    @AnonUpon There's no way, in my view, they can solve all the problems that will result. I forgot to mention in my thread Roku had about a quarter of their cash reserves held there, Roblox was using that as their bank, a lot of tech start ups with venture capital went there for their…

    @cvpayne Charles is this true.. BREAKING STOCK ALERT: Roku falls in after-hours trading after revealing 26% OF TOTAL CASH is held at SVB... ARE WE LOOKING AT A 2008 CRASH ON MONDAY OR WORSE?

  • MeierT777 INFAMY (@MeierT777) reported

    @CordCuttersNews Well, they should have had a better internal financial game plan. They already told employees not to worry about anything and said they can keep funding stuff for the next year or so which in my experience says they’re in trouble. Roku got lazy. They might be done.

    @MLSKickoffTimes @AppleTV not sure tbh, i have a few audio issues on roku as well but when i switch to my playstation it works fine

  • je7f Jeff (@je7f) reported

    @RFKR_Ted Worked for a decade with no issues. All you need is any web browser. You're talking about paying for Apple TV and a roku.

  • saradgore Sara D Gore (@saradgore) reported

    Everything is terrible, I need one of you to start some defense contractor YA -level drama to distract me. Or someone sneak into Roku City and send me pics of all the sad men.

  • Dos_317 Allison Rondeau (@Dos_317) reported

    I used my @Roku on my parents tv to watch a movie with them. Plugged it back into mine and my tv is just saying ‘no signal’ - idk how to fix this 🥺 helppp #roku #rokuhelp

  • alexspi1 Alex Spiliotopoulos (@alexspi1) reported

    @BillAckman @SVB_Financial I'm talking about the SVB depositors/companies selling shares. I'm reading about Roblox and Roku's deposits, and it seems to me this is 100% their management fault and consequently their shareholders problem.

  • SvSrini Srini Vasan (@SvSrini) reported

    Based on their cash flows, collateral they can put up (get VCs to pony up more cash), and personal guarantees for SMBs but asset backed guarantees for the Roku types like the rest of Main Street. While I feel terrible about the depositors, it begs the question

  • shannonmwise Shannon Wise (@shannonmwise) reported

    @Roku helped MILLIONS of us #cutthecord and save so much of our hard earned $$. Now they need our help. If you're in need of an upgrade, NOW is the time to buy a new Roku! #SVBCrash. #SaveROKU

  • aae0819 Alf (@aae0819) reported

    @paramountplus please fix your @Roku app subtitles. They randomly disappear and can’t get them back.

  • jbrown_1cor13 Jamila Brown (@jbrown_1cor13) reported

    @ashonzay_7 Not having your money insured beyond 250k is a reality for many if you park more than the 250k in one spot. roku 26% of cash reserves with SVB. That’s why this becomes a bigger issue for govt. If they don’t step in more small banks will have depositors cashing out to avoid this.

    FOREIGN Top #Companies with Major Funds Held in #Silicon Valley Bank before its Crash. 1. Circle: $3.3 billion 2. Roku: $487 million 3. BlockFi: $227 million 4. Roblox: $150 million 5. Ginkgo Bio: $74 million 6. iRhythm: $55 million 7. Rocket Lab: $38 million

  • justme72432691 justme (@justme72432691) reported

    @DavidSacks There's nothing arbitrary about a company like Roku being too stupid to know not to park half a billion at ONE BANK. They don't have treasury professionals? Their mistake should be our problem?

  • justme72432691 justme (@justme72432691) reported

    @DavidSacks Every 16-year-old with a checking accounts know there is a $250K FDIC limit. The fact that a lot of tech companies didn't hedge their risk doesn't mean it's the tax-payer's problem. Roku's parking $500 million in one bank is MY problem?

  • chrismorvant2 25 Percenter (@chrismorvant2) reported

    People think this bank crash only impacts the billionaires...this is my story. I bought a Roku tv on Tuesday. By Friday I find out Roku lost the bag. Now I don't know if my TV is going to work. I've got a son to think about. The tantrums when he can't watch Toy Story!!

  • NobleNothing Anthony Allen (@NobleNothing) reported

    @Couch_Investor @cvpayne @theallinpod We don't need Roku at all. We don't need Coin or Zoom or Robinhood AT ALL. We have a real problem when we bail out shitcos like these, directly or indirectly. What retards keep all that cash in an effin bank?

  • RightThruTheMid RightThruTheMiddle (@RightThruTheMid) reported

    @TeamYouTube Thanks very much for the quick reply. I do appreciate it. But... Watching on a Roku, and that advice does not help get rid of the scores. But, why do you do it in the first place? If I'm watching live, I know the score. If I'm watching a replay, I don't want to know the score.

  • Brian_Nicholson Brian Nicholson (@Brian_Nicholson) reported

    @lrowell222 @VidAngel Similar issue with Roku this week. Nearly unwatchable.

  • DinoSox16 Reverend Dino Sox 🦖🦕 (@DinoSox16) reported

    @Crunchyroll I have a Roku tv. Any chance y’all are going to fix up the app on there? It just crashes and signs you out when you play a video. It’s been a few years of this so I just thought you’d get it together eventually, I know I can cast from my phone, but I don’t want to

  • spicyalienmeat Alien Superstar (@spicyalienmeat) reported

    Remote doesn’t work. Roku overheated. Wtf.

  • Dean_Paz Quarant-Dean 🇨🇦 (@Dean_Paz) reported

    Why the hell does the @TSN_Sports app on my @Roku Never work to watch the @SaskRushLAX games?

  • JohnCon89879921 John Connor (@JohnCon89879921) reported

    @biancoresearch Nah, dude, they can do that. I'll even say: "Damn, that sucks, bro!" But don't expect me to want to ****** bail them out with my tax dollars. The country is broken if we gotta save Roku but mom-and-pop shops are allowed to fail because capitalism.

    @JoshuaHosler SAD….. America if we dan help Ukraine…. We should help ROKU!!!!

  • CBulldogTrader Ghost of Chloe the Bulldog (@CBulldogTrader) reported

    @clueless_1337 Actually, those are Roku's numbers but it's worse for smaller startups. Many VC deals required them to bank with SVB. I don't think 100k people should lose their jobs when there's an easy fix. We piss away far more money on Ukraine and other Welfare programs.

    @FOXSports why is USA game not working on Roku through fox sports app, but other games do? No help info just contact or retry…..

  • M0nk3y181 MONK (@M0nk3y181) reported

    @biancoresearch Roku has cash management problem, but it is really normal to have no confidence in a bank that served the area for decades? Are you saying we have not have faith in our local banks?
