Ripple's Chief Legal Officer, Stuart Alderoty, has criticized the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for boasting about record fines and enforcement actions. Alderoty argues that these actions reflect a failure in oversight and are not a true measure of success. He likens the SEC's claims to a professor bragging about high failure rates and cheating scandals. Investors have also expressed dissatisfaction, labeling SEC Chair Gary Gensler as ineffective. In other news, Ripple has launched its first tokenized money market fund in collaboration with UK asset manager abrdn and crypto exchange Archax, aiming to improve financial accessibility and liquidity. Additionally, $XRP futures open interest has surpassed $2.50 billion, indicating increased trader activity, while whale accumulation continues, suggesting potential for a price rally.
