The world is running out of money in all wrong places. <br><br>Bankman-Fried, the ex-FTX boss of crypto, was arrested and will face up to 115 years in prison for the biggest financial scam since the 2008 financial crisis. <br><br>After Sam Bankman-Fried was arrested, cryptocurrency prices plummeted, and many big banks lost millions and billions of dollars, including Gemini, Blockfi, Genesis, Binance, and Alameda. These are just a few examples; many other big banks lost money as well. <br><br>The FTX saga may be the most well-known campaign to pay off debts, but it is by no means the only one. Even the crypto giants are struggling to find money. <br><br>Brian Armstrong, co-founder and CEO of Coinbase, and Changpeng Zhao, CEO of Binance, are suffering major financial difficulties; they have been talking about a potential acquisition of each other’s companies. They have hundreds of billions of dollars in crypto assets in their possession, and more than half of Gemini’s assets are in Gemini Dollars (GUSD), a stablecoin. <br><br>The purpose of stablecoins is to maintain a price of $1 per unit. But they don’t actually contain $1 per token. When customers want to sell their stablecoin for real money, collateral is used to back it up. Companies like Circle, Binance, and Gemini issue their own stablecoins, which means that they have the collateral to back it up. <br><br>But Gemini still doesn’t have anywhere near the amount of collateral it needs to pay off its debts. Stablecoin holders are in a frenzy selling off their stablecoins as they lose trust in the system. <br><br>Buterin, the founder of Ethereum, has also raised concerns that future failures of major stablecoin issuers could trigger a broader financial panic. These companies have been hit with another major crisis and now Gemini is also at risk of bankruptcy. <br><br>Carl Icahn has said, “I don’t believe in crypto, I don’t think crypto has a future.” <br><br>After the FTX scandal, it was assumed that the crypto industry had hit rock bottom. But things have taken an unexpected turn and it’s now evident that the situation is far more serious than initially thought. <br><br>It’s been a week since the top US bank, SVB, went bankrupt. Its insolvency has cost another bank, Signature Bank, its future. <br><br>Signaure’s stock price plummeted to less than $50. <br><br>Only a week ago, the stock price was around $100. <br><br>The bank’s shares were worth $350 last year, but in 10 days, it has lost 85% of its value. <br><br>The bank has announced it will shut down permanently. <br><br>Silicon Valley Bank was shut down by US regulators last Friday, and First Republic Bank stock prices plummeted to their lowest level ever. <br><br>Investors are now moving away from another major bank and Synchrony Financial stocks have plummeted to their lowest level in 10 years. <br><br>Now, Synchrony Bank’s $64 billion in deposits are at risk. <br><br>Regulators closed New York-based Signature Bank on Sunday and are now auctioning it off. <br><br>The auction may end today. <br><br>Investors are now fleeing US bank stocks, and it’s all because of the SVB scandal. <br><br>Silicon Valley Bank was shut down unexpectedly, and the SVB crisis has now cost another major bank its future. <br><br>Silicon Valley Bank was shut down by US regulators Friday, and First Republic Bank stock prices plummeted to their lowest level ever.

in New York and are now auctioning it off. <br><br>The US is facing its biggest banking crisis since 2008. <br><br>The US banking crisis may be solved soon. <br><br>Banks are facing a major crisis, but they may soon see a solution. <br><br>Bank stocks plummeted to new lows yesterday as investors panicked. <br><br>But now it looks like investors will see relief sooner than expected.

limits at ATMs. <br><br>Only a couple of decades ago, it was common for ATMs to have a limit of $300 per day, but these days, it’s normal to see limits of up to $5,000, with Bank of America and Chase having limits of $3,000 and $2,000 respectively. <br><br>Banks have been quietly raising withdrawal limits at ATMs. <br><br>Over the years, the limits have shifted from $300 per day to up to $5,000,
