If all crypto coins that are POW fail as I type this the world will get over it and not give a fuck about it in a few years.
The industry wealth is small in comparison to the world's wealth
Note I said all POW coins meaning someone cracks all the algorithms.
I make the assumption that is a possibility.
Lol, I do agree with you but I think it will take different periods for different people. I mean there are few groups that would not care at all even today, like they will continue to ignore it like they are doing right now, there are group of people who will be a bit upset about it now, but will grow out of it in few months at most, and there are groups that will have to take maybe a whole year to recover from it but get back on their feet, and there are lesser extend people who will take a few years to recover and have trouble during that period but eventually will find a way.
At the end of the day there are only just a few people like me who would never be able to recover, not just because of financial situation because I am sure I will have maybe a year financially terrible but I will probably find a job, and just live a normal life, however I can never forget the past 5-6 years in crypto, not until I die, I will keep talking about it with people who are like me on online forums, probably here
