De acordo com um repórter da Fox Business, o ex-presidente da Comissão de Negociação de Futuros de Commodities dos EUA (CFTC), Christopher Giancarlo, acredita que o próximo presidente da Comissão de Valores Mobiliários dos EUA pode abandonar o caso Ripple . Outra pesquisa publicada no X pelo Good Morning Crypto revelou que dos 1.312 votos, mais de 94% dos dent acreditavam que o caso Ripple seria rejeitado.
Durante a discussão, Giancarlo revelou que a SEC dos EUA poderá reavaliar os detalhes do caso divulgados em agosto. Em agosto, a juíza Annalisa Torres decidiu que a venda de XRP da Ripple para mercados secundários não violava nenhuma regulamentação. A empresa ainda teve que pagar US$ 125 milhões em multas pela venda de XRP a clientes institucionais. O caso SEC vs. Ripple está em andamento desde dezembro de 2020.
A comissão ainda apresentou um pedido de apelação no início de outubro, após a decisão do juiz Torres em agosto. A SEC dos EUA também interpôs recurso de última hora em 18 de outubro, contestando outros aspectos do caso.
Ripple também entrou com um contra-recurso em 10 de outubro para contestar o recurso da SEC dos EUA. Muitas figuras importantes da comunidade criptográfica, incluindo Brad Garlinghouse e Stuart Alderoty, da Ripple , acreditavam que o caso estava quase encerrado.

Fox Business senior correspondent Charles Gasparino asked the former CFTC chair about other regulatory questions. The former CFTC chair suggested that the U.S. SEC review other past cases filed against crypto companies. He believes the commission should drop most of the cases filed against the companies.
Last year has been especially shaky for centralized crypto exchanges in the U.S., with the commission suing multiple, including Kraken, KuCoin, and Coinbase. The commission suggested that crypto companies could not ignore the rules at the expense of investors.
Giancarlo also expressed his views on XRP, mentioning his long-term stance on the coin. The former CFTC chair confirmed that XRP was never a security and should not have been under the scrutiny of the U.S. SEC.
The former CFTC chair, referred to as the ‘Crypto Dad,’ has been speculated to be a top option as the first ‘crypto czar.’ The position would involve overlooking the crypto regulations and policies. Fintech company Trakx discussed Giancarlo’s pro-crypto stance, his alignment with incoming president Donald Trump’s policies, and his past in a regulatory position.
The recent discussion between Gasparino and Giancarlo comes due to Gary Gensler’s resignation as the U.S. SEC chair. Gensler tweeted on November 21 that he would resign from office effective January 20. The commission’s chair entered office in April 2021. The chair has also gained negative sentiment among the crypto community.
XRP’s price skyrocketed by about 25% and reached $1.43 after the announcement, hitting the highest level since May 2021. A CoinMarketCap report suggested an increased sentiment among investors for the possible dropping of the Ripple case. Today, the coin is up by about 4.88% and hovered around $1.55. XRP is still one of the top gainers in the past 7 days, up over 10%.
A recent report confirmed that Gensler’s resignation and the possibility of a more crypto-friendly U.S. SEC chair have led to momentum in several altcoins, including XRP. The report indicated investors’ fear of holding coins at risk of being classified as securities by the commission. With Gensler leaving office, investors are hopeful that most of the issues will dissipate, the report added.
