Context: The FTX collapse in November 2022 appears to be the start of this current banking crisis. FTX collapse apparently damaged Silvergate Capital. Silvergate Capital failure on 3-8-23 damaged SVB on 3-9-23, resulting in its failure on 3-10-23. Silvergate Capital ripple possibly cause of Signature Bank (NY) failure on 3-12-23. Ripples sent to 6 more banks on 3-13-23 resulting in the Moody's watch alert. Connection between SVB or Silvergate and Signature has not yet been explicitly identified. Signature Bank was being sued over FTX.
