This chart is much more interesting, since you can see the total assets involved this year are close to that of the 2008 crisis: <a href="https://www.fdic.gov/bank/historical/bank/index.html" rel="nofollow">https://www.fdic.gov/bank/historical/bank/index.html</a><p>(Assuming I'm reading this correctly - please correct me if I'm misunderstanding the y-axis!)
The FDIC chose a chart design that can display up to 25 bank failures per month (See 2020 for examples of how the Y axis is used for failures).<p>Of course, too much shouldn't be read into this, but it's interesting they chose such a chart rather than a table listing failures.
