⚠️ Real Failures. Real Costs. Real Prevention.

🚨 Synapse's Collapse
In 2024, Synapse, a fintech intermediary, filed for bankruptcy, leaving over 100,000 customers unable to access more than $85 million in funds. The company's failure to maintain clear records and safeguard customer funds led to significant financial losses and legal challenges.
