All the magstripes on my credit cards, library card, etc survived magstripes for over 2 years now. Tho I guess I wouldn't know if a card got wiped recently since I've been using contactless+biometric payments for almost the same length of time in the US. I've had paper magstripes (Paris metro tickets) wiped by magsafe so it's technically possible if the magstripe is extremely cheap/weak. IIRC metros are phasing out paper tickets for this reason
