So I have a real question and would appreciate serious at least

Paper Wallet.

> How can anyone invest a great amount of their wealth into the stock market if a meteor or godzilla would wipe it completely out?

Also, there are paper BTC wallets, voltage regulators. If a solar flare is big enough to kill your drive, losing bitcoins is the least of your problems as you should probably be worrying for an apocalyptic scenario and living like a caveman for a while.

Do you actually think all banks are safe from an event this scale? All it takes is one copy of the blockchain to be unaffected. You could actually argue that a blockchain would actually be more effective in a scenario like that. There are many more copies of the blockchain than there are database backups for any given bank.

You know this would / should be a real concern for big time miners, not so much losing their coins but necking all their hardware. I'd imagine they'd have a reasonable level of safeguards in place.

As for an event wiping out all machines worldwide? Golders might think they're covered, but I'd be loading up on pointy sticks.

lol uh huh solar flares. member india? yeah the PM kinda just waved his hand and all of a sudden all high denom rupees are declared worthless. the threat improves from a single dude waving his hand to .. solar flares. fiat is junk. secondly, a solar flare wouldn't necesarily destroy all blockchain data which is by design copied on thousands of nodes with probably more in backups
