Rapture Bank Crash

The Rapture Bank Crash was a deciding factor in the ultimate decline of rapture. Immediately following the 1959 New Year's Eve Riots at the Kashmir Restaurant, the general populace lost their belief in the Rapture Dollar, causing a large amount of citizens to pull all their money out of the bank. This caused a massive deficit in the banks of Rapture, and made most of the money lose value, apart from use in Vending Machines.
