The top popular crypto companies, which collapsed badly, were FTX, Alameda Research, BlockFi, Celsius, Voyager Digital, Genesis Global Trading, Luna & UST stablecoin, Three Arrow Capital (3AC), crypto-friendly Banks Silvergate Bank & Silicon Valley Bank. In most of the failures, crypto investors lost several billion dollars.
On 9 March 2023, In speaking with the Peterson Institute for International Economics, the Federal Reserve Vice Chairman Michael Barr said that the Central Bank is now increasing its attention on the activities going on in the crypto sector, as millions of people lost their investment.
