Why not go all the way and establish your own publicly owned central bank and establish an alternative to the dollar?

Oh, yeah, the US will send the CIA or the military in and take you out and make you take on IMF debt to ensure your future compliance.

Clearly, there are limits to what tech alone can accomplish.

You mean like the EU central bank and the Euro? That's already been in place for 20+ years in the majority of EU countries.

Like Cory says, the USA is now carrying out its threats regardless of what you do or don't do, so there's no need to care about them any more. There's nothing a country can do to influence whether the USA invades it or not, so it might as well do what it wants instead of what the USA wants.
