it will remain. But once china figures out another efficient way to push money out of the chinese economy, it will plummet in value. The current value of bitcoin is almost entirely from chinese capital flight.

Perhaps. Or perhaps people will find another use for it. It did already plummet and recover several times.
I think those cycles will drift lower and lower. Bitcoin has existed with any REAL competition. Once the banks pick some standard, a lot of the value of bitcoin will be lost.
The real crisis will come in the next months/years. People will buy Bitcoin then.
Which would be, frankly, quite stupid a thing to do. If the telco networks fail in the crisis will Bitcoin even exist? Will you be able to exchange it?
If you're afraid of a crisis you should buy sugar, salt and spices. These will go up the most if the worldwide trade collapses.
