The SEC is facing mounting legal setbacks in its case against Ripple and Coinbase, potentially signaling a shift in the regulatory landscape for cryptocurrencies. Ripple’s Chief Legal Officer, Stuart Alderoty, has commented that recent court rulings show the SEC’s approach as “arbitrary and capricious.” This sentiment was echoed in the recent Grayscale Bitcoin ETF case, where the investment firm triumphed over the SEC.Congressman Warren Davidson has called for the firing of SEC Chair Gary Gensler, intensifying the cryptocurrency battles. Ripple’s CEO, Brad Garlinghouse, has openly deemed the SEC’s behavior as “shameful.”The outcome of the SEC’s case against Coinbase for operating as an unregistered securities exchange could have a significant impact on the regulatory environment. Investors are closely watching the SEC’s struggles, especially in light of upcoming deadlines in the Ripple case. Ripple’s next move is to file its opposition to the SEC’s appeal motion, a part of a four-step legal process that could shape market sentiments substantially. The SEC’s legal setbacks have boosted confidence in Ripple and Coinbase’s legal battles, and the momentum appears to be swinging in favor of the two companies. If the SEC continues to falter in court, Ripple and Coinbase might just be on the path to not just legal victory, but also fundamentally changing the future landscape of crypto regulations.
