Fun fact: a large portion of bank accounting systems are not fully consistent. It's a but scary at first, but of you think about it, it's not that surprising: e.g. not all ATMs and shops are always online, particularly in the past. Many systems also couldn't and some still can't, keep up with the full load on peak times in a central manner.
