XRP Army Launches Petition to Stop SEC Appeal
The highly anticipated Ripple vs. SEC case has reached a boiling point, with the entire cryptocurrency industry holding its breath. A petition is gaining traction, urging the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to drop its appeal in the Ripple vs. SEC case, labeling it “unnecessary and frivolous.”
The petition, shared by Alex Cobb on X,  argues that the SEC’s appeal will only serve to perpetuate uncertainty and hinder innovation in the cryptocurrency industry.

According to the petition, the SEC’s ongoing battle with Ripple raises eyebrows, and it’s easy to see why. The SEC’s mission is to safeguard investors, ensure fair markets, and facilitate capital growth. However, its prolonged feud with Ripple seems to be doing the opposite – hurting individual investors instead of protecting them.

It explained further that the SEC prioritizes its interests over the investors it is supposed to protect. This isn’t just about Ripple; it’s about the broader implications for the crypto industry. The lack of clarity and inconsistent regulation is causing uncertainty and stifling innovation.

The petition started by XRP Army enjoined other crypto enthusiasts to join the movement to stop the SEC’s unfounded appeal against Ripple’s landmark court victory. According to them, this case goes beyond Ripple, impacting the entire digital currency landscape and the future of decentralized finance.

By signing the petition, they believe the masses will join forces with those who believe in protecting the interests of digital currency enthusiasts and promoting a regulatory environment that fosters growth and freedom.

The Case So Far

Ripple Labs has been battling the SEC since 2020, with the regulatory body claiming that Ripple’s XRP token constitutes a security. However, in July 2023, Judge Analisa Torres ruled that Ripple’s programmatic sales of XRP did not meet the Howey Test’s third condition, essentially declaring that these transactions do not violate U.S. securities regulations.
Despite this ruling, the SEC has signaled its intention to appeal, sparking concerns about the potential consequences for the cryptocurrency market. Ripple’s leadership, including CEO Brad Garlinghouse, has criticized the SEC’s decision, arguing that it perpetuates uncertainty and stifles innovation in the industry.

Response from the Industry

Experts and insiders are weighing in on the situation. Attorney Jeremy Hogan notes that the SEC’s desire to appeal reflects its position as the losing party, rather than a genuine concern for investor protection. Others, like Ripple’s Chief Legal Officer Stuart Alderoty, believe the appeal is a misguided attempt to wage war on the crypto industry.

Potential Impact of the Outcome

The outcome of this case will have far-reaching implications for cryptocurrency regulation. If the SEC’s appeal succeeds, it could set a damaging precedent for the industry, potentially driving companies to more crypto-friendly jurisdictions.

On the other hand, a Ripple victory could establish a clear framework for digital asset classification and regulation, bolstering investor confidence.
