I expect this will damage the flooring.
It'll scratch the shit out of anything you put on top of it, too. Or in the little cubby holes.
Do your night stands like dance around and shit? If so they may be too close to your bed homie. Looks like it’s against the wall, and there is approximately 240 lbs of cinder blocks. I think it’s fine as long as you set them down and pick them up gently.
Depending on the quality of that vinyl flooring, it could cause permanent depressions. That's 50 lbs of cement versus a couple pounds for a wood nightstand.
There is also a risk with spills which would be drawn under the blocks and cause moisture to be trapped.
I would be far less concerned if there was carpet involved.
Nevertheless, I'd at least put some protective foil down.
