 What does Bitcoin have to do with the two?  
 If you have to move away from a nanny state you can do so with access to Bitcoins regardless if they know or not - no need to worry about singular currency collapse or banking authoritarianism. 
 If they block exchanges, you will need a lot of fiat to move  
 Then don't keep your Bitcoin on an exchange and issue a hardware wallet instead. There's an adage by a Bitcoin guru called Andreas Antonopolous that goes "not your keys, not your coins", which is saying self custody is the most secure method to hold your Bitcoin.

 if you have to move to another country, how will you get your money? you priba ly need your bitcoin to moce in the first place. and you cant. just use a atm or exchange in another country,  you need to setup immigration  
 Be prepared ahead of time. Get Panama citizenship  
 When you separate money from state - the state has less power to control, manipulate, and steal from you. 

When you choose a decentralized, uncensorable, unconfiscatable, permissionless, inclusive, neutral money that is ruled by rules not rulers, you won’t be as easily manipulated like they will be doing even MORE of when #cbdcs are launched after a “cyberattack” from an “enemy”. 
 we dont live in that world yet and the state can ruin bitcoin with stupid legislation that destroys exchanges
