I found the second half of the article more interesting than the 6102 discussion. The ETFization of bitcoin. Banning self custody does seem to be the bigger threat.

If you mean: how could they enforce it, then they couldn't, generally.
The effects of an unenforceable ban are to create a culture of fear through occasional, high-profile, and usually extreme enforcement. I assume that such a ban, in this case, would go hand in hand with laws regulating contact w/ exchanges and banks, as you mention.

Agreed, although I really liked the historical context wrt FDR a lot, too. Made me think a little differently, which I always appreciate.
