In a now-deleted\u00a0<\/span>tweet<\/span><\/a> on March 12, Binance CEO, Changpeng Zhao, spoke on the failure of Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) and the U.S. government’s subsequent bailout of depositors. In the tweet, Zhao said the government doesn’t want to get entangled.

He argued that once the government bails out a bank, it creates a dilemma because if they don’t bail out a bank in the future, they will be questioned as to why they did it before. Therefore, banks have “zero incentives to manage risk, leading them to take maximum risks for maximum returns.”<\/span><\/p>\n

Bailing out Silicon Valley Bank can be seen as a preemptive move to prevent a potential banking crisis. Regulators have been working behind closed doors to\u00a0<\/span>find<\/span><\/a>\u00a0a buyer for the bank.\u00a0<\/span>Meanwhile, Bitcoin prices increased on March 13, rising above $24,500.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span>Signature Bank’s<\/span><\/a>\u00a0failure further compounded fears that the banking crisis could spread. The government announced that all SVB depositors would be protected and able to access their money from today, March 13. Additionally, steps would be implemented to protect the bank’s customers and prevent further bank runs.<\/span><\/p>\n
