The move was seen as a sign of the banking industry\u2019s lack of understanding of the new technology and its implications. This is especially concerning for web3 startups, who rely on banking services to operate their businesses. <\/p>\n<p>The shutdown was triggered by a bank run on SVB Bank, a major banking partner for web3 startups. SVB Bank had been providing services to many of these startups, but when news of the bank run spread, Silvergate Bank decided to shut down accounts of several web3 startups. This was done in order to protect the bank from potential losses due to the bank run.<\/p>\n<p>The incident highlights the need for web3 startups to be aware of the risks associated with banking services. Banking is a highly regulated industry and banks are required to comply with strict regulations. As such, banks are often hesitant to provide services to new and innovative technologies such as web3. This means that web3 startups must be prepared for the possibility of their banking partner shutting down their accounts without warning.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, web3 startups must also be aware of the potential risks associated with banking services. Banks are not always able to provide the same level of security that web3 startups require. This means that web3 startups must take extra steps to ensure that their funds are secure. This includes using secure wallets and other security measures to protect their funds from theft and fraud.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, web3 startups must also be aware of the potential for banks to shut down their accounts without warning. Banks have the right to do this if they deem it necessary to protect their own interests. As such, web3 startups should ensure that they have an alternative banking partner in place in case their current banking partner shuts down their accounts.<\/p>\n<p>The Silvergate Bank shutdown and SVB Bank run incident serves as a reminder for web3 startups to be aware of the risks associated with banking services. By taking the necessary precautions, web3 startups can ensure that their funds are secure and that they are prepared for any potential disruptions in their banking services.<\/p>\n<ul class=\"plato-post-bottom-links\">\n<li class=\"plato-post-bottom-link-amplifi\">SEO Powered Content &amp; PR Distribution. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amplifipr.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Get Amplified Today.<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"plato-post-bottom-link-platoblockchain\">Platoblockchain.
