Dogecoin (DOGE) Fan Elon Musk Beats the SEC – Hope for XRP?
The gripping story of Elon Musk’s famous Tesla 420 tweet finally comes close. In 2018, the CEO of Tesla and SpaceX was considering putting Tesla’s (TSLA) stock in private on the condition that the price rises to $420. Indeed, the tech mogul was close to achieving this goal, as $TSLA was trailing just $52 behind the goal.

Gary ‘Top Cop’ Gensler previously told NBC news he’s “particularly concerned about crypto,” despite also having to police stock markets and Wall Street. Interestingly, the head of The Securities and Exchange Commission also pointed out that he’s representing “the crypto investors that don’t have Lamborghinis,” as opposed to the crypto sharks lurking around Miami Beach in sports cars during the 2021 crypto boom. What SEC Chair Gary Gensler calls crypto exchanges pic.twitter.com/Cbqv5azzfg Following the news, Elon ‘The Dogefather’ Musk cheered on Twitter in such words: “Thank goodness, the wisdom of the people has prevailed!” The outcome of Musk VS. The SEC lawsuit also paints a bright picture for Ripple, battling the unregistered crypto securities case. On 22nd December 2022, Gary Gensler and his team slapped two of Ripple’s co-founders with a $1.3 billion lawsuit regarding selling unregistered XRP (XRP) crypto tokens. The lawsuit claims Ripple has been raising funds illegally to fund XRP since 2013. However, the community behind the #6 crypto by global market cap seems optimistic about the outcome, as Ripple lawyers claim to have made several breakthroughs. Ripple CTO David ‘JoelKatz’ Schwartz seems not to be bothered by the SEC, as he tweeted in response to Musk’s celebratory message: “I’m taking XRP private at $420. Funding secured.” Yes. I skipped lunch all last month to make it happen. At press time, the altcoin XRP (XRP) trades at $0.398489, according to CoinGecko. Dropping by 1.2% in the last 24 hours, but still recording a solid month with 15.5% gains in the last 30 days. Indeed, the OG altcoin has been around since 2012 and has maintained a relatively constant growth rate. Policies and regulations introduced by the SEC can increase crypto adoption but also can have a negative impact if regulated by old methods and a lack of knowledge of the field.
