First Circle USDC had 3.3bn of exposure to SVB

Second, Signature and Signet get shut down leaving USDC high and dry as far as I can see. 

Third - I guess BNY Mellon will pick up the pieces? That is what Jeremy Allaire thinks but I am not so sure. 

Crypto’s banking rails have been decapitated in 5 days. Could this also be a war on USDC. Seems so.

Circle Scrambles to Right USDC After Signature Bank Failure

Circle Internet Financial's $3.3 billion cash reserves problem was seemingly solved Sunday when federal regulators promised that depositors of failed Silicon Valley Bank would be made whole in short order. But Circle's USDC stablecoin isn't out of the woods.

So, I remember hearing all the OG's snicker at the crypto class of 2020! You know what, zip it, I've earned my stripes! This reminds me of a relationship I had back in the day, beautifully toxic.

SVB didn't have to buy all those 10 years and loan out the way they did.. they are still trad fi.. although the best in favor of crypto-ites, still, they couldn't manage their books. I am torn on the state of things. I think everything just needs to be burned to the ground and for people to actually remember the pain so as to not make the same mistakes again.

Looks like fed is bailing out SVB. Interesting to say the least

Possible Nation wide bank run. Everybody in crypto should run out to your local bank and pull out some cash tomorrow and give the Fed Reserve and Fed Gov a big old 🖕🏻. To hell with the corrupt assholes for trying to destroy digital assets.
