are already a gateway between the legit economy and money raked in by tax evaders, drug lords, and dictators. Thing is, the crypto part doesn't really add any value to their offering. And the real question with respect to Cayman Islands etc. is why we don't simply outlaw bank transfers back and forth from these places.
