<p>As per John Morgan, a cryptocurrency analyst on X platform, the <a href="https://cryptonewsland.com/binance-penalized-2-25-million-in-india-signal-of-tougher-cryptocurrency-oversight/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">action against Binance</a> by the <a href="https://www.sec.gov/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission </a>(SEC) is taking advantage of a verdict in the Ripple XRP case. In contrast to a Southern District of New York (SDNY) judge’s ruling regarding XRP’s security status, the SEC has highlighted the legal opinion of a California district court judge.</p>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-sec-files-ripple-lawsuit-as-supplemental-authority"><strong>SEC Files Ripple Lawsuit as Supplemental Authority</strong></h3>
<p>The SEC included the Ripple class action lawsuit as an additional source of authority in its litigation against Binance, Binance.US, and former CEO Changpeng Zhao, which it filed with the District Court of Columbia. The SEC contends that its <a href="https://www.sec.gov/news/press-release/2023-101" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">litigation against Binance</a> is pertinent to the ruling rendered by the California judge in the Ripple case. With the majority of the discovery disagreements settled, this action is taken as the <a href="https://cryptonewsland.com/binance-suspends-some-accounts-amid-bitzlato-case/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Binance case</a> approaches the conclusion of its discovery and deposition phase.</p>
<p>The court is now seeking rulings on several motions, including a joint motion to dismiss the lawsuit. In the Ripple Labs, Inc. Litigation, Judge Hamilton ruled in favour of Ripple, dismissing most securities violation arguments. However, a trial will proceed on misleading statements made by Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse about XRP sales.</p>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-ripple-ceo-s-stance-on-misleading-statements"><strong>Ripple CEO’s Stance on Misleading Statements</strong></h3>
<p>Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse commented on the case, asserting that he stands by his statements and looks forward to clarifying them during the trial. He noted that the sole plaintiff, who owns a few hundred XRP, did not buy it directly from Ripple and might not have heard the statements before trading.</p>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-sec-highlights-judge-hamilton-s-opinion"><strong>SEC Highlights Judge Hamilton’s Opinion</strong></h3>
<p>Judge Hamilton’s ruling contradicts the SDNY court’s decision that XRP programmatic sales are not securities, sparking debate within the <a href="https://cryptonewsland.com/ripple-ceos-bullish-insights-fuel-xrp-community-anticipation/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">XRP community</a>. The judge’s ruling on the third prong of the Howey test was objective, stating that programmatic buyers might have purchased XRP expecting profits from Ripple’s efforts.</p>
<p>The SEC also wants the court to consider Ripple CEO’s misleading statements about XRP. This poses a concern for Ripple as the SEC may use this California case in the Second Circuit to appeal Judge Torres’ summary judgment on XRP. However, the court must first decide if XRP sales qualify as securities.</p>
