Three Key Proposals from Ripple
Ripple’s Legal Saga Nears Closure

Ripple, a leading blockchain payments firm, has submitted its formal response to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), urging the agency to eliminate regulatory ambiguity in the crypto sector.

This comes after SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce recently called for public input under the initiative titled “There must be some way out of here,” aimed at refining crypto taxonomy rules and ending the confusion bred by past SEC leadership.

Ripple Criticizes Past SEC Approach

In its letter, Ripple criticized the prior leadership under Gary Gensler, stating that the SEC’s crypto guidance has been excessively complicated, inconsistent, and lacking legal backing. The company asserted that the agency’s past approach seemed more focused on creating confusion than offering clarity.

Three Key Proposals from Ripple

Ripple has proposed three actionable solutions for regulatory reform:

Return to First Principles: The SEC should only regulate assets that qualify as securities under existing federal laws.

Stay Within Statutory Bounds: Ripple emphasized that only Congress has the authority to create new laws—not regulatory bodies.

Provide Market Clarity: The company praised recent SEC guidance that meme coins are not securities and called for a similar approach across the board.

Ripple’s Legal Saga Nears Closure

Ripple, one of the most affected by the SEC’s unclear policies, is approaching the end of its legal battle with the agency. With the SEC withdrawing its appeal, experts believe Ripple may soon drop its cross-appeal if a favorable resolution is reached.
