14 hours ago I wrote about the 5,000 withdrawal limit Ginko Financial had imposed; a recent check showed that the new withdrawal limit is 10,000 Lindens.

The Ginko Financial Website is also reporting this, but interestingly is not keeping track of what the withdrawal limit was; a previous post was edited with the new withdrawal limit.

This increase in the withdrawal limit demonstrates that the run on the bank itself may be on the downswing. While there has been some speculation as to whether this was related to Linden Lab's new policy on gambling, it might be interesting to consider that the run on the bank could have been tied to WSE ATMs being down for about 5 days, during which time tier payments and other costs might have needed to be paid. Ginko Financial's ATM is on the WSE floor.

Perhaps the withdrawal limit will increase again tomorrow. We shall see.
