Ripple will lose against SEC, crypto executive claims


According to a recent tweet by Gene Hoffman, chief operating officer at blockchain company Chia Network, the SEC will defeat Ripple fintech giant in the long-running lawsuit. Hoffman believes that the only outcome all XRP supporters can expect is that a federal judge will rule that Ripple's sales of XRP made XRP a security. Federal judges, says Hoffman, realize that most people purchased XRP in the hope that "the number would go up." Therefore, it is unlikely that Ripple and its supporters' arguments about the alleged utility of the cryptocurrency would succeed.


4.1 billion XRP moved from Bittrex within hour, here's what may be happening


Yesterday, Whale Alert spotted 10 transactions, carrying a total of 4.124 billion XRP coins. The funds were moved from top U.S.-based cryptocurrency exchange Bittrex, the cryptocurrency tracker reports. Out of those ten transactions, seven carried a total of 500,000,000 XRP apiece, and the remaining two carried 300,000,000 and 324,254,650 XRP. The total amount of these transfers, 4.1 billion XRP, is evaluated at approximately $1.5 billion in fiat. While Whale Alert marked receiving wallets as “unknown,” Bithomp, an XRP-focused wallet tracking platform, shows that they were set up by Upbit, a major South Korean crypto exchange.

XRP community reacts to Michael Saylor's comments on Ripple lawsuit


During his recent appearance on the Patrick Bet David (PBD) podcast, MicroStrategy chairman Michael Saylor stated that the SEC should shut down Ripple, claiming that XRP and, likewise, ETH are unregistered securities. CryptoLaw founder John Deaton has reacted to Saylor's comments, saying that calling an asset an investment contract or security requires specific factual and legal analysis. He added that the MicroStrategy CEO did a great job oversimplifying the Howey test on the show, but he was wrong. The reaction of the XRP community was not long in coming, with many people agreeing with the CryptoLaw founder’s statements.
