Ripple's Chief Legal Officer: Wouldn't be surprised if the U.S. SEC appeals the XRP case
ChainCatcher news, according to Bitcoin.com, Ripple's Chief Legal Officer Stuart Alderoty recently discussed the possibility of the U.S. SEC appealing the final ruling in the XRP case during an interview.Alderoty stated, "If the SEC is a rational actor, they should free themselves from this case." He emphasized the court's conclusion that "there are no victims, no one has suffered any loss in this case, and there are no fraud allegations."However, Alderoty expressed skepticism about the SEC's rationality, pointing out, "But we all know that when it comes to cryptocurrency, the SEC has proven itself to be irrational."
