These are businesses that had a reasonable expectation for their deposits to be there, and we are not advocating for a bailout of SVB's management or equity holders.
Sir you should talk rather firmly to your VC friends who told their portfolio companies to withdraw to maybe not spread FUD next time because things happen. It sucks this time around. Get those founders bridge loans instead of replying to a rando on the internet (though I appreciate the opportunity to interact).
If you want to understand why SVB failed, feel free to read writeups in proper financial publications, like FT or Bloomberg, and please avoid "mainstream" sites by clueless journos with zero finance knowledge. This one is good: https://www.ft.com/content/0387e331-61b4-4848-9e50-04775b4c3...
SVB didn't fail because of "FUD", but because of a dumb decision to invest at the top. SVB is squarely at fault here.

These are businesses who willing took a chance that their deposits might not be there.
