Paper and hardware wallets?
Meshnets.
They could storm the halls of power, if they felt like it.
Meshnets, if we could secure them from hostile actors with state level powers, would work.

I don't think that will matter if the overlords that own the internet decline to allow us to use it to exchange crypto. However, when we make our own internet and quit shoveling money at them for using theirs, that will matter a whole helluva lot, and go a long ways towards ending that worshipfulness that comes of being dependent on masters for our very survival and every good and holy thing.
The truth is that they're dependent on us for their wealth and power they parasitize from our productive work. When we quit feeding them, they'll go away, and that's exactly what we need for them to do.
