It is a catastrophe, but not as big of one as it is made out to be. It doesn't help that TEPCO hasn't handled the situation properly, IMO.

The public has a hard time understanding the science behind these type of things, so it is easy to work people into hysterics.

Ask the average person how many people died from Chernobyl, and in general, their answer will differ drastically from the actual number.

Granted, you don't want meltdowns to occur. But this isn't going to cause "mass casualties of aquatic life in nearly every ocean and hazardous levels of background radiation along Pacific coastlines or worse."

How does Bitcoin respond, you ask? It doesn't, they are not related.

Not many people know that some people still live in chernobyl too  Shocked (besides technicians)

I'm always grumpy in the morning.
Lol.

Sticking to the Japan theme though, Bitcoin is much more likely to respond to Abenomics than to Fukushima. Japan's economy is about to go all Greece on us in the not-too-distant future.

We´re eating that radiated fishes for 2 years now. So what, World is fucked up already. Best solution for the nature would be to kill us all and then the nature would have enough time to clean all the dirt by time.

i was wondering why my spicy salmon tasted a little nuclear.

in defi we trust
The official gov't position of Japan and the US is that the rise in radiation levels in the Pacific and background radiation on Pacific coastlines is nothing to be alarmed about.  I am skeptical of this, but I am not well-versed enough in nuclear physics to form a solid opinion on the subject.  The reality is probably somewhere between the conspiracy theory websites and the gov't position.  My question is this:  Let's assume we've got a serious environmental catastrophe on our hands here.  Mass casualties of aquatic life in nearly every ocean and hazardous levels of background radiation along Pacific coastlines or worse.  Tokyo threatened.  Impact orders of magnitude beyond the Deepwater incident.  How does Bitcoin respond?
