I am now part of a class-action lawsuit! Go me! I’m holding XRP Ripple from $0.47 or so in two trades. I’m actually in the second part of a trading plan with this crypto. My first target being $0.749 at which point I will set a trailing stop halfway up the wedge as I believe its potential is huge. Possibly even up to the heady heights of $3/$4 this year. (this month?).
If there is even more of a hint of the class action by the SEC being dropped and exchanges taking the currency back the currency will shoot up but it could retrace quite quickly so I’m watching carefully.
I do recommend if you are holding XRP/Ripple to visit Crypto Law and join the class action law-suit against the SEC.
Of course, this is much more to me about freedom than making a profit. In my view, the SEC have overstepped their mark and jurisdiction. I still hold that all cryptos that are blockchain-based are actually out of their jurisdiction as the data is decentralized and not in one place, in particular, it’s everywhere and nowhere like some kind of mysterious magic. However, I can understand the argument that Ripple is owned by a private company and that does impact my favour of it against things like Bitcoin which is owned by everyone… and no one.
Viva la crypto!

A Letter to Judge Torres — signed by 10,000, and counting…
Posted on March 19, 2021
By John E. Deaton, Founder and Host of CryptoLaw.
Today I filed a pre-motion letter to Judge Analisa Torres to share the reasons why we are asking to intervene in the SEC v. Ripple case. Among other topics, the letter addresses why we should be allowed to intervene in the case and establish our interests in its ultimate result.
Allowing us to intervene is appropriate because neither party in the case currently represents the holders and users of XRP. A key aspect of Ripple’s defense will be to demonstrate that they have no duty or obligation to XRP holders, and given the SEC’s actions thus far, we can’t expect it to even consider the interests of XRP holders.
However, whether we like it or not, we have been impacted by this SEC lawsuit and will certainly be impacted by the ultimate result.
If allowed to intervene, among critical interests, we will demonstrate that XRP is a government-recognized currency that is completely independent of Ripple. We will show how XRP is being used in the U.S. and around the world as a currency.
For example, six years ago, the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (“FinCEN”) entered into an agreement with Ripple that XRP would be considered a virtual currency and its use would be registered exclusively with FinCEN, not the SEC. Afterwards, foreign nations started agreeing with the U.S. government’s 2015 currency classification of XRP, and Japan, Switzerland, the U.K. and the UAE have all declared XRP is not a security. Since that 2015 designation as virtual currency, the use cases of XRP have exploded.
The number of XRP holders joining this effort is now over 10,000 and growing. We are determined to tell our story.
