		tiffanyh on March 10, 2023 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: FDIC Takes over Silicon Valley Bank Question being: if a meaningful portion of Stripes customers were to bank with SVB, and if SVB were to seize operating - would this effect Stripe? It’d be a Jedi move for Stripe to straight up acquire SVB. Imagine how strong of an offering they could create then.

Stripe doesn't have the assets to acquire SVB. As it is they're looking for funding to pay employees' stock tax bills.
