According to attorney John Deaton, XRP community members were the first to call out the SEC's overreach. XRP holders have been warning relevant authorities and other crypto communities about the SEC's actions for the past two years.

Despite these warnings, many chose to side with the SEC against Ripple and XRP. Deaton urged crypto communities to stand against government overreach, even if it's aimed at a rival project. The US Chamber of Commerce has filed an amicus brief in the Coinbase v. SEC lawsuit, arguing that the SEC is destabilizing the digital asset regulatory environment and violating constitutional due process.
