crypto can easily fork with new hashing algorithm. a day's worth of transactions might be lost, if at all. conspiracy much? also, it takes only 160-bit to find a collision. the big agencies are probably capable of cracking one of those, still might be a few good billions worth. and regarding the economy - people don't sleep in NFTs. a crypto crashing only means active investors lose cash, mostly corporate and government, not enough to trigger a domino effect. sorry.
