RYVYL Announces No Exposure to Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank


SAN DIEGO, CA, March 13, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- RYVYL Inc. (NASDAQ: RVYL) ("RYVYL” or the "Company"), a company that leverages the security of the blockchain and USD-pegged stablecoin technology with near-real-time attestation to conduct payment transactions, today announced the Company has no exposure to Silicon Valley Bank (“SVB”) and Signature Bank. Although the Company had deposits with Signature Bank of NY in the past, it has recently moved its entire ecosystem to other banks.

Additionally, the Company never held deposits or otherwise collaborated with SVB, and therefore, RYVYL’s operations as a company are unaffected by SVB’s closure. The Company believes SVB’s collapse further demonstrates that its coyni technology is superior to other digital payment structures with its USD-pegged architecture, transparency, stability and security.

The Company’s payment and banking technology is a critically important evolutionary step for the industry.
