Ripple: Outside of the US nobody cares about SEC’s stand about … – Crypto News Flash

As the SEC vs Ripple case continues to drag on further, experts have shared their opinion regarding what merits this case holds. Much recently, Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse stated that no one really cares about the SEC suing Ripple outside of the global markets.

As we know, Ripple offers solutions like RippleNet and XRP-based instant settlements to its partners across the globe. Using its solutions Ripple facilitates low-cost instant cross-border transactions by leveraging the power of blockchain technology.

In his recent interview, Garlinghouse stated that governments across the globe like Switzerland, Singapore, Abu Dhabi, the UK, Japan, and others have provided clarity on how they view digital assets. Garlinghouse has previously stated that the US has been lacking majorly in providing clarity over digital assets.

In another development, a banking law expert Todd Phillips said that the Howey Test isnt the best way to judge whether an asset classifies as a security or not. You also need a contract, post-sale legal obligations, and the right to share profit. If this becomes the test, then crypto assets are most likelycommodities, giving the [Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC)] jurisdiction, he said.

Phillips also added that using the Howey Test will not be useful to the SEC in terms of regulating the crypto industry, and will have much wider implications. If the SEC loses to this [argument], it could affect the SECs authority over non-crypto assets. Idk how deep a cut that would be, but the SEC wouldnt be happy. Anyway, my guess is this is the argument Coinbase will use when the SEC sues it, and imo that case, is going to [the Supreme Court of the US (SCOTUS)], he added.
