I first got exposed to the problem from this Adam Conover interview with Dan Olson: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=4aU-QkJfgGw

So buy very long puts on Chime is my take away from that Yahoo article.
Edit: Nevermind... Chime is still private. They keep pushing back their IPO because fintech stocks keep declining...
