Fractional reserve is inherently financially unstable. Investing deposits while simultaneously promising to pay them on demand is inherently financially unstable. There’s over 100 years repeatedly demonstrating this. Like clockwork, this exact scenario gets repeatedly demonstrated.

There’s no way to solve it without pain. That’s like saying you can go to the gym and get big muscles without getting sore.
