Key Points:
According to Bloomberg, Ripple’s CEO Brad Garlinghouse, several overseas jurisdictions like Singapore, Hong Kong, the UK, and Dubai are actively partnering with the cryptocurrency industry, offering clear regulatory guidelines and fostering growth.
Garlinghouse expressed optimism about the company’s prospects in these regions, despite having spent well over $100 million on legal fees. He noted:
“You have a government that has unlimited resources to keep fighting a fight they’ve already lost.”
The SEC recently filed a motion in the Southern District of New York, seeking clarification on its lawsuit against Ripple Labs. The SEC cited conflicting opinions within U.S. courts regarding the application of the Howey test—a legal assessment used by the SEC to determine if a transaction qualifies as an investment contract and thus constitutes a financial security.
In a significant development, a July summary judgment ruled that Ripple’s XRP sales to institutional investors breached securities laws, but sales on public exchanges to retail investors did not.
Amidst this legal turmoil, Ripple Labs announced its acquisition of Fortress Trust, a crypto infrastructure startup based in Nevada. This strategic move grants Ripple a regulatory license in the state, potentially opening up new avenues for the company in the U.S. market.
