With the loss of two large crypto-friendly banks in a week, some in the crypto industry say crypto enterprises may have trouble finding traditional banking partners.Due to &#34;systemic risk,&#34; the Federal Reserve closed Signature Bank on March 12. .Silvergate Bank, another crypto-friendly bank, announced its March 8 closure and voluntary liquidation a week earlier.Signature Bank has $88.6 billion in deposits on Dec. 31, per insurance papers.The Wolf Of All Streets, Scott Melker, believes the failure of the three banks will leave crypto firms &#34;essentially&#34; without banking choices.Silvergate, Silicon Valley, and Signature closed. &#34;Depositors will be compensated, but American crypto firms have no banks,&#34; he stated. Coinshares Chief Strategy Officer Meltem Demirors tweeted that &#34;crypto in america has been unbanked&#34; in one week. She said SEN and SigNet &#34;are the most difficult to replace.&#34;The Silvergate Exchange Network (SEN) and Signature Bank&#39;s &#34;Signet&#34; allowed commercial crypto clients to make real-time dollar payments at any time.Nic Carter of Castle Island Ventures told CNBC on March 12 that their loss could impede bitcoin liquidity. He added that Signet and SEN were crucial for enterprises to bring money in, but expects other banks would fill the hole.Others think another bank will step in once the three enterprises close. The Blockchain Association&#39;s head of policy, Jake Chervinsky, said the institutions&#39; shutdown will leave a &#34;big void&#34; in crypto-friendly banking. “Many banks can grab this opportunity without the same dangers as these three. &#34;The question is whether banking regulators will block it,&#34; he continued. Some claim suitable alternatives exist.BlockTower Capital Managing Partner Mike Bucella told CNBC that several industry players are switching to Mercury and Axos Bank. “Near-term, crypto banking in North America is tough,” he stated. Yet, a long tail of challenger banks may fill the gap.&#34;Crypto&#39;s financial rails&#34; were shut down in less than a week, said Messari CEO Ryan Selkis, warning USDC of the future. USDC. &#34;Washington is clear: crypto is not welcome here,&#34; he stated. From now on, the industry should strive hard to defend and promote USDC. &#34;Crypto&#39;s last stand in the US,&#34; Selkis said.Circle, the stablecoin USDC issuer, announced on Mar. 10 that wires to remove balances had not yet been completed, leaving $3.3 billion of its $40 billion USDC reserves at Silicon Valley Bank (SVB).
