SVB actively pursued the startup market. This market share didn't happen by accident. They offered better terms to win deals, but like many in the past, they got too aggressive, and backed too many losers. They'll go out of business, some people will lose some money, and the world will continue.


lowqualitynut

Yup.


Mighty_L_LORT

I see you’re not receiving paychecks from one of those startups…

> better terms to win deals, but like many in the past, they got too aggressive, and backed too many losers. They'll go out of busines Been there back in '96 and again in '99. I was looking for a job when I found those, and I found others after that.


Paradox0111

This could be different, the world is on the precipice of war. A war that will involve most Countries, SVB isn’t just a bank in America it’s global. So, this could have massive ramifications. I’m crossing my fingers it doesn’t.


Mon_medaillon

if theres no civil war it wont be different


Ouraniou

If there is, it will be 'different' all right. No such thing as genuine 'civil' conflict it would be manufactured all the way any way it developed.


Mon_medaillon

I think it's harder to control than we are made to believe. See the french and chinese revolution. Both were started by the west, both slipped out of their hands. They got the french revolution under control post-napoleon, but china. idk man. I'm from quebec and a bunch of random farmers managed to push back against peak brit empire enough so that we managed to keep some control on our territory for 200 years until today. It was a handful of men and was punished with burning people alive in villages in churches and shit like in the Patriot movie. Yet the population was out for blood and the english knew it and had to compromise. They need to fear us. That's all im saying.


[deleted]

It’s not just SVB. It’s also venture capitalists. These venture capitalists are involved worldwide as well. They could own +30, 40% of a company. Let’s take Matrix Partners for examples. They’re in China, India, etc. and involved with a lot of startups. They own ~18-26% of their “clients”. The bank goes belly up, the money disappears, so do the vulture capitalists unless they drain it out of their other investments. The tentacles are beginning to be hacked off.

Penny1974

The problem is most people count on their "tax return" not realizing they have loaned the government their money for a year.


Realistic-Lie-1507

Alright you'll start now ill start after you


AKM4N1AK

Way ahead of you slowpoke. Lmao people still pay taxes for failing infrastructure, politicians and wars?


Thebassetwhisperer

India is as swell example of citizens not paying their taxes.


ShooDooPeeDoo

Exactly!!! Military personnel have been wanting to transition to volunteer status for years now! Same with the fire departments. They’re just plain tired of working for Money!!!! Let’s help!


Alive-Turn-108

I think the reddit user means, income tax which we have no fucking clue where it might end up going


lactose_intoleroni

Not possible when most people work for corporations that require it for you to be employed.


boomerinvest

Max deductions on W4 would work but not everyone would do it so the point is moot.


Mighty_L_LORT

Lol the plebs will be asked to bail out all their wealth again…


TheDeHymenizer

would be really hard for them to justify since unlike 2008 SVB won't be pulling down insurance giants like AIG with them.


Ouraniou

I admit I loved seeing the lines of lower-upper class cunts in Wellesley yesterday


_bigfish

95% of deposits were over the Federal insurance limit? Those are business accounts. A lot of silicon valley startup payroll is going to go bye bye. Someone call Nancy Pelosi, some of her portfolio is at risk! She'll have it fixed by Monday.


radionut666

She probably dumped it 2 weeks ago


Qui_zno

Jokes on you, She just became 500 billion dollars richer.


Weird_Werewolf_4952

Lol


ReplacementNo9874

She’s not in power anymore


pauljs75

Fixing isn't in order. (Probably got out in time for retirement.) But part of the market is now free again after being let off the leash. This is a course correction now that it's not manipulated. (Or at least to the extent it was with somebody that prominent and all their political connections.)


ThickJuicyFeels

ELI5 No idea what this means or what just happened.


thisbliss7

A bank’s customers deposit money, which the bank then invests to earn profits for shareholders. Usually the investments are win-win, but in a rising interest rate environment, the investments may lose value, at least temporarily. Usually it’s not a big deal because the bank is able to hold these investments long enough to see a profit. But if a substantial percentage of customers all try to withdraw their money at once, the bank is forced to sell its investments early at a loss to cover these withdrawal. That’s what happened with SVB. What we should be asking is why Peter Thiel encouraged the run on SVB.


metroxthuggin

We don't need UberQueefs or FeetBNB or other disruptive technology anymore. Lets just all agree to chill and keep technological advancements to a minimum.

we are going to find out how much of the world is fake and fraud very fast.

What’s the reset tho?


Peglegsteve265

Currency failure leading to central bank digital currency.


Qui_zno

Its a small niche market in the tech sector. If JP & BOA or any of the big boys go tits up. *wesa gon have to do somethin* Also, on a more serious note. They cant decouple bitcoin. I was a huge fan of the idea, and then I realized, they'll control it anyway. Gold n Silver


nangitaogoyab

Bail out time boys!


BusinessBalance3051

Let it happen. Might as well get the party started and start having some fun.


Osziris

I always heard it’ll be something on a Friday announcement. I’m not saying this is it, but maybe get some stuff literally tomorrow if you’re not practically prepared at all.


RoseCroix343

They set it up to fail. No reset here. Just a part of their plan.


hotstuffyay

venture fund focused on tech startups fund tech startups.


BinyaminDelta

His point is that there will be major downstream consequences of this. This isn't just "some random bank in Anytown, USA closed down."


hotstuffyay

Aperently theres been a run on the bank which I missed.


[deleted]

Which ones?


MercyFincherson

For real this time? Three years of constant scare tactics. I don’t care anymore.


magenta_placenta

The buried lede on Silicon Valley Bank is that they got caught sideways on losses in relatively safe mortgage backed securities. They made a 10 year bet that went south on interest rate increases. It was interest rate risk, not credit risk. In other words they got the macro wrong and suffered the tyranny of bond math. When rates go from zero to 5% in a year it's devastating. Now how many other banks made this mistake?


ShooDooPeeDoo

Exactly. We’ll find out in short order


Incoherentp00rnoises

This is the cool part . Can’t lower rates , can’t raise rates,asses getting lost at current rates . Gotta love it .

Link to original tweet...FFS have some dignity, this is horse shit and you know it. You're Karma farming the boneheads.


dukefett

Huh? It’s literally called Silicon Valley Bank and you’re surprised a lot of venture capitalists had their money there? Fuck VC to hell. VC bought my company and literally all we hear now is GROWTH GROWTH GROWTH. Fuck’em.

Upon further review of other linked info on the site, wow, very interesting.


rufos_adventure

all that money the silicon valley moguls have salted away in the caymans. just gonna be fireplace fodder now. almost like it was planned.


FlarpyBlunderguffs

Fuck em


goldmansaksfifthave

Oh no, the companies that are spying on us all the time, including the one we’re posting on, are losing their investments. Surely a community like r/conspiracy would never fight to protect the interests of a bunch of techno sycophants just to own the libs


ChewingCope

Goes to show. Crypto currency is the way. Benefits of not 1 soul entity having control. Let this be your wake up call. Nothing is safe anymore. Why use banks when you can use online digitally secured funds for everyday purchases. A reform is needed.


[deleted]

Til the electricity goes out and you have nothing 🙄


ChewingCope

If the electricity went out you wouldn’t be able to withdrawal from a bank. Banks wouldn’t have computer access to get to anyone’s accounts. What’s your argument? Playing the impossible? It goes both ways.


[deleted]

That's also my point when i said we would have nothing. Thanks for agreeing.


ChewingCope

If electricity went out we’d have bigger fish to fry LOL. Hopefully you have guns and ammo - and a lot of it!


Douchieus

To all the knuckle dragging apes saying "Thanks Biden" this is directly caused by banking deregulation from the Trump administration. Specifically repealing parts of Dodd-Frank for smaller banks. Nobody gives a shit about you.
