Money is fungible. What is the equivalent of deposit insurance on my deepest, darkest secrets? This does not seem like a good analogy.

It's the same trade-off though - how much security can I provide versus how much security can they provide?

The insurance is just an incentive to keep my stuff safe (and in the case of savings guarantees, an incentive to keep consumer-facing banks from going bust).
