Ripple Whale Dumps 40 Million XRP on Bybit
XRP has been heavily infused into the beleaguered exchange Bybit amid the horror of a major security breach. A transaction involving the transfer of 40 million XRP from an undisclosed wallet to Bybit was brought to light by cryptocurrency influencer XRP Captain (@UniverseTwenty). This comes after one of the biggest cryptocurrency thefts ever, which saw Bybit lose $1.46 billion in digital assets due to a recent breach. XRP Captain posted a screenshot of a report from Watcher Guru that showed the exchange is taking loans to pay withdrawals, despite ByBit’s assurances to customers that everything was OK. Although the reason for this large transfer has not been made public, community rumors indicate that it is a loan to increase Bybit’s liquidity in the wake of the recent security breach. Others in the community went further, with one commentator speculating that this transfer was a loan from Brad Garlinghouse, the CEO of Ripple. Ripple’s SEC case Bullish “As predicted, like the rest of the SEC’s crypto-enforcement program, the SEC Coinbase case is dead,” said former SEC enforcement chief John Reed Stark, who emphasized the change on social media site X this week. “The SEC’s Ripple appeal is next on the chopping block,” he emphasized. Stark clarified that the agency’s decision to lessen its involvement in crypto enforcement indicated a more comprehensive change in its regulatory strategy and that further cases, such as the well-known Ripple appeal, would shortly be dropped. The agency’s change in tactics is part of a larger reorganization of its enforcement strategy, which also includes dismissing key players in crypto litigation and rebranding its crypto unit as a cyber unit. The established task force headed by SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce, dubbed “Crypto Mom,” assumes leadership of the agency’s direction, these actions imply that any enforcement actions about cryptocurrency may be placed on indefinite pause.
