I don't know which country has the most energy but that's likely the answer to that question. The United States has a good shot depending on whether the politicians try to mess up our industry or not.

if you were a politician in the US and your task was to mess up Bitcoin, what is the most effective way you could do that?

The 3 letter regulatory agencies are more of an attack vector than elected politicians. Most of the battles are going to be fought in courts instead of voting.
Force everyone to KYC when buying mining hardware would be a big one.
The EIA survey that recently got paused was a good one.
Going after the pools to KYC customers is another huge one.
I'm kind of afraid to say a whole lot because I don't want to give anyone ideas but it's very important to be thinking adversarially right now.
