Hey guys, Silicon Valley Bank contagion is spreading fast,
this resulted in heavy depegs of USDC , DAI, FRAX. 10%-20% losses
currently rebound in progress, but not sure that the worst is over yet.

USDC holds a circulating supply of around 40 .9 billion while its market cap declined to stand at $35.4 billion. The deficit between the dollar pegged value and current standing value is on a stretch as the market is witnessing a high liquidity situation now.
