Yes, this is my understanding as well. At least it's a lot more consistent with the banking guarantee. Deposits over 100,000 euros are always at risk from bank failure, and those who have more should therefore spread it. Those who haven't or couldn't will have to cough up, but things could/would have been worse for them if the banks had failed.
