Is there *IN THEIORY* any possibility to make BGP secure enough now?

Yes, RPKI protects from fat fingered people, but NOT protects from
people doing hijacks knowlingly.

The global routing registry really can be the solution, but it
automatically gives one authority a power to cut off any network.
Imagine how fast it will be used for censorship.
