I hear you but the US is a much different economy than war-torn Germany post WWII or a South American economy. The US still holds the world's reserve currency which means they have the ability to halt inflation by raising interest rates (however high they may have to raise them).

Never-the-less, even a small jump in interest rates will still cause technology stock prices to collapse and probably a serious recession.

Hyper-inflation? No. This is highly unlikely in the US. But having said that, I'm open to having my mind changed. Point me in the direction of a credible economist and I'll check it out.
