XRP Ledger Architect Slams SEC for Lack of Clarity on Crypto Regulations

The XRP Ledger architect recently took to Twitter to express his disapproval of the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) lack of clear guidelines on cryptocurrency regulation. This comes after Coinbase’s chief legal officer, Paul Grewal, stated that the industry needs reasonable rules from the SEC, and that Coinbase is more than willing to comply with them.

In response to Grewal’s statement, the architect criticized the SEC’s unfair and unreasonable engagement with digital assets. He argued that the agency should focus on rulemaking and legislation as opposed to enforcement actions, which would provide better clarity for the industry.

The architect’s comments were made after receiving a Wells notice, a formal notification that provides an opportunity to respond to allegations before a regulatory agency decides to pursue legal action.

Coinbase, on the other hand, expressed confidence in the legality of their assets and services, and is open to a legal process to provide clarity on the matter. However, Grewal stressed the importance of the SEC providing clear and reasonable rules, which would be more beneficial for the industry as a whole.

As the crypto industry continues to grow and gain mainstream acceptance, regulatory agencies like the SEC face the challenge of keeping up with the rapidly changing landscape. It remains to be seen whether the agency will provide the much-needed clarity and guidance that the industry seeks.

In the meantime, industry leaders like Coinbase and the XRP Ledger architect will continue to advocate for clearer regulations and work towards creating a more stable and sustainable future for digital assets.
