XRP一度暴涨超20%,Ripple对SEC诉讼的又一次阶段性胜利

CoinGecko 行情显示,今日早些时候,XRP 在 0.5 美元附近价格突然开始迅速上涨,一度突破 0.62 美元,短时涨幅超 20%,目前暂报 0.607 美元,市值为 33,894,393,759 美元,排在加密货币第 7 名。并且显而易见的是,尽管过去几天比特币价格出现大幅回调,甚至一度跌破 49000 美元,但 XRP 相对于其他加密货币表现更为坚挺,随着比特币的反弹,其价格也有了不错的回升。那么,究竟是什么原因导致了今天 XRP 价格如此迅速地上涨呢?

原来,这次 XRP 价格的暴涨是在“美法官裁定 Ripple 向散户销售 XRP 未违反联邦证券法”后,Ripple 对 SEC 诉讼的又一次胜利。今日凌晨,Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse 在 X 发文表示:“SEC 要求我们支付 20 亿美元,法院认识到他们‘要价过高’,将其要求减少了约 94%。我们尊重法院的裁决,并明确继续发展我们的公司。这是 Ripple、行业和法治的胜利,SEC 对整个 XRP 社区的阻力已经消失。”

Ripple CEO:法官将 SEC 的罚款要求减少约 94%

法官裁定 SEC 对 XRP 的罚款要求减少约 94%使 SEC 在 XRP 社区中的阻力大幅减少,无论是Ripple 本身还是整个加密行业都是一件“大快人心”的事,本次法官的裁定结果也让 SEC 对 Ripple “漫长”的诉讼暂时告一段落。下面,Odaily星球日报带大家回顾 SEC 对 Ripple 诉讼中 Ripple 是如何一步步取得胜利。

漫长的诉讼:SEC 声称 Ripple 违规发行未经注册的证券

早在 2020 年 12 月 21 日,美国 SEC 就开始了对 Ripple Labs 的诉讼,声称 Ripple 违规发行未经注册的证券。此消息发布后,XRP 价格直接腰斩,从 0.58 美元跌至 0.21 美元,屋漏偏逢连夜雨,或受 SEC 诉讼消息影响,加密交易所 Coinbase 下架 XRP。至此 SEC 与 Ripple 之间的诉讼正式来开帷幕。

与此同时,Ripple CEOBrad Garlinghouse 否认了 SEC 的指控,并表示公司将拿起法律武器。之后,Brad Garlinghouse对 SEC 的做法提出质疑,认为该机构并未就将 XRP 归类为证券向他们发出公平通知。他们在给法院的信中表示,SEC 未能为加密公司提供明确的指导。

用法律手段反抗取到了一定效果,在 SEC 要求法官 Sarah Netburn 举行听证会上,Netburn 法官裁定 XRP 具有价值和实用性,这将其与比特币等加密货币区分开来。此次裁决意义重大,因为它强调了加密货币之间的法律差异,并为未来的资产分类和执法行动铺平了道路。

取得阶段性成功:XRP 本身不是证券

时间转眼来到 2023 年,自从 SEC 对其提起诉讼以来,Ripple 一直在全力应对这场官司。在 2023 年下半年,Brad Garlinghouse 就曾表示,公司已支付超过 2 亿美元的法律费用,并且假如 SEC 的诉讼最终上诉到最高法院,Ripple 也会与 SEC 抗争到底。

功夫不负有心人,同年 10 月 20 日,Ripple 宣布,美 SEC 已撤销对其首席执行官 Brad Garlinghouse 和执行主席 Chris Larsen 的所有指控。此前 Ripple 有两次成功,包括 2023 年 7 月的法院裁决宣布“XRP 本身不是证券”,以及 10 月的联邦法官决定驳回 SEC 的上诉请求。此消息发布后,XRP 24 小时上涨 7%。

但或许目前还不是真正庆祝的时候,加密分析师 Phyrex 于 X 平台发文表示:“首先需要明确的是,这项驳回是在双方都同意的情况下,由 SEC 申请的,也即是说 SEC 驳回了自己的申请……认为这就是 Ripple 的全面获胜,其实这并不对的,这仅仅是 SEC 放弃了对两位高管的起诉,该罚款还是要罚款的。”

再次取得阶段性成功:法官裁定 SEC 对 XRP 的罚款要求减少约 94% 

SEC 对 Ripple 的诉讼虽在“XRP 本身不是证券”上取得胜利,但巨额的罚款诉讼仍在进行。2024 年 3 月,美国 SEC 计划要求法官对 Ripple Labs 处以 20 亿美元罚款。Ripple 首席法律官 Stuart Alderoty 表示,Ripple 的回应将于下个月提交,但正如之前看到的那样,SEC 所发布的声明是虚假的、错误描述的和旨在误导的,SEC 并没有忠实地执行法律,而是一心想要惩罚和恐吓 Ripple 以及整个行业。

同年 5 月,据外媒报道,美国 SEC 在 5 月 7 日的修订救济措施回复简报中,将 Ripple 拟议稳定币描述为“未注册的加密资产”,并进一步证明,如果没有针对该公司的永久禁令,其将继续从事不受监管的活动。同时,SEC 还坚持要对 Ripple 寻求处以近 20 亿美元的重罚,以阻止该公司和其他效仿者。

但随后,Ripple 在一份“补充权威通知”中表示,监管机构提议的财务罚款不合理。该公司将 SEC 提议对其出售 XRP 给机构投资者的罚款 20 亿美元与对 Terraform Labs 的罚款进行了比较,认为其罚款应接近 1000 万美元

美 SEC 反驳了 Ripple Labs 最近提出的降低罚款的主张,并称其与 Terraform 案“没有可比性”。美 SEC 在致 Torres 法官的信中辩称,其与 Terraform 及其联合创始人 Do Kwon 达成的 45 亿美元和解包括 4.2 亿美元的民事罚款,是在该公司破产、同意向投资者返还资金并解雇“当时负责违规行为”高管的情况下达成的。SEC 表示,Ripple 认为 Terraform 的 4.2 亿美元民事罚款约为其“ 330 亿美元总销售额”的 1.27% ,但两者并不能相提并论,其补充说,它根据“违规行为的毛利润”来衡量 Terraform 的罚款,估计该罚款超过 35 亿美元,比例接近 12% 。其还认为,如果 Ripple 要求适用同样的比例,那么其民事罚款将达到 1.026 亿美元,“如此低的罚款不符合民事处罚法规的目的”。

直到今日,法官裁定 SEC 对 XRP 的罚款要求减少约 94% 使 SEC 在 XRP 社区中的阻力大幅减少,可以说是 Ripple 在与 SEC 漫长的诉讼中又一次胜利。或许,SEC 会再次提出诉讼反对罚款的大幅度减少,但不得不承认 Ripple 在对抗美 SEC 上作出了巨大贡献。

What is XRP 2.0

XRP 2.0: A New Frontier in the Cryptocurrency Landscape Introduction to XRP 2.0 In the ever-evolving realm of cryptocurrency, new projects continuously emerge, vying for attention and adoption. One such promising initiative is XRP 2.0, a novel cryptocurrency project designed to leverage advanced blockchain technology and robust encryption methodologies. While the name draws parallels with Ripple’s XRP, it’s crucial to note that XRP 2.0 operates independently, focusing on enhancing transaction security, privacy, and scalability. As the digital financial landscape increasingly embraces decentralized solutions, XRP 2.0 aims to contribute meaningfully to web3 and the overall expansion of crypto projects. What is XRP 2.0? At its core, XRP 2.0 is a cryptocurrency project that aims to create a secure and decentralized digital currency ecosystem. Its foundational technology integrates sophisticated blockchain principles with cutting-edge encryption techniques. The overarching goal of XRP 2.0 is to establish itself as a reliable and efficient platform enabling swift transaction execution while prioritizing enhanced privacy protections for its users. The project is promoted as a solution to many limitations faced by existing cryptocurrencies, proposing a system that can handle a higher volume of transactions with improved speed and privacy. This versatility positions XRP 2.0 as a significant contender in a marketplace riddled with various digital currencies. Who is the Creator of XRP 2.0? The identity of the creator behind XRP 2.0 has been flagged as ‘Wilbur.’ However, comprehensive details regarding Wilbur or their associated entity remain elusive. The anonymity of many cryptocurrency creators is not an uncommon phenomenon in the industry, often designed to maintain a degree of privacy and security. Who are the Investors of XRP 2.0? As of now, specific information related to the investment foundations or organizations supporting XRP 2.0 is not publicly available. In the cryptocurrency sector, the backing by reputed investors can significantly influence a project's credibility and success, yet the transparency regarding the financial supporters of XRP 2.0 has not been established. How Does XRP 2.0 Work? XRP 2.0 stands out by employing a combination of blockchain technology and advanced encryption algorithms that ensures secure and decentralized transactions. Its innovative structure includes unique features designed to foster user engagement and broaden functionalities beyond conventional cryptocurrency transactions. Among these features, XRP 2.0 incorporates AI-powered capabilities, such as text-to-image and text-to-speech functionalities. These additions are designed to enhance the interactive experience for users, promoting broader applicability across various sectors. By bridging technological advancements with user-centered design, XRP 2.0 aims to capture the attention of a diverse range of individuals and enterprises looking to integrate cryptocurrency solutions into their operational frameworks. Timeline of XRP 2.0 Understanding XRP 2.0 requires examining the milestones that have defined its journey thus far: July 23, 2023: XRP 2.0 is introduced as a novel cryptocurrency project, aiming to revolutionize secure and decentralized transaction capabilities in the blockchain domain. September 8, 2023: The launching of another project, XRP20, occurs, marking the emergence of an ERC-20 token on the Ethereum blockchain that remains unrelated to XRP 2.0. November 13, 2023: The XRP Ledger undergoes a significant update with the release of rippled server software version 2.0.0. It is essential to note that this development is disconnected from the XRP 2.0 cryptocurrency project. Key Points About XRP 2.0 To distill the essence of XRP 2.0, several critical factors emerge: Unique Features: The inclusion of features like AI-powered text-to-image and text-to-speech further diversifies the potential applications of XRP 2.0.

Conclusion XRP 2.0 represents an ambitious venture into the cryptocurrency sphere, aiming to offer a combination of security, privacy, and efficiency in digital transactions. By integrating sophisticated technologies and user-friendly features, the project sets out to broaden the horizons of what cryptocurrency can achieve in today's digital economy. While the anonymity of its creator and lack of disclosed investors might raise questions for some, XRP 2.0's focus on advanced functionalities and decentralisation enhances its appeal amidst an increasingly crowded crypto market. As the cryptocurrency landscape continues to evolve, XRP 2.0 may yet emerge as a pivotal player in the expansion of secure and scalable blockchain solutions.
