March 11 (Reuters) - The U.S. Federal Reserve and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp are weighing the creation of a fund that would allow regulators to backstop more deposits at banks that run into trouble in the wake of Silicon Valley Bank's collapse...

Silly wabbit. The debt is sold and you still pay.
The FDIC replenishes the fund by selling assets from the failed banks. I worked there from 2009-2014, when 500 banks were closed.
Panicing?
Well look at that, a way is being cleared to roll out CBDC. What a coincidence, and right around May as predicted.
Backstopping deposits seems a lot less disruptive and less expensive than shutting down a bank.
Yes, I think they are.
They just sell the debt to someone else. Same as with your mortgage. They don't have to make their creditors hole but you sure as hell will have to.
Yes, the DSC can roll out any one of a potential million cover stories for what they actually do - just print more. it's worked for so long, and now we find that a dollar is worth 2% of what it was in 1913.
CBDC is what I think we'll see soon as a "solution". Other facets could include a "WW3" scenario - war is always an option the DSC uses to get out of jams, or to simply usher in a new paradigm.
This time though, I believe the DSC is in panic, and knows they are being taken down.

Why?
The $2 billion has to cover depositors up to $250k each.
So they could make 8 thousand depositors whole if all had the maximum exposure?
One word to summarize this situation: BOHICA
Side note.
Do people hide money under mattress?
A little less than 20 percent of Americans hide cash in a sock drawer, while 11 percent put it under the mattress and 10 percent secure it in a cookie jar. Another 9 percent keep their cash somewhere else in the house. CNBC
since the beginning of the century, the FDIC has made depositors whole even the uninsured deposits. However if there is a Cascade of bank failures then the depositors will have to settle for a portion of their uninsured deposits.
It’s going to be an eff’n blood bath.
GREATEST ECONOMY EVAH!!!

Wasn’t it broncobama that bragged about ability to print money as if a magic trick. ??? Stupidity ingrained in repeating with expectation of results.

Stroke of the pen - law of the land.
I played a role in adding $11 million to the DIF, in one transaction. Investors were seeking a loan modification for their commercial property in Las Vegas. The note was held by a failed bank which was taken over by the FDIC.
The face value of the note was $40 million, and the investors put in a loan mod request at $17 million. My boss's boss asked me to evaluate their request, based on the financial statements and tax returns they provided.
I reviewed the file and assembled about ten questions for him to ask them. As he told me, they asked to modify their proposal, and bumped their proposal to $28 million. That was close to market value, based on current conditions. The loss on the original note was determined during the period the bank was resolved.
I even told my wife to quit listening to the doom and gloom, to trust the FDIC. When she countered my argument that I worked for them for 5 years, by reminding me she worked for Homeland Security for 35 years, I said we're talking apples and oranges. The FDIC has a reputation as a well run, professional agency, while Homeland Security...you get my drift.
I'm on their Ready Recall list, where I'd probably be rehired as a GS-14. I told my current employer I'm going nowhere, I'm on my "last rodeo", closer to 70 than 65.
An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.
