SVB just proved that the traditional institutions aren't the real place to be for billionaires. Banks are down 10% on the day as the dominos start to fall. The fact that a few banks are still around doesn't mean they are safe. I'll soon be hitting nine zeros, but where will I keep my funds then? Is this the reason why Biz leaders kept saying 'Crypto is the future'?

The banks still left are definitely not few but 1 thing is striking; banks and other tradFi institutions have been around for a very long time but with little/no improvement of their services in terms of earnings for their users but Defi, even though relatively a new comer in the financial scene, has been able to open up a new door of numerous earning opportunities for users and it gets better by the day.

The value of fiat funny money like USD is based entirely on this banking system that we can see is nothing more than smoke and mirrors.

If rich people were wise they would put a large stake of their wealth into Bitcoin where there is complete transparency and no risk of meltdown.

Assets like gold, real estate, equities are vulnerable to manipulation from the government and banking system as well.

Bitcoin is just so obvious when you weigh it against everything else. As a store of value free from the manipulation of banks, governments, Jews, etc. it has no equal.

It will take a while for rich people to figure this out though. Most still see it as a scam.

Exactly. When you own Bitcoin in a Bitcoin wallet, you have complete ownership of that Bitcoin. It's yours. Nobody can touch it. Nobody can use it to gamble. Nobody can take it, lose it, and tell you it's still there. The government can't take it from you if they decide you have been naughty. A bank can't take it. Unless you're an idiot it can't be hacked.

When you have Bitcoin in a wallet, it is truly yours on a level that can't be said for basically anything else. You own it as much as you own your own thoughts.

Yeah, the price goes up and down. What happens when the government seizes your assets or the bank shuts you down? You lose everything. They can't do that with Bitcoin. Your net worth might fluctuate but it's completely secure. It's not going to zero if you get fucked over by the system.

Why this doesn't appeal to more rich people is beyond me.

I know a guy who literally lost everything in a lawsuit. Millions of dollars down the drain. Stolen from the government. He had to completely start over. Even though this happened to him he still has no interest in Bitcoin or crypto.

SVB wasn't a traditional institution, and it was for tech startups and businesses only. They gamed the regulations by maintaining that they were a Category IV bank to get around having to meet LCR and other regulations/requirements and they fucked up in the end.

A traditional institution is a fortress bank like JP Morgan.

Also no billionaire would be braindead enough to have his wealth sitting in a bank losing value. Billionaires and Millionaires for that matter almost always have their wealth tied up in assets and investments. It's literally idiotic to keep cash on hand beyond what you need for payments. Your banks checking/savings account interest rate is like 100x less than inflation.

If you aren't an idiot then you will never lose your Bitcoin. People lose their Bitcoin when they don't write down their keys and store them in a safe physical location. They get hacked when they keep their keys somewhere accessible from the internet. Better yet, memorize your keys, or memorize part of your key and keep the rest written down in multiple secure places.

Hacks or not, crypto is still the future; there is no sector that doesn't come with its own risks; it's the ability to circumvent these risks that would keep you going. I prefer to be in charge of choosing my risk tolerance than allow a central entity choose the risk levels for the whole population and that's the more reason why I would keep being an advocate for Defi. Even in Defi, there are platforms that are decentralized from top to bottom and some that still have elements of centrality. It's your duty to seek for these ideal platforms and leverage on them.
