  3) FDIC doesn't usually end up putting in a lot of $ at all; whatever the gap is between deposits and liabilities tends to get made up by stockholders and lenders. And anything they do put in is made up for by charging banks higher insurance premiums. FDIC is not taxpayer funded

  In one session, it might throw an error, and in another session, it might store 3:00am instead of 2:05! 🤯

  there is a ~3 week window for angel rescue packages for great companies (say top 200) caught directly in the SVB crash for which if they don’t come up with options they will miss payroll

  A bailout for shareholders here is unjustified, but having the government backstop deposits until a safe home for SVB assets is found just makes sense. Otherwise businesses are going to pull their money out of every regional bank ASAP.

  Our SVB line of credit was working yday, but was turned off today. That was where we paid our bills (software to manage our backend codebase, lease, slack, etc)
  
  This wked I have to move all of this to my personal credit cards. A *lot* is falling on founders personally.
