Oh, of course, you are in Italy!!!

Best advice is to make sure you know where the Embassy or Consulate is and possibly let them know where you are. They have been instructed to put together contingency plans for Bank failures and civil unrest. They will be best placed to advise.

Italy is not a poor country and operates a very healthy black economy so there is probably quite a lot of undeclared paper money sloshing around under matresses etc. So a few ATM failures will not cause too much trouble.

What will happen when all the paper money becomes worthless - I don't know. Perhaps stocking up on tradeable goods might be a good idea.
