Cover Story
Bank Run Blues
Another brutal week for the global economy as SVB, a leading bank in the USA came to the verge of shutting down. Following the announcements, the economy started to tumble down, but fortunately, we see some light at the end of the tunnel now.
At the time of making the concept, the market looked like it was doomsday. So we went with a doomsday issue of an old newspaper, featuring different articles about the various events that took place in the past week. The headline was of course the bank run that had been initiated following the uncertainty in the market. We decided to show several of our favorite crypto characters like Pepe, Wojak, Beard Guy and so on ready for the marathon-bank- run. The marksman was the villain from monopoly firing away the starting signal.
While I worked on the drawings, and Dudly designed the front page of our Redlion Gazette newspaper the articles were being crafted by our writer-artist Stephen. You can tell from the articles that satirical articles come naturally to Stephen. The animations make it a bit difficult to read in the video but you can read and enjoy them below.
We have long weeks of uncertainty ahead of us. Sooner or later these forces that affect crypto will disappear and we will emerge victorious for an ever-running bull run.
