🚨CIRCLE HELD UNDISCLOSED SUM AT SILICON VALLEY BANK. AS OF LAST ATTESTATION, $11.4 BILLION RESERVES WERE IN CASH.
#Tether/#USDC watch! ALRIGHT next question: How much of $USDC's cash is now stuck in banks FDIC closed down? Because they're 2 for 2 on $SI and $SIVB, with $SBNY just around the corner. Can't all be insured deposits. They had $8.6B last attestation.

Regulators are clearly dropping the ball given the #Silvergate collapse, said @AlderLaneEggs. “The #FDIC and the #OCV need to look into the mirror and see who exactly was examining this bank and how this bank was allowed to go on for as long as it did,” he said. 14/

What’s @AlderLaneEggs’ biggest mistake in investing predictions? “I’m wrong on stocks a lot. I’m wrong on timing of stocks. I’m wrong on how things play out, could take longer than I think.” But, he says, “I’m never wrong on fundamentals when I short a stock, never.” 18/
