<p>In 2020, <a href="https://cryptoticker.io/en/ripples-mysterious-xrp-transfers/">Ripple</a> had a problem. The SEC accused them of trading unregistered securities. This meant breaking some laws. Many individuals didn’t agree. They filed a Motion to Intervene to defend XRP. 12,600 investors wanted to become Defendants. This was a big deal. Judge Torres said it was a first.</p>

   <p lang="en" dir="ltr">The fact that 12,600 individual investors felt so strong about the injustice being served by the SEC, that they petitioned a Federal Judge to become Defendants, was not lost on Judge Torres, considering she took note that it had never been done.</p>— John E Deaton (@JohnEDeaton1) <a href="https://twitter.com/JohnEDeaton1/status/1707464553460605182?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">September 28, 2023</a>
