Banks been bragging about their ironclad systems while running 60-year-old COBOL spaghetti that no one understands anymore. 95% of ATMs, core financial plumbing, all held together by duct tape, prayers and coke.

Anthropic drops Mythos and it speedruns classified systems in hours, not weeks. Warner dropped the quote, Dimon himself admitting AI just exposed a mountain of vulnerabilities.

Hey y’all… go check out my pet rock collection. Those rocks don’t have technical debt. They don’t cry when the next AI red-team rolls up.

Imagine calling Bitcoin a pet rock while your industry depends on a programming language from 1959, undocumented workarounds nobody understands, and a COBOL engineer who retired three times but still gets emergency calls on weekends.

The same people telling us crypto is a dangerous experiment are quietly praying nobody touches their mainframe because nobody knows why it still works.

At least the pet rock don’t require a crisis meeting because someone restarted a server. It doesn’t have 40 years of technical debt hidden behind a login screen. Our traditional finance is a haunted archaeological site that somehow processes trillions of dollars a day.

TL;DR: The people mocking the pet rocks are running civilization on COBOL spaghetti
