      Thank you. Looks like I’m good for now. Glad most of my stuff is in a credit union

        yea I got suspicious a few months back of whether my "neo-bank" was really a real bank cause the wire transfers used a completely different bank's name. so I just moved everything over a month ago to a credit union. so seeing this and seeing the bank that was showing up on my wire transfers as one of the companies who's stock TANKED today, I feel like I really dodged a bullet. vibes based financial decisions worked!

        unless you're/they're over the $250k fdic limit individually, the biggest immediate issue is that the bank might cease operating and it will take time to get a payout. so try to keep back up funds secured at some other bank just in case, especially if it's gonna hit your whole circle all at once if it does go sideways.
