‘Ludicrous’ idea that Signature Bank’s collapse was connected to crypto, says NYDFS head

Adrienne Harris, superintendent of the New York Department of Financial Services, or NYDFS, has reportedly said the closure of the crypto-friendly Signature Bank in March had nothing to do with exposure to digital assets. According to an April 5 report from The Wall Street Journal, Harris made the remarks at the Chainalysis Links conference in New York City.
