โ€œOur case and the decision rendered by our judge [Torres] will provide comfort to other judges that the SEC is just misguided.โ€ - @s_alderoty The @Ripple GC is not wrong. Every judge thus far thatโ€™s interacted with the SEC, with the exception of the @LBRYcom Judge, has chastised the SEC regarding its positions on Crypto. If you read the November 21, 2022 hearing transcript, even the LBRY judge became very frustrated with the SEC regarding digital assets.
SEC appeal could amplify Ripple win, says Ripple Labs legal chief. Stuart Alderoty says that an appeal by the Securities and Exchange Commission could see Ripple consolidate its victory over the regulator even further. cointelegraph.com/news/sec-aโ€ฆ

So, the @SECGov .... 1) Met with @FTX repeatedly and failed to detect any fraud or prevent its harm to investors and customers. 2) Failed to prevent @CelsiusNetwork 3) Failed to prevent @terra_money 4) Destroyed @LBRYcom and harmed $LBC holders 5) Lost the @Ripple case. Not a record to be proud of, @GaryGensler.

New Guardian hit piece on LBRY and myself has everything makes modern journalism despicable: Unnamed "experts" laundering claims into "facts", making everything about their pet hate cause, and trivial factual errors Though I do appreciate them including some of my great tweets

You are liars, guardians of the regime. No fraud was alleged or found. If you read the ruling or the previous transcripts this is crystal clear, you made up a slanderous headline and trivially falsifiable โ€˜factsโ€™ because you are motivated by hate. Retract this story.

Look at footnote 16. Judge Torres cites the January 30 hearing in the @LBRYcom that I appeared as Counsel for @naomibrockwell and argued that the judge must clarify that his ruling does not apply to secondary market sales. Judge Torres cites the page where the LBRY Judge promises to clarify that his ruling doesnโ€™t apply to secondary market sales. When someone asked if Judge Torres was paying attention to the LBRY case I said โ€œOf course she is.โ€ Although the Judge declined to do as he promised me on the record we made our point. Thatโ€™s why we fight every battle.

The Ripple case is a monumental development in establishing that a token is separate and distinct from an investment contract it may or may not be part of. Now, letโ€™s make it law. ๐Ÿ‘‡

The final judgement in SEC vs LBRY is out. In accordance with the court's order and our promises, we expect to spend the next several months winding LBRY Inc. down entirely. As to what happens to LBRY from here, well, that's up to you.

NBTV is so grateful to the team at @LBRYcom for giving us a decentralized, censorship-resistant home for our content. We've spent years growing a community of 71k subs there. The SEC has shut down LBRY Inc. to "protect consumers". Just who exactly is being protected?

No help to the market from this decision on whether the LBC token itself is a security. The judge sidestepped the issue & didnโ€™t entertain the major questions doctrine. The whole case achieved nothing except harm to one company & its employees. So much for clarity through courts.

All I've ever wanted to do is follow the law. No one at the SEC, nor the federal judge himself, can tell me what the law allows and doesn't allow. I'd respect the American government if it had a rule of law. It does not, so I don't and won't respect it, nor will I apologize.

In @LBRYcom, Judge Barbadoro stated he believed the SEC was litigating secondary market sales - independent of @Ripple. Regardless, secondary sales are front and center in SEC ๐Ÿ†š @coinbase. Join me and @NYcryptolawyer and others tomorrow at 11 am EST. xitter.cf/i/spaces/1RDxlaPrOXNKL

The @SECGov has chosen to sue @Gemini, @coinbase, and @krakenfx for not complying with securities laws and yet at the same time has approved @PrometheumInc. Here are some highlights that set Prometheum apart: -Failed to launch a product in 6 years -Hired multiple former SEC and FINRA staff -Read @GaryGensler and @SenWarren talking points from script at a Congressional hearing -Hired a Chief Technology officer who is an independent contractor consultant with zero Internet presence who lives in the Isle of Man And that folks has made all the difference. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคก
1/23 Hoooooo baby this Prometheum story gets even better. So they started in 2017 when they filled their Reg A+ and aimed to raise $50M. But how did these random lawyers supposedly get approval from the SEC and FINRA?
