Ripple vs U.S. SEC: Here’s All That Happened

Speculations that the lawsuit between Ripple and the U.S. SEC is about to end rose phenomenally this week, as Ashley Prosper, an expert on the XRP lawsuit, claimed that the SEC’s conclusive response during the remedies phase held significant importance for the case.

The United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) submitted its final reply in the remedies phase on May 6. Notably, pro-XRP lawyer James Murphy criticized the reply, deeming it pointless and lacking substantial arguments about institutional investors’ financial harm.

Meanwhile, the broader industry sentiments also hinted that the SEC’s arguments in reply briefs for remedies and final judgment were weak, as Ripple CLO Stuart Alderoty reiterated. Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse, on the other hand, shared vital insights on hot trends surrounding Ripple, such as the firm’s operational endeavors, recent developments within the XRPL, strategies for the long-running lawsuit against the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, etc.

The American blockchain payments company also appears to be considering launching a stablecoin in June, as hinted by CTO David Schwartz. In the interim, XRP, the cryptocurrency backed by Ripple Labs, continued to trade sluggishly this week.

Binance’s Crypto Offerings

Whereas, Binance, one of the world’s most renowned crypto exchanges, embarked on a plethora of crypto-related developments this week. Reportedly, the U.S. DoJ (Department of Justice) called out the FRA (Forensic Risk Alliance) to monitor Binance Holdings’ activities following its money-laundering saga.

Meanwhile, Binance-related wallets were noted to have burnt 222 million Terra Luna Classic tokens (LUNC) this week. In other news surrounding the pioneering CEX, Binance CEO Richard Teng issued a plea for the release of unjustly detained Binance executive Tigran Gambaryan.

In the world of cryptocurrency, two major players have been making headlines this week – Ripple and Binance. The ongoing lawsuit between Ripple and the U.S. SEC has been a topic of much speculation, with experts and industry insiders closely watching every development.

Ashley Prosper, a well-known expert on the XRP lawsuit, recently stated that the SEC’s final reply in the remedies phase could hold the key to the outcome of the case. However, pro-XRP lawyer James Murphy criticized the SEC’s response, calling it lacking in substance.

On the other hand, Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse has been sharing insights on the company’s future plans, including the possibility of launching a stablecoin in June. Despite these developments, XRP has been trading sluggishly in the market.

Meanwhile, Binance, one of the largest cryptocurrency exchanges in the world, has also been in the spotlight. The U.S. Department of Justice has called in the Forensic Risk Alliance to monitor Binance Holdings’ activities following allegations of money laundering. Additionally, Binance-related wallets have burnt a significant amount of Terra Luna Classic tokens this week.

In a separate development, Binance CEO Richard Teng has issued a plea for the release of Binance executive Tigran Gambaryan, who is currently detained. With both Ripple and Binance making waves in the crypto world, all eyes are on these companies as they navigate through legal challenges and regulatory scrutiny.
