As the high-stakes legal battle between Ripple and the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) approaches its summary judgment, legal experts are speculating about the potential outcome. Stuart Alderoty, chief legal officer of Ripple, recently shared a significant development on Twitter that could potentially reshape the interpretation of securities laws in the digital age. Alderoty highlighted a recent Twitter opinion by the Supreme Court, emphasizing the crucial role of adapting legal factors from previous cases to suit the evolving landscape of the new world. This recognition aligns with Ripple’s central argument, asserting that the Howey test and its accompanying statute should be interpreted within the common law framework. Additionally, the unsealing of the Hinman documents, which provide insight into how the regulator initially categorized cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin and Ethereum as securities, is set to take place on June 6.
