You still need to secure your private keys and never lose them. Encrypted cloud storage is a good backup in addition to your home setup.

You don't store BTC on drives. You store your private keys. Your BTC is on the blockchain.

If that ever happened, your meme coins disappearing would be the least of your worries.

Ok first of all the entire country is in complete chaos. It isn't just crypto but the entire financial system that goes offline, also supply chain disruption means that grocery stores run out of stock and everyone starts killing each other.

Assuming you dont get killed by raiders, your crypto is safer than your bank account anyway since the blockchain is backed up world wide.

How would that disrupt a blockchain? I'm a brainlet, but isn't all the data verified through a global network? So the fact that miners and coin owners exist all over the word, those blocks are still being updated elsewhere. If you stored your coins on exchanges, things would be ok right? Maybe if you stored your coins locally on metamask or something it'd be a different story?

bitcoin was designed for a scenario like this
