What happens if you lose your down payment before closing on a house?

[/u/bubu_law]

I had a small sum of money that I lost in the recent Yotta collapse/fiasco. This just got me wondering and is making me very nervous about the down payment I have sitting in my FDIC insured bank. What happens if the bank suddenly collapses and I can’t access my money to close on the house in time? What would I be liable for specially since it was out of my control?
