The Third Circuit Court has partially ruled in favor of Coinbase in its regulatory dispute with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). This decision could set a precedent for the ongoing case between Ripple 
$2 and the SEC, potentially leading to clearer regulations regarding cryptocurrency.
Ruling Against the SEC
The Third Circuit determined that the SEC’s rejection of Coinbase’s regulatory discussions was unjust. The appellate court has called for the regulatory body to provide clear guidelines and explanations concerning the classification of crypto assets as securities.
James Murphy emphasized that the SEC should await Congress to pass legislation defining market structures before establishing any new rules regarding cryptocurrency. This highlights the need for a more structured regulatory framework.
Expectations in the Ripple and SEC Case
Legal experts are particularly interested in how Coinbase’s partial victory will influence the Ripple case. The forthcoming SEC opening brief is anticipated to significantly impact the direction of this high-profile litigation.
Gary Gensler has been discussing the risks associated with cryptocurrencies as he nears the end of his term. However, the next SEC chair is expected to be more favorable towards digital currencies, which may ease regulatory pressures. Furthermore, the ongoing appeals process for XRP Coin remains a critical issue that needs resolution.
The outcome of the Ripple versus SEC case could represent a crucial turning point in the regulation of the cryptocurrency market.
