After years of missteps and struggles, the banking-as-a-service fintech Synapse officially has gone bankrupt. When a banking or financial startup fails, ordinary people get hurt. According to Synapse’s filings, up to 100 fintechs and 10 million customers could be impacted. But as industry expert Jason Mikula told TechCrunch, some customers using Synapse operate small businesses, meaning that the impact of Synapse’s collapse could be even more widespread than we think.

    Thanks. Short to the point. Question: Is Evolve BAAS fintech also involved with Synapse fiasco?

    Will you keep updating on this… we need word out. And I feel like there isn’t much talk about it. I have money in Yotta it was a way for me to have my sinking funds put away until I needed them. It’s horrible what’s happening I understand there are people who are in way worse situations than me. Just hope they figure it out and help us all out.

    Thanks great swimming up. As one of the 10 million average Joe’s who’s affected and can’t access any of my savings, suddenly living hand to mouth which is better than some, I really appreciate you trying to get the word out

      @@kaelthunderhoof5619fool me once shame on them. I joined Yotta when I was 18 and it seemed like a legit savings account since they claimed it was fdic insured. Luckily I only had a small amount since I preferred American Express but still it’s a hard lesson to learn

    I believe it was a scam from the beginning.

AI is shaping every aspect of our lives — but only a handful of tech giants have a say in what this technology can do. So what’s going on with world governments? Bilawal Sidhu, host of “The TED AI Show,” sits down with geopolitical expert Ian Bremmer to unpack the UN’s just-released plan for “Governing AI for Humanity,” a report that focuses on the urgent need to guide AI towards helping everyone thrive, rather than just the powerful few. Together, they explore the complexities of AI’s rapid growth on a worldwide scale and take a clear-eyed look at the pivotal decisions facing us in the very near future. (Recorded at The TED AI Show on September 10, 2024 )
