Those are paper losses but if they keep bonds to maturity they will reap full maturity amount that includes what they paid+ interest but concern is liquidity in the shortterm if everyone rushes to withdraw money as 9 months market bonds (short term) are paying 5% interest especially smaller banks will be impacted. Hope fed protects such banks
