- The decision to relist is based on Judge Torres’s ruling that “programmatic” sales of XRP, including sales on secondary markets like digital asset exchanges, are not securities transactions.
- Winklevoss-owned crypto exchange Gemini is also considering a relisting of XRP. Tyler Winklevoss said the ruling “highlights how the SEC is a failed institution.”
- The SEC alleged this was the case when it first charged Ripple with securities law violations in December 2020. Coinbase and other exchanges soon delisted XRP in response.
- Meanwhile, Coinbase stock (COIN) is up 24% on the day to $107,00, continuing a bullish trend after taking a firm defensive stance against its own SEC lawsuit last month.
- The lawsuit alleged that over a dozen coins trading on Coinbase’s platforms were securities and that its staking service was also a securities offering.
- Many of those coins are now rallying, including Cardano (ADA), Solana (SOL), and Polygon (MATIC), all of which are up over 20% on the day.
- Even Bitcoin – which the SEC had already labeled a non-security – tapped a yearly high on Thursday, rising 4% to $31,700.
- XRP has already risen 75% on the day, surpassing BNB as the fourth-largest crypto by market cap.
