XRP News: Why Did Ripple Submit An Additional Letter To Crypto Task Force?

The post XRP News: Why Did Ripple Submit An Additional Letter To Crypto Task Force? appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News Ripple’s Chief Legal Officer, Stuart Alderoty, took to X (formerly Twitter) today to share that Ripple has sent an additional letter to the U.S. SEC’s Crypto Task Force. The letter responds to a recent speech by SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce titled “New Paradigm,” where she raised an important question: When does a cryptocurrency stop being part of an investment contract and become just a digital asset? In their letter, Ripple thanked the SEC team for meeting with them on May 20, 2025, and offered further thoughts on the issue. Ripple argued that most cryptocurrencies traded today are not securities. They pointed to legal analysis from Lewis Cohen and others, which says that when crypto tokens are sold in secondary markets — like exchanges — they usually don’t meet the legal definition of a security. Today, @Ripple submitted an additional letter to the SEC’s Crypto Task Force addressing a key question from Commissioner Peirce’s “New Paradigm” speech: When does a digital asset separate from an investment contract? We appreciate the continued engagement with the Task Force.… — Stuart Alderoty (@s_alderoty) May 27, 2025 Ripple also opened up about last year’s court ruling by Judge Torres in the SEC’s lawsuit against Ripple. The judge decided that while some of Ripple’s early XRP sales to big investors counted as investment contracts, the XRP token itself is not a security when sold in secondary markets. Ripple acknowledged the SEC’s concern about bad actors misusing crypto markets but said it’s up to Congress, not the SEC, to change the laws. They warned against vague rules like deciding if a token is “fully functional” or “sufficiently decentralized” , as these can confuse the market. Instead, Ripple suggested a clearer legal framework. For example, if a crypto token was once sold as part of an investment contract, it should be considered separate from that contract when: Any promises made by the issuer to the original buyer have been fulfilled. The current holder has no legal rights to demand anything from the issuer. Ripple also proposed a safe harbor rule to protect honest crypto projects that are still developing, helping them avoid legal risks while following clear guidelines. Additionally, Ripple recommended using the maturity of a crypto network — how big and established it is — rather than vague ideas like decentralization, to decide whether it should still be regulated as a security. They suggested that tokens on open, permissionless networks with a large market value, operational for years, and without one party having control, should no longer fall under securities laws.
