SEC Leadership Change Doesn't Halt Ripple Appeal

a year ago

As leadership at the SEC changes in January, the commission continues pursuing enforcement cases, including its appeal against Ripple concerning XRP.

Current Status of the Ripple Case

Ripple’s CLO Stuart Alderoty reported that the SEC would not delay submitting its appellate brief following the August ruling. Ripple was found liable for $125 million, accused of using XRP as an unregistered security.

Changes in SEC Leadership

The upcoming inauguration of Donald Trump on January 20 could impact the SEC's approach to the crypto industry. Brad Garlinghouse hinted there might be changes in regulatory and enforcement strategies following leadership shifts.

Role of Donations and Political Actions

Ripple and its executives are actively involved in political efforts, including substantial donations. Stuart Alderoty donated over $300,000 to Trump-supporting committees. Ripple also contributed $45 million to the Fairshake PAC and announced another $25 million after successful media placements supporting 'pro-crypto' candidates.

The ongoing Ripple case and potential shifts in SEC leadership suggest evolving regulatory perspectives on cryptocurrencies in the United States.
