Appearing in MarketWatch on March 17, 2026, Genna Contino speaks to Lauren Saunders, associate director and director of federal advocacy at NCLC about how the biggest YouTuber in the world has tied his name to Evolve Bank.
Saunders said Evolve’s track record, including its connection to the Synapse bankruptcy, makes her wary of the bank’s role behind financial apps aimed at young users.
“One of the last places in the world I would want my teen to put money is an app associated with Evolve.”
