Ripple News: XRP Holders Rally Against SEC Appeal, Threaten Lawsuit!

Published by

As tensions rise in the legal battle between Ripple and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), XRP holders are speaking out on social media platforms like X. They have launched a petition titled “Stop the SEC’s Unnecessary and Frivolous Appeal in the Ripple v. SEC Case,” which has attracted nearly 5,000 signatures.

Here’s everything important you have got to know.

Can a Petition Against the SEC Succeed?

In a recent podcast episode with Thinking Crypto, attorney Fred Rispoli discussed the potential outcomes of the petition and whether individual investors could sue the SEC. When asked if a petition against the SEC could succeed, Rispoli responded positively but cautioned that winning such a case would be difficult.

He highlighted that John Deaton, who has gained support from 75,000 people, might consider filing a case against the SEC. However, Rispoli pointed out the challenge of proving that the SEC acted outside its legal authority.

“And there are certainly some arguments to make that happen, especially as the revolving door has become a little more grotesque and easily, more easily able to be discovered through civil discovery, for example. But that happened in the Madoff case, where everybody that got screwed by Madoff sued the SEC and they lost on the grounds that the SEC was immune and the opinion was scathing. The second circuit said the SEC was incompetent, imbecilic, and derelict in their duties, but they were just bad at their jobs. They didn’t go outside of the range where they could be liable, civilly liable for that.”

It’s Not Going to Be Easy!

While there is a chance for a lawsuit, Rispoli acknowledged the challenges involved. He expressed his strong support for Deaton, saying he would not want anybody else leading that charge other than Mister Deaton himself.

He also emphasized the need for broader reform within the SEC, calling for increased transparency and efforts to root out corruption beyond the current case.

The future of crypto regulation may hinge on the outcome of this case. Stay tuned to Coinpedia.
