You don’t call that a “Jupiter-sized black hole”. Jupiter is a lighter than that.
You call that an intermediate-mass black hole.
Perhaps bigger news is that in 2017, a claimed intermediate mass black hole vanished. “In 2017, it was announced that a black hole of a few thousand solar masses may be located in the globular cluster 47 Tucanae. This was based on the accelerations and distributions of pulsars in the cluster. However, later analysis of an updated and more complete data set on these pulsars finds no evidence for this.”

Maybe they mean size not mass of Jupiter

Black holes are never referred to by the diameter of their event horizon.

What if black holes do vanish?
Do they collapse down further?
or do they become the fabric of space itself?

No but it wouldn’t make sense if it was the mass

Or punch a hole though space time and reappear somewhere else

A multiverse based on gravity?

Perhaps, I assume though you can’t break the universe even with intense gravity
What would be interesting would be if a black hole accumulates so much mass it starts of another big bang (localised ?)

I wonder if they did do that would they explode in the new space/time or change into another form?

Explode in another space time as a big bang?
