At a big co I worked at, the lack of consistency between trading systems caused money to (dis)appear (into)out of thin air.

Prior to one of these hiccups, I hypothesized, given how shitty the codebase was, that they must be tracking this stuff poorly.

This led to an argument with my boss, who assumed things magically worked.

Days later, we received an email announcing an audit one one of these accounting discrepancies.

JPMC proposed using crypto, internally, to consistently manage cash flow.

Not sure if it went anywhere.
