The No. 2 stablecoin lost its peg on Saturday dropping to $0.8774 in the wake of news that it had $3.3 billion trapped in the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank a day earlier.
Nor was it a bailout — the bank's shareholders and executives have been wiped out — but that got drowned out in soundbites on Friday and Saturday about not "bailing out" banks. Beyond that, he noted, it turned out that Circle had initiated a withdrawal wire transfer on Thursday, before SVB was placed in FDIC receivership on Friday morning, meaning it will likely be honored when banks reopen Monday.
At a time when regulators have been pressuring mainstream banks to avoid working with crypto clients — citing the fear of a crisis in digital assets spreading "systemic risk" into mainstream financial markets — the industry's two main bank partners are suddenly gone. Still, Circle has very well-audited reserves and a history of regulatory compliance generally matched by Coinbase, its Nasdaq-listed partner in USDC.
