Then <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/fullycrypto.com\/multiple-crypto-firms-reveal-signature-bank-exposure\"><span>Signature Bank was close<\/span><\/a><span>d. Then a board member accused the government of closing Signature Bank to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/fullycrypto.com\/signature-bank-closed-to-send-very-strong-anti-crypto-message\"><span>send an \u2018anti-crypto\u2019 message<\/span><\/a><span>. Then the New York Department of Financial Services said that it had<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/fullycrypto.com\/signature-bank-closure-nothing-to-do-with-crypto-says-regulator\"><span> nothing to do with crypto<\/span><\/a><span>. Then the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/fullycrypto.com\/u-s-regulators-dont-want-banks-doing-crypto\"><span>same board member doubled down<\/span><\/a><span> and said it absolutely was. Then Reuters reported that anyone buying Silicon Valley Bank was not allowed to conduct any crypto business. Then the New York Department of Financial Services said this wasn\u2019t true.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Mad.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span>FTX Shills Hit With $1 Billion Class Action Lawsuit<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span>FTX shills were shilling themselves this week when a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/fullycrypto.com\/1-billion-class-action-lawsuit-for-ftx-shills\"><span>class action lawsuit was filed<\/span><\/a><span> against a group of internet influencers by a consortium of investors who had lost money through the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/fullycrypto.com\/ftx-collapse-a-timeline\"><span>collapse of FTX<\/span><\/a><span> last year.
