I really think SVB is a symptom of the VC bubble bursting more than it is evidence of a systemic failure of the US banking system beginning a-la 2008. I assume that’s not what a lot of people who follow me want to hear. But I think it happens to be true.

Cost of financing going up isn't the biggest factor you think?

The risk-free rate is nearly at 5% right now! Has anyone seen how shitty LP returns have been on average over the past 5 years? SVB had all their eggs in that basket, and they designed a balance sheet with a duration risk and asset strategy that didn’t take into account the possibility the music could stop. And the music has been stopping. Ask any founder who has tried to raise in the past six months.

What's your take on VCs in general?

It will be interesting to see it is handled compared to last time. Are VCs as critical as Wall Street in the eyes of the govt? I’m think so, 1000x

Agree. I see many people saying this. Unironically, the proposed legislation SBF and many crypto companies push for is actually designed to help/bailout the VCs. Not the consumers/plebs. Good thing Sams never passed. I knew that dude was trouble from day one. Me #[2] and #[3] always did. 💠

Apparently laws changed in 2018 and they didn’t have to actually meet reserves and of course, no policing of it so… SVB did the minimum. They’ll keep their yachts, Im sure. 🙄

Over 1000 YC startups impacted, and they are only a fraction of total ecosystem. Also with many jobless, I hope Nostr and Web5 will be a great opportunity for everyone to find use-cases and start building on these ecosystems. At least don’t have to worry abt bank runs with Bitcoin!
