The $223 Trillion Derivatives Machine — How It Grew Beyond Control

The Fed created the Reverse Repo Facility (RRP) in 2013 as a temporary safety tool to control interest rates. It was supposed to be small and short-lived.

But after COVID money-printing and extremely low interest rates, money market funds began parking trillions of dollars in the RRP because it was risk-free and paid good interest.

By 2023, the facility held over $2 trillion every night, sucking money out of the real economy and starving businesses and banks of credit.

Now the Fed is stuck:

If they shut it down, markets could break.

If they keep it, the economy keeps losing access to capital.

The “temporary safety valve” became a permanent money trap, proving the system now depends on Fed intervention — and showing how easily the Fed could control money in a future digital dollar system.
