Yes, it's yet another potentially destabilising factor you can add to the pile though.

How is it destabilizing?

If 20% of depositor funds are SHIB then 20% of reserves should be SHIB.

As far as I am concerned, if they have 90% of their reserves in literal dog shit that is fine IF their liabilities are also in dog shit.

I wouldnt pay $10,000 a turd, but that is my value judgement, if someone else does then their problem.

Potentially destabilising is what I said. In a similar fashion to how 20% of my diet consisting of Taco Bell would carry a greater destabilising potential than a the same share of FDA recommended diet conforming home-cooked meals would.

You're the one bringing this up, not me. Not refuting it though.
