Digital disruption is the new business threat. Old continuity plans focused historically on fires, floods or server outages but, today, centralised failure can mean billion-dollar crypto collapses, regulatory shockwaves or code bugs that freeze assets overnight. Decentralised blockchains flip the script: redundancy and transparency take out single points of failure, making continuity a design feature, not an afterthought. G7 mega-banks launching a new stablecoin signals this shift in action, therefore, to stay resilient, leaders must blend legacy standards with real-time drills, digital asset training and empowerment to communicate in crisis.
