If you’re a startup founder, why would you stash your cash in a small, weird bank like SVB instead of a big safe bank like JP Morgan Chase, or in T-bills? This is actually the biggest mystery of this whole situation.

I bet there's a lot of people right here at ycombinator that could help Noah with this mystery.
