Seriously though, this is predictive programming from the west to lay the groundwork for governments to shut down the internet and blame it on something else. They bitch and fuckin moan about 'authoritarian' governments around the world shutting down the internet as a civil rights violation and keep this little plan in their back pocket, ready to go at a moments notice.

It would likely fry power transformers and take down the grid for at least 18 months while that infrastructure could be replaced. Small devices would likely survive unharmed, but would not have grid power.
During this time a huge number of people would die of starvation due to the absense of power needed for food processing. What little food is processed cannot be transported due to the absense of power needed for fuel processing. Medicine manufacture shuts down. anyone needing it dies. It would be catastrophic.
I'm not sure whether this would only affect one side of the planet. I think it's possible that it gets the whole thing.
To answer your question it would definitely shut down crypto. I don't know if crypto can simply be restarted. It's been continuously mined since the beginning. What happens if there's an 18 month gap?

Your best asset would be books, bullets and seeds (also a compass, sundial and thermometer would give you a technological edge in the new stone age which is why I unironically burried those items in a jar in my backyard). A micronova Carrington event that fries all electronics would set telephone wires on fire. (Most houses on the planet are hooked to the grid, so we'd see world wide fires that have never been seen) 99% of the population wouldn't survive that. And then surviving afterwards when we have to start from stone and bronze age technology again.

Actually, buying an antique steam powered tractor might be a good investment. That is unless it melts from the electric currents durring the micronova. Anything metal could become a hazard.

Christ, you guys are fucking retards. No, a CME will not send us to a dark age. It will only affect the power grid and large computers because they act like giant antennas for a current to blow them out. It would take at most a year for the entire grid to get back up and running at full capacity again.
A faraday cage would be more than enough protection for your crypto wallet until your local grid is up and running again.
