**Ripple vs SEC: Moby Dick-style Drama! 🐋**

- The legal drama between Ripple and the SEC is getting more exciting! The SEC has officially appealed the 2023 ruling that found Ripple's XRP sales did not violate US securities laws.

- Stuart Alderoty, Ripple's CLO, likened the SEC to Captain Ahab from the novel Moby Dick. Imagine Gary Gensler chasing the "white whale" that never gets caught!

- Alderoty is confident that the Court of Appeal will affirm or expand the previous ruling. "The SEC's best hope? Remand, but even that is unlikely," he said.

- US Attorney Jeremy Hogan called the SEC's move a "chicken move" because it did not dare to face Garlinghouse and Larsen in front of a jury.
