WHY AI AGENTS COULD MAKE BANK RUNS FASTER AND MORE VIOLENT

Summary from the TLDR Crypto newsletter

The real story isn't an imminent agentic bank run but the collapse of cheap bank funding broadly, which will compress return on equity for banks and brokers like Schwab and IBKR that rely on idle sweep-account cash. When agentic bank runs do happen, they'll be faster and more violent than human ones like SVB's, because AI agents have much lower behavioral diversity than humans.
