Stuart Alderoty, Ripple’s chief legal officer, fanned the flames of speculation once again regarding the possibility that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission might reconsider its approach to crypto regulation.

 

Alderoty noted on X that SEC Chair Atkins was quoted in POLITICO stating he’s ushering in “a new day” at the SEC: “Great minds? Well, at least one for sure – his.” Alderoty appears to seize this moment to align with Ripple, suggesting that his chair’s reformist rhetoric aligns with Boundless Ripple’s long-standing legal and regulatory arguments.

The XRP community has long awaited Ripple in their XRPs, hoping for a definitive moment in history when XRPs become favorable after prolonged legal disputes that have been heated over the years. Other digital markets have joined the discussion, highlighting Alderoty’s quote as Ripple’s chance to turn the tables.

“A new day” was not phrased mindfully. It reflects Atkins’ approach towards crypto firms – stifling innovation, as Ripple and many other firms IN the past few years. These companies characterize the SEC’s stance on unclear and indiscriminate boundaries as overwhelming and immature.

A shift in the SEC’s regulatory approach will likely boost XRP and the broader digital asset ecosystem. The business has been plagued by legal ambiguity, with enforcement actions usually bringing clear guidance. Ripple, one of the most vocal opponents of this approach, has cautioned that the US’s lack of clear restrictions is driving innovation elsewhere.
