And how much money was lost in those failures by depositors?

And don't fall back on 'they were bailed out'. They were bailed out by other banks buying their assets + liabilities, and by the insurance payments they were making. They weren't getting a blank check from the treasury. That's the system working.

Who bailed out the crypto losses? Some of the losers got made whole, but many, many, many are realized losses.
