Crypto Bank Silvergate Suspends Dividend on Preferred Stock
The bank is looking to preserve capital as it navigates recent volatility in the crypto industry.

The bank said the decision reflects its "focus on maintaining a highly liquid balance sheet with a strong capital position as it navigates recent volatility in the digital asset industry."
Silvergate posted a grim set of results earlier this month, revealing that it suffered a loss of $1 billion in the fourth-quarter, culminating in a $949 million full-year loss.
Suffering contagion from the collapse of several crypto firms last year, which came to a head with the demise of crypto exchange FTX in November, Silverbank's stock lost around 90% of its value in 2022. This has continued in the early part of 2023, with the shares down a further 18% in January.
