Odaily Planet Daily News Former CFTC Chairman Chris Giancarlo discussed the high-profile lawsuit brought by the US SEC against Ripple regarding XRP in an interview this week. The SEC accuses Ripple of issuing XRP in violation of securities laws, with federal courts ruling that some issuances meet the criteria for securities while others do not. Giancarlo believes the SEC should reconsider its approach, especially in light of recent legal outcomes and the potentially changing regulatory environment. When asked if the SEC would drop the Ripple lawsuit, Giancarlo said, "I think they should... I bet they will." (Bitcoin.com)
