🚨 Ripple vs. SEC: Signs of a Truce? CLO Praises SEC Chair Ahead of Key Deadline
🗓 With the August 15 status report deadline approaching, a surprising shift is catching the attention of the crypto and legal worlds alike.
🔹 Ripple’s Chief Legal Officer, Stuart Alderoty, has publicly praised SEC Chair Atkins for moving away from the aggressive enforcement tactics of the prior administration.
🔹 Alderoty applauds Atkins for recognizing that prior policies pushed crypto innovation offshore and for committing to clearer, more tailored regulations.
🔹 The SEC’s launch of “Project Crypto” is a major shift — aiming to modernize securities rules for on-chain finance, in collaboration with Commissioner Hester Peirce’s Crypto Task Force.
🔹 Chair Atkins has also stated that most crypto assets are not securities, directly challenging the blanket use of the Howey Test.
⚖️ This dramatic pivot has sparked speculation that the XRP lawsuit may soon end. Legal voices like Bill Morgan and Marc Fagel suggest both sides might drop their appeals altogether.
🔍 Could this be the beginning of regulatory clarity—and the end of a long legal saga?
📢 What would this mean for the future of U.S. crypto policy and innovation?
