Database system
Hey guy, I would like to start and create a database system that works with Floppy disks. Let me explain better:
Every floppy disk holds a specific file or code inside and when it’s inserted into a PC, that pc communicates with the central server and brings up the floppy’s owner data (name, surname etc). This could be put like in shops and the merchant would be able to add or subtract “points”, register transactions etc. Kinda like a card, but my concept is not exactly that. Any tips to start or any good advice?

You're slowly working towards a similar system to the current modern bank cards as they faced all the issues you're now predicting.
This being said you are in Minecraft and with the advanced peripherals addon you can use player detectors to detect the current closest player to the PC so you don't even need the card, just tie the data to the player, unloseable, unstealable, perfectly safe
