There’s been no rest for Ripple or the XRP token this week.
Following the latest development in Ripple's court case with the SEC, XRP has plummeted 4.6% over the past 24 hours, according to CoinGecko. It's now trading at $0.50, five cents lower than when the Hinman documents were finally released yesterday.
Ripple has been in a legal battle with the SEC, since 2020, due to allegedly selling unregistered securities.
A vital element of the case is a 2018 speech by former SEC Director Bill Hinman stating that Ethereum (ETH) shouldn’t be considered a security as it was “sufficiently decentralized."
Ripple claimed that this speech caused confusion when they were sued for selling an unregistered security. The lawsuit alleges that since 2013, Ripple has raised $1.3 billion in XRP, a token that the Commission claims qualify as a security.
As part of the ongoing court battle, Ripple has sought the release of the so-called Hinman documents as part of its case, arguing that his claims may help to lift that label.
After much legal wrangling, Ripple shared the highly anticipated contents of former Securities and Exchange Commission director William Hinman’s speech. Rather than a smoking gun, observers suggest that the emails reveal little in the way of new information that can help Ripple in its lawsuit against the SEC. The Hinman emails include exchanges between Hinman and members of the SEC staff in preparation for a June 14, 2018 speech where he talked about how different digital assets might be regulat...
Ripple also filed for emails surrounding the speech to be released to clarify how the former director came to his conclusion. While it is maintained the speech reflected Hinman's personal opinions, the emails were released yesterday.
XRP jumped almost 6% immediately after the release of these emails.
However, sentiment soon changed as the chief legal officer at Ripple, Stuart Alderoty, claimed that Hinman “invented factors” and ignored multiple warnings that the speech contained “made-up analysis with no basis in law.”
Alderoty then urged that the former SEC director is investigated after the speech is removed from the website.
12/So what should happen now? First, remove the speech immediately from the SEC’s website…

Hinman allegedly ignored internal concerns surrounding his speech and created "great confusion," according to Alderoty.
Unfortunately for XRP holders, that price jump from the email release has since all been wiped out.

Livestreaming with an attached meme coin was popularized this year after a mom promised sexual acts if her apparent son’s meme coin, called LiveMom, hit specific market caps. Despite promising to pour milk over her “36DDs,” the same ones her son allegedly “actually suckled on,” the pair ghosted with nothing really crazy going down. But clearly, some degens saw the viral sensation this became and tried to capitalize on it. Quickly, a flurry of copycat tokens launched, including LiveSis, countles...
Top college football prospect Matai Tagoa’i is set to join football stars like Russell Okung, Odell Beckham Jr., and Trevor Lawrence by receiving his compensation in Bitcoin.

The world’s largest asset manager BlackRock just debuted a new advertisement proselytizing the virtues of Bitcoin, but rather than cheer on the Bitcoin ETF issuer for its efforts, Bitcoiners aren’t happy. The video, which is housed on the iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) ETF page on BlackRock’s website, spends three minutes walking viewers through the evolution of money and key fundamentals of Bitcoin. One of those fundamentals is Bitcoin’s 21 million fixed token supply. While the video explains t...
