I think you are seriously overestimating it's worth in relationship with the rest of the world. Don't be so dramatic , it wouldn't be as apocalyptic as you describe it and it wouldn't ruin such an endless amount of lives. And even if it would, it would still not concern me , mining is something you do voluntary.
Whats next , feeling sad for those who are slinging dope ? You know , that "market" is worth billions too and I am sure that in the event of something , many lives would be ruined as well.

I agree, it's pretty frustrating, but there's no silver bullet, unfortunately.
At least you can be joyous that large, faceless, corporations AMD and NVIDIA are both making a killing on selling graphics cards...
you're allowed to be anything, but what you just said means you dont deserve it (no literal offense, but it's alarming)This whole thing just bugs me because I am, by nature, a depressing, negative person with catastrophic thinking styles. I like to buy GPUs quite often, in fact in some communities I'm known to change GPUs more often than underwear (Which isn't true, I change underwear once a day, GPUs more often every 2-3 months). This is because I'm a fickle, unstable sort-of-a-fangirl to whatever company produces the components in my PC at the time of writing.
I'm allowed to be annoyed. When GeForce 20 series comes out, they had better be in stock long enough for me to get 2070 or something. >:|

It doesn't go "poof," it either gets transferred or lost. Also, tell that to all the companies that folded during previous bubbles that burst. Not exactly extraordinary.I think you are heavily underestimating what 500 billion dollars going poof from the economy just purely out of the coins themselves does. Not to mention the business aspect of this. That is rent that is gone, untold millions of KW/h of electricity, equipment purchasing etc.

I'm not convinced the market cap of crypto currencies is real. The actual assets backing crypto is likely hugely less. What could happen is someone (probably "Satoshi Nakamoto") withdraws all the real money backing BTC at exchanges and BTC becomes insolvent. Without an infusion of cash to return solvency, BTC's dead.
If BTC collapses, altcoins likely will too. The only ones that might survive are those like tcoin which are regulated and have physical assets backing it (assuming they can afford to actually enforce their own rules).

If I had to guess who "Satoshi Nakamoto" is, I'd guess it is a made up name for a group of Goldman Sachs employees. Inventing financial instruments as new avenues of profit is what they do best.
Activity on exchanges, probably, but those exchanges have limits on what they can handle because of it's illiquid nature (exhibit A: Mt. Gox).

That's proof of illiquidity. The same thing can happen to huge withdraws at small bank branches: they simply don't have enough cash on hand to withdraw the full amount. The difference is that the branch can request a shipment of cash from their federal reserve and that cash will eventually be made available to you.Try coinbase. Here, let me help: They occasionally have transaction delays when a lot of buyers cash out at once.
