Was wondering what you guys thought about the odds of CBDC being rushed before people can get their cash into physical, tangible assets due to all the banking turmoil.

Never was any banking turmoil. Bad banks went down with bad practices. A couple more may fall but will be nothing like 2008. If they fall it wont be any major ones.

Every bank can fail if there is a run.
The few that have gone under definitely had bad practices.
Higher interest rates and tighter underwriting practices force businesses to use more cash resources.
Any bank stuck with the "smell" of trouble can get dunked on.

These failures aren't likely. But you are dealing with human emotions/reactions. And for that reason, no bank can survive a run.

You people have to quit watching the news man. This is one of the biggest, most blown up stories I’ve ever seen. The banking system is fine. Social media and the media in general created mass chaos for SVB. Had they not done this the bank could probably have made it.

$43 billion run on the bank thanks to social media. Just for reference purposes, the largest run in 2008 was $16 billion.

It's insane to me how badly people want to see things go up in smoke.

25 year banker and poster since 2003. I will take a full time ban if more than 10 banks go under in the next three to six months.

I can agree with that.

SVB did some stupid shite. But yes, I agree.

Every bank is vulnerable to an irrational public. It is foolish to think otherwise. I agree with everything you have posted. But the banks are subject to the emotional responses from humans which are not always Dr. Spok.

It can be worse at the next spot. People are that stupid.
