Despite this being absolutely impossible (they can pry my node from my cold dead hands), even if it was it would not achieve what you think it will.
Ok lets say you banned BTC. What about: BitcoinCash/BSV, Litecoin, Ether, Monero, Zcash.... and lets say you ban all classes of software that mint coins using Proof of Work (because Proof of stake is much easier to subvert), SuperSecretUntracableCoin will take its place.
Basically, any fool that is saying dumb stuff like "Ban Bitcoin" is living in an authoritarian dream. It is not possible. It should not be possible. Bitcoin was precisely invented to prevent such authoritarians from getting their way. Get out of here!
