Well that's always going to be a slight threat to decentralised digital currencies - certain countries are going to prevent this globalisation by starting their own.

With the amount of work that states are able to put into a currency, there can be a currency with a relatively similar system to Bitcoin except with addresses directly representing an individual and certain parts of the coin being controlled mainly by the governments.  It can bring the same convenience to the masses without being properly decentralised.
