A 9/11-scale attack may disrupt U.S. financial infrastructure, Professor Jiang says — Attack could disrupt U.S. financial infrastructure

Professor Jiang has raised the possibility that if another attack on the scale of 9/11 were to occur in the U.S., financial infrastructure could be the primary target. In this scenario, he described a situation where routine transactions, such as buying a coffee, would become impossible as systems fail, phones do not process payments, banks do not respond, and account balances are wiped out.

Steven Bartlett shared Professor Jiang's perspective.

But we saved everything 🙂.

Bartlett has previously highlighted significant shifts in high-profile businesses. He noted that the UFC rose in value from a $2 million purchase to an estimated $50 billion over 25 years. In a separate case, Bartlett commented on WeWork’s rapid staff reduction from 13,000 to 3 employees in one week.
