Der CEO von Ripple bekräftigt, dass der Kampf für klare Vorschriften fortgesetzt werden muss
- Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse claims that the battle for regulatory clarity in the crypto space “has to continue.”
- He claims that the SEC acted in “bad faith, plain and simple.”
- Garlinghouse behauptet außerdem, dass die Regulierungsbehörde absichtlich Verwirrung in der Branche gestiftet habe.
Der CEO des Blockchain-Zahlungsunternehmens Ripple, Brad Garlinghouse, hat erklärt, dass der Kampf um regulatorische Klarheit im Krypto-Bereich angesichts der von der US-amerikanischen Börsenaufsichtsbehörde SEC (Securities and Exchange Commission) gegen die führenden Krypto-Börsen Binance und Coinbase eingereichten Klagen fortgesetzt werden muss.
The executive noted that the court battle between the SEC and Ripple is about to come to an end while adding that this is only the beginning of many future battles that the crypto space has to fight for. Garlinghouse stated that the fight for clarity “has to continue.”
It is crucial to mention here that following a lot of back-and-forth movement between the SEC and Ripple, the Hinman documents were unveiled on June 13, and Ripple is not very optimistic when it comes to the conclusion of the case. The documents revolve around the former Director of the SEC’s Division of Corporate Finance, William Hinman, who stated that Ethereum (ETH) cannot be classified as a security. Based on the same argument, the Ripple CEO stated that the XRP token is also not a security.
Laut Garlinghouse bestätigen die Hinman-Dokumente, dass die SEC unter der Führung des Vorsitzenden Gary Gensler wissentlich für Verwirrung im Kryptoraum gesorgt hat. Er sagte, nachdem die Regulierungsbehörde für Verwirrung über die Regeln gesorgt hatte, nutzte sie die Situation zur Durchsetzung aus.
Der Ripple-Manager sagte über a Twitter-Video posted on June 17 that this confusion created by the regulator is the “definition of putting politics over people […] and the pursuit of power over sound policy.” He also claims that the regulator acted in “bad faith, plain and simple.”
Garlinghouse also claims that in his several meetings with the SEC, he answered “every question [the SEC] had, and not once did they suggest to me that XRP was a security.” He emphasized that the Hinman documents are not about a single cryptocurrency or blockchain in general, but they represent the “relentless” enforcement action by the SEC.
“This is about showing the extent to which the SEC has relentlessly enforced action against crypto players, while professing fake open arms and calls to come in and register, all the while lying about their so-called guidance,” Garlinghouse said.
Wie bereits von Bitnation berichtet, baut Ripple seine globale Präsenz weiter aus und kündigte kürzlich eine an partnership with Colombia’s central bank, Banco de la República to test a blockchain-based CBDC.
