Who will be the empty bag holders? Thus, if Silvergate were to join the spate of major crypto industry entities that filed bankruptcy recently, it could leave the FDIC holding the (empty) bag, responsible for paying out deposit insurance on Silvergate’s FDIC insured accounts while the FHLB is first in line for any assets remaining.

Crypto isn't the biggest worry in the Silvergate-Home Loan bank story ...  What is more, because Home Loan bank advances get repaid before Federal Deposit Insurance claims in a resolution, the FDIC could potentially take losses were the bank to fail.

“By using the FHLB as its functional ‘lender of last resort,’ Silvergate has further introduced crypto market risk into the traditional banking system. A publicly traded company, Silvergate’s 52-week range of a $162 high compared to its $10 low shows just how severely the lender’s entanglement in the crypto sector has affected investor confidence.

The FDIC’s recent Office of Inspector General Report singles out Silvergate and Moonstone as examples of crypto-related risks: "For example, it was reported that 90 percent of Silvergate Bank’s deposit base (approximately $11.9 billion) were accounts for crypto asset customers.34 In the 4th quarter of 2022, Silvergate Bank crypto asset customers withdrew funds causing total bank deposits to fall to $3.8 billion—a 68-percent deposit reduction from $11.9 billion in the 3rd quarter.35 As a result, the bank was forced to quickly raise funds to satisfy customer withdrawals. The bank sold $5.2 billion in debt securities at a loss of $718 million, which is greater than the bank’s total profits since about 2013."
