Exchange officials also said their company faces “de minimis corporate exposure to Silvergate.” Just last week, LedgerX, one of the few companies that stayed afloat following the <a href="https://thenewscrypto.com/tag/ftx/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">FTX</a> crash, announced that it will also switch to using Signature Bank moving ahead.The move by Coinbase came only one day after Silvergate Capital Corporation, Silvergate Bank’s parent company, postponed the release of the bank’s annual 10-K report due to concerns that more losses would cause the institution to be “less than well capitalized.”Silvergate said in an <a href="https://www.sec.gov/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">SEC</a> filing on Wednesday that the firm was evaluating how these developments might affect “its ability to continue as a going concern.” As a result of a bank run caused by the FTX collapse, Silvergate had to liquidate assets at fire-sale prices in the preceding quarter, resulting in a loss of $1 billion.
