Coinbase, a major player in the cryptocurrency space, is currently embroiled in a legal battle with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). According to lawyer John E. Deaton, who is known for his pro-XRP stance, the SEC may be on the brink of a major defeat. Deaton believes that Coinbase’s chances of success in its motion for dismissal are now at 50%, a significant increase from the 10% success probability usually associated with such motions.Paul Grewal, Coinbase’s Chief Legal Officer, has challenged the SEC’s stance, arguing that the assets on Coinbase’s platform are beyond the SEC’s purview. He has pointed to recent court rulings that have affirmed that assets like those on Coinbase do not qualify as securities. Grewal has also referred to the “Stand With Crypto” campaign in Washington DC, which was initiated by over 40 crypto-based entities and petitioned for regulations that balance innovation and consumer protection.The SEC’s recent stumble in the Ripple litigation, where US District Court Judge Analisa Torres overruled the SEC’s interlocutory appeal, has further highlighted the lack of clear legal questions and grounds for varied opinions. As the legal landscape continues to evolve, XRP is currently trading at $0.52975.
