When crypto bank is a shadow bank
If your business goes bust, what will you do? You’ll probably need a fresh start. Fortunately, that can be a lot easier than you think. But that is not easy for a shadow bank, particularly the crypto shadow bank. Let’s explore what to do when your shadow bank goes bankrupt.
###What’s the profit in being insolvent?
When your business is profitable and has plenty of cash in the bank, you can either pay your debts or use the profits from your sales to repay your creditors. If you’re able to meet your debts, you can then use the profits from your sales to pay your creditors. In some cases, you can even try to access your assets to pay your creditors. However, crypto shadow bank has illiquidity assets that unlikely can exchange to cash and pay off the debt. They are likely to go bankrupt with cash on hand and forced to sell their illiquid assets later to pay off debts.
###Residual income or loss?
In general, if you’re able to show that you have a profit in being insolvent, it’s a good sign that the other parties in your business have their ear. If they haven’t, they could become targets. If you can show that you have a surplus, that is money left over from one period of activity when you were profitable and unable to pay your bills, you could be able to get your debts forgiven or pay them in full. For example, if your sales this past month were $1,000 and the total amount saved was $400, your surplus could be $100. If you can’t show this, you may have to start again from scratch. Unlike crypto shadow banks, they made huge profits when the market rose but lost quickly when the market went down. When the market goes down, they are less likely to get more funds since investors lost their appetite on the crypto.
###What to do if you’re insolvent and no one will pay your bills
If you can’t show that you have a profit in being insolvent, you usually have three choices. You could either pay your bills or try to get a loan to avoid bankruptcy. You may also be able to get a special interest group on your local real estate board to readize you and make any required property inventory. You can also call a mortgage broker and arrange to buy a home.
But if you are running a crypto shadow bank, you cannot sell crypto because the market goes down faster to preserve your asset price. You cannot get another loan because likely you have highly leveraged your previous loans with high risky assets.
###Get a loan to avoid bankruptcy
If you can’t pay your bills, you might be able to get a loan to make repayments on your credit cards or other debts. However, this shouldn’t be your only source of cash. For example, if you have a net worth of $5 million and your debt is $1 million, you could borrow $500,000 and have it repayments in as little as a month. Again, this is a very low-risk way to make payments.
But in crypto shadow bank, that is no an option for you.
###Make payments on time
If you’re able to show that you have a surplus, you can try to pay your debts in a timely fashion. For example, if your debt is $500 and you owe $100, you could pay the full amount in a few weeks, or you could wait a month and then pay the rest. This is a low-risk way to make payments.
In the crypto shadow bank business, you cannot make payments on time and will likely go bankrupt soon.
###Try private loans
You can go ask private loans with high-interest payments for the short term to offset your losses. This is not an option for crypto shadow bank again, they have already possessed high risky private loans.
Conclusion
Small businesses can weather uncertainty but no crypto shadow banks, which is why many crypto lending services keep collapsing.
