Message permalink: 795724004975444069
I don’t think so
Message permalink: 795724035849060452
But massive implications if they do
Message permalink: 795724089998311424
Classifying as a security would require much more regulatory disclosures
Message permalink: 795724215726374952
SEC tryna flex on crypto, it’s been shot down before but I think in this case the dollar backing complicates things a bit

XRP shills seem pretty confident that they will be fine (from this google doc getting passed around)

numerous claims about how they actually want the lawsuit to get Regulatory Clarity 🤷♂️
Message permalink: 795726355618201631
but yeah imma look into it a bit more, thanks for the info 👍

Yeah that’s an interesting theory- in a way they are not wrong as the SEC regulations ideally are put in place for consumer protection- however from everything I’ve read it would be catastrophic for valuation since at that point Ripple would be guilty of selling unregistered securities to unqualified investors- a felony. By extension this would open up exchanges that sold XRP to liability. One other thing to note is the former head of the SEC, Clayton, is notoriously anti crypto and probably pushed for this lawsuit. He announced his resignation at the end of 2020, so perhaps the new guy, Piwowar, will be more amenable.

Here’s him discussing the exact issue in a 2018 lecture- see at about 30 minutes in, and again at 49 minutes.

One thing that Piwowar does seem more friendly to is the idea of a Bitcoin ETF, which would open up the crypto market to be traded on the exchange. If a fund like that got approved, we’re probably strapping back onto an even bigger rocket 🚀📈
Message permalink: 795966273560641537
oh wow I didn't know about him being on-board with a Bitcoin ETF, we'll see where that goes. I guess in the short term for the XRP case, the fact that Piwowar would take over, would make their chances of surviving the case better, and thus some possible short term gains to be made? However, from what i've read at least, this idea of going into XRP for the long term and that it hits 2k in 2-9 years, I just can't see it happening lol

https://drive.google.com/file/d/15rLzU8yufnVBnXLVdc8c_tIcgyomCoJe/view this is the google doc, the guy writing it is obviously more on the optimistic side and most certainly is holding XRP but it makes an interesting case nonetheless
Message permalink: 795969952393854976
Personally I think ripple is shady and XRP is a shitcoin but I’m also not really familiar with it from anything more than a legal aspect. I’ll give the article a read though.
Message permalink: 795970213895077920
yeah you're probably right lol
Message permalink: 795970888952578059
The reason why I’m bullish on bitcoin is because the big financial institutions are betting on it- im not sure how much room that leaves for smaller alts like XRP- it could be that a rising tide lifts all boats, or smaller coins like XRP that have relied a lot on marketing could be washed out.
Message permalink: 795970896397467648
Ok having given that doc a precursory read, a couple thoughts;
Message permalink: 795975414005628939
A) although the idea of the transaction limit slowing down the upward scale of Bitcoin adoption isn’t without merit, I think other coins like BCH or BSV have done a better job addressing that issue and are already way ahead of XRP. B) the idea that the IMF would adopt XRP as a replacement reserve currency, displacing the Dollar, euro, yuan, yen, the pound, etc is pretty laughable. If anything, and they went that way, the IMF would likely make their own coin. And that is the definition of a long play- if the dollar is displaced by crypto we’re looking at a 20-50 year time line on the most generous estimates. C)If we’re talking about displacing the dollar, I think the yuan or the euro are wayyyy more likely candidates- any crypto would have to surpass them, as well as the 8 other reserve currencies currently recognized by the IMF. It’s a pipe dream and stuff like this makes me question the intelligence/agenda of XRP “shills” when they make these pie in the sky predictions and rely on drawing tenuous connections between ripple executives and the IMF reps. D) I also think it’s silly that to think that BTC, with infinitely more valuable than XRP, wouldn’t be able to patch in quantum computing protections but somehow XRP would, even though neither technology has been invented yet.

Then again, at the end of the day, it’s 23 cents so if you want to buy some and hope for this scenario, go for it. But just be aware that it’s a lottery ticket- big big payout but you’ll probably never cash. If you’re like me you’ve spent hundreds of dollars on poor decisions, nights out, food, video games, or just random shit so I can’t blame anybody who puts a few hundred into this and just hopes for the best.
Message permalink: 795979736374444104
yeah I agree the long term shit in the document is borderline insanity lol, pretty much the same insane theories you see on the XRP schizo threads, i was mainly reading it for stuff on the court case specifically
Message permalink: 795984350264426526
no way i would be looking to hold hoping for this sequence of events
