This is too far from reality at least it never crossed my mind. The biggest scenario might be an Internet connection dies, but what kind of thing that makes the internet worldwide dies? even if the Internet dies (which I don't think will happen soon) some people still have bitcoin where they keep them offline (paper wallet, USB, etc) so it will not disappear. As long as people keep their private key safe especially in an offline wallet then it will exist.

What will happen if crypto vanishes overnight or due to some or the other reason if crypto becomes inaccessible to public? I know this does not make sense as crypto will not vanish but still what if it happens? What about those huge chunk of investments made by whales and other investors?
As you said, cryptos will not vanish but like you said as well, what if it happens? Then everything will be worthless. Whales who have large amount of crypto investments will lose their money, people who sees crypto as a way of earning will lose their hope and everything that uses/accepts cryptos will lose their faith in it. Everything will be useless, but of course it will only happen if internet or electricity will be cut off worldwide which is impossible.

if it is indeed not accessible worldwide, the asset will be completely useless. Large scenarios can occur if a war embargo occurs that causes heavy infrastructure damage, or something that has another major impact. If it disappears for a while and finally returns, there will be many speculative shocks, but the ecosystem will gradually recover the situation.

Well, if that happen I'll be sad of course because crypto sustain my needs for how many years now but I don't think I'll be worrying much. I ain't like those big company or individuals that invested a lot of money that could affect their living if ever crypto vanishes. Good thing, this kind of situation won't going to happen as many are adopting the blockchain technology as time pass by. Only negative thinker will think of the idea that someday crypto will vanished.

This market may collapse in different ways, but for me it is not feasible and it is impossible to die unexpectedly. In addition, this market may die but the internet will never die, the most important internet in the world and it helps the world to move forward nonstop. I still haven't found a practical reason for this market and the internet to die, except for the apocalypse

I still haven't found a practical reason for this market and the internet to die, except for the apocalypse there is no other reason if crypto will disappear suddenly other than the simultaneous loss of internet connection globally, but that will not happen if there really isn't anything that can destroy the internet just like doomsday. in fact more and more people who use the internet are able to encourage scientists to create something new about internet connections, therefore it is impossible for the crypto market to simply disappear without a compelling reason that makes sense

No, it makes sense at some point because some countries may ban it, for example India plans to ban bitcoin but I believe they'll change their mind, it's not beneficial in any way. The reason bitcoin can be vanished is following: It is used for money laundering and illegal activities, so if governments decide to ban it, they'll stick with this reason. But you know what will happen? Bitcoin may vanish but there will be something better and safer than bitcoin for such things and it will be 100x hard for them to detect and vanish so at least in near future they won't make any moves to my mind and so we can say that it doesn't make sense to vanish crypto. Btw it's still good thing to discuss, like when I read others' opinions. Criminals, at least the smart ones, will not use bitcoin for their crimes since they know they can be tracked, now most of them are using coins like Dash or Monero to hide their activities, and those are the coins the authorities are really watching since they know they are unstoppable, but even if at some point most governments ban cryptocurrencies it is arguable if this will make their price to go down, if anything this could make them even more valuable as it happens with all the good which are made illegal.

Thinking rationally, it is not possible but yet let's assume it happens. There is no way we could avoid it if it happens anyways because cryptocurrencies being decentralized gives us no way to track those and also there is no centralized party authorized behind the cryptocurrencies. The movement cryptocurrencies vanishes, each big whale would loose every single penny which would never be returned. This is always a risk being with cryptocurrencies but we, who trust cryptocurrencies know if would never happen because cryptocurrencies have already taken huge space on the internet and also a lot of major firms have adopted bitcoins and cryptocurrencies.

It will really be a bad experience for us that we might get upset and depressed, if bitcoin suddenly vanishes because there are some people who stores a lot of money in crypto, and put a lot of time working in crypto just to earn money, that is why a lot of people will get affected if crypto will be gone.

Will this ever happen? this is because this same question can equally be put this way. What if there is no more internet again? will this ever happen? my answer is NO but if eventually happens all the investors and people who are holding crypto currency inform of their wealth will all lose their money and they will have no option other than to start a new investment. basically the probability of this happening is 0%. however, people, today use crypto like money, and it's very difficult to see it disappear overnight. Even though it needs some obstacles, and others, but even like that, crypto is still quite difficult to disappear. only one thing makes this possible, namely the loss of the internet, people will certainly panic, but the internet will always be there, even today many people depend on the internet. From that question of OP I have got an idea to my mind that in some countries the internet is from a specific country so if in that country from where they get the internet any issue take place because of which their internet connection is disrupted then the internet can be stopped to the countries. In that case they will lose access to their crypto currencies but will get access again when it is provided again or the connection got from any other country. In my countries sometimes the connection line is disconnected but we have mobile internet which do not let us disconnect from internet that facility now do not let anyone to disconnect from internet in all around the world.

What do you think about those people are they going to allow this things to happen? for sure big businessman are already inside this market so influenced will be use in order for this kind of things to happen. Crypto already being recognized in most known nations there are already numbers of people who are engaged to this business so the chance of keeping to progress is much higher than being vanished. Yes, there is already a lot of people involved in the cryptocurrency era and even the billionaires and millionaires are jumping into the market because of the opportunity that they saw. I also agree that there is a high chance for cryptocurrency to stay than to disappear because the projects that are being created through blockchain are getting more and it is a healthy sign of a progressing movement.

It would certainly be unpleasant for many people, for many it could also mean the end of life.. A substitute for what could happen are examples of the collapse of exchanges. Perhaps the most famous example is Mt.gox. A lot of people lost a lot of money then. At that time, much less people was interested in Bitcoin. Now, for sure, the consequences would be much worse.

Now, for sure, the consequences would be much worse That's the whole point When Mt.Gox collapsed, Bitcoin was just a toy. Back in the day it was like a casino as no one could expect or even hope how things were going to turn out in some 5 years. I'm almost certain that losing their coins was not a big deal for the majority of people then as these coins didn't cost them much anyway, if anything at all. I lost 1.5 BTC while gambling in 2014 (or early 2015), and I couldn't care less. Losing that much would be a catastrophe for me now that one bitcoin is worth almost 10k (and probably will be worth much more in a couple of months)

Stock market will flactuate crazily because the investors and traders from crypto will shift to market based platform. Another thing that might happen is that banks will be overhelmed since there are expected huge volume of crypto investors who will now decide to just keep their money at banks because they don't have any plan yet regarding where should they put their money. Lastly, traders will either decided to go for forex or stock exchange which isn't a big deal for them since whatever they learned in crypto trading can be applied there.

I also expect that people won't ever meet their funds if crypto vanishes. That will cause even crazier fluctuation of stock market

At that time, the rich will have to find another low-level job and many will have to commit suicide due to trust in crypto. and it's hard to imagine a scenario where more than $ 200 billion is out of the world, there will certainly be a financial crisis again. because not only ordinary people like us are trading coins but also financial institutions, banks and even some central banks like in Venezuela. Therefore, the fall will bring a lot of negative things to the whole world. That is really doubtful, a market of 200 billion may sound like a lot for people like us but when it comes to the economy that is not really a lot of money, this market is still very small and the only ones that will be greatly affected by it will be people like us, even if we are not holding a lot of bitcoin that bitcoin is probably a significant part of our portfolios, and even if the whales will lose a lot more money than us many of them have cashed out part of their bitcoin and they will be fine if the market of cryptocurrencies crashed.

We wont be here talking about it because the whole internet will be down when that happens.. Otherwise How.? Just think of a way how crypto may vanish in a night..? If there is internet then crypto will be. Its not easy to kill crypto in a month or a year if thats what you meant, because to even find out and stop the projects and companies, it will take more than a year.

For example, the gold market is said to be over 7 trillion dollars, but if everyone decided to sell their gold and liquidate, they wouldn't be able to get even half of that money But with cryptocurrencies it is way worse than that, so I'm not sure you would be able to get even 20 billion dollars out of this market if all crypto were to be sold out completely. The point is, there is little to no real use in cryptocurrencies (unlike gold) which would prop up the prices at a certain level, so when everyone sells out, the price goes to zero

that's just wishful thinking, but that might happen to crypto because what they need is blockchain technology for adoption, not crypto itself.
