Key Takeaways

  • Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse claims he is ready to settle with the SEC, but puts out a condition
  • According to Garlinghouse, if the SEC brings clarity on the status of the XRP, they can talk about a settlement
  • Ripple’s native token, the XRP is 73% bellow its all time high of $3.40

YEREVAN (CoinChapter.com) — On Sept. 24, Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse claimed that Ripple will be willing to settle with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). However, Garlinghouse put up a contingency. 

In an interview with Charlie Gasparino and Liz Claman on Fox Business’s ‘The Claman Countdown,’ the Ripple CEO did not rule out the possibility of a settlement in the iconic Ripple Vs SEC case.

To Charlie Gasparino’s direct question if Ripple plans to settle, Garlinghouse sent the ball back into the SEC court.

“To the extend we can find a constructive way forward with the SEC, of ​​course, we want to find it. There is no scenario though that we are going to settle unless there is absolute certainty about what XRP is,” 

he said.

According to the Ripple CEO, it is very clear how Ripple and people are using XRP and the technologies. To his mind, they do not represent securities at all.

Moreover, Garlinghouse indicated that they do not intend to back down against the SEC as Coinbase did. The company will continue to “educate the market and the judge involved” in the case about Ripple and XRP.

Ripple CEO claims SEC is picking winners and losers

Drawing parallels between other companies in the cryptocurrency industry, Garlinghouse alleged unfair treatment by the Securities Exchange Commission. 

Ripple’s advantage over many of the other market players is that the XRP is fast and cost effecting in its transactions. If one were to treat XRP as a security, then the company would be subject to a whole lot of regulations and costs. 

“The magic of what is XRP is how incredibly fast and how incredibly cost-efficient it is for cross-border payments…If you start treating it as a security, the costs and speed change dramatically… That is an example where the SEC is in effect picking winners and losers of this new industry. That is not the role of the Government,” 

CEO Garlinghouse said. 

The topic revolved around former SEC Chair Jay Clayton.

Observers accused Clayton of fraud over his handling of various cryptocurrency issues while Chairman of the SEC. 

While Chairman, Clayton declared that Bitcoin /9BTC) did not qualify as a security, causing its value to rise. 

At the end of his tenure at the commission, Clayton filed the case against Ripple, causing XRP to fall by 60%. Upon leaving the SEC, Clayton joined One River Asset Management, a cryptocurrency hedge fund that is focused on Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH).

The case indicates a conflict of interest on behalf of the SEC as Clayton went after Ripple right before completing his tenure. 

Remarking on it, Garlinghouse agreed it raised suspicion. 

“The timing stinks. It’s not a good look,”

he added.

In 2018, the SEC had clarified, that Ethereum (ETH) was not a security. However, when it came to the XRP, their stance surprisingly differed.

XRP continues to struggle

Following the disputed lawsuit filed by the SEC against Ripple, its native asset, the XRP nosedived. Having shed over 60% at once, it sent the cryptocurrency industry into turmoil.

While the company claims to be fighting for the whole industry, the lawsuit has left traders in limbo. Thousands of XRP traders have now filed a lawsuit against the SEC for allowing XRP to trade for over 8 years before filing the lawsuit. As a result, they are now having to endure the losses of the SEC’s failure.

In the meantime, XRP is currently trading at $0.94128. That is a massive 73% low from its all-time high of $3.40.

With the XRP token struggling, the outcome of the law case will determine if Ripple can hope to remain relevant.

  7. Gram tu od mniej wiecej trzech miesiecy i nie ma co ukrywac spodziewalem sie gorzej. Rejestracja zajela mi z trzy minuty, weryfikacja zeszla dopiero jak chcialem wyplacic, i to mi nie przeszkadzalo. Minimalna wplata wynosi okolice 20 zl, wiec prog wejscia niski.

    Co do gier jest masa — gdzies ponad 3000 pozycji, glownie Pragmatic Play, Play’n GO i NetEnt, dorzucili tez Big Time Gaming i Betsoft. Osobiscie najwiecej gram w Gates of Olympus, od czasu do czasu wchodze w Book of Dead. Live to Evolution — Crazy Time, ruletka, blackjack, ludzie, nie automaty, kilka stolow jest po polsku.

    Powitalny pakiet wyglada tak: 100% do 4000 zl plus 200 free spinow. Wagering czterdziestokrotny, czyli nic nadzwyczajnego — da sie wyrobic, ale bez przesady. Nowe kody zerkam sobie na [url=https://inaust.org]vox casino bonus kod[/url] przed sama wplata. Ludzie szukaja tez wersji bez wplaty ale polowa z tego co widze na grupach to sciema, wiec sprawdzajcie zrodlo.

    Kasa wychodzi — tu bez fajerwerkow. Blik i karty szly do doby, Skrill i Neteller praktycznie od razu, Bitcoin najszybciej. Ale raz czekalem trzy dni bo poprosili o dokument a support mielil godzinami. To mnie najbardziej wkurzylo.

    Czat jest calodobowy, w naszym jezyku — raz odpowiadaja w minute, raz po kwadransie. Dedykowanej apki brak, ale wersja mobilna smiga bez zaciec na moim starym Androidzie. Licencja Curacao, czyli nie Malta, ale u mnie nic nie zginelo. Dla kogos z PL — jest przyzwoicie, tylko regulamin bonusu przeczytajcie, bo tam diabel tkwi.

  8. So I’ve been messing around on Craybet for like a couple months and wanted to share what I think because there’s not a ton of talk about this place on here. I signed up randomly one night and signing up took maybe a couple minutes. Starting deposit was $10 which is about what you’d expect. I grabbed a welcome bonus — matched my first deposit 100% up to 500 plus fifty free spins on Sweet Bonanza. Wagering was 35 times the bonus which could be lower but it’s manageable.

    The game library is bigger than I expected. There’s stuff from Pragmatic Play, Evolution, and Play’n GO — so like Book of Dead, Gonzo’s Quest, that kind of thing. I’d guess maybe 2000 games including table games. Live casino is powered by Evolution which is quality — tried roulette and Lightning Roulette with real dealers and it worked great.

    Now the one thing that annoyed me a little was how long cashouts take. Tried cashing out with Bitcoin and it took almost two days for my first withdrawal. After that though it was faster. They accept credit cards, e-wallets like Skrill and Neteller, and BTC which is most bases. You can look at the full bonus details on svnewtech if you’re interested.

    Using Craybet from my iPhone worked better than expected. I didn’t find a native app though the browser version loads fast and all the games load without issues. Played Book of Dead in bed and no lag or glitches.

    Customer service on Craybet has been decent — live chat that gets you a person in under five minutes most times. Had to ask about a pending withdrawal and they sorted it within hours. Licensing is Curacao-based from what I can tell which is standard for US-friendly sites. Wouldn’t say it’s perfect — promo codes seem rare — but for what it is I’m still using it.

  9. Been playing on Craybet for like six weeks or so and wanted to share what I think because there’s not much discussion about them on here. Registered after seeing an ad and the whole process was like 90 seconds. Starting deposit was $10 and that’s about what you’d expect. Got a welcome bonus — 100 percent match to $500 plus 50 free spins on Gates of Olympus. Playthrough requirements were 35x which could be lower but I’ve dealt with worse.

    Their slots catalog is honestly pretty solid. There’s games from Pragmatic Play, NetEnt, plus Microgaming — meaning Book of Dead, Starburst, the usual heavy hitters. Somewhere around a couple thousand titles including table games. Live casino runs on Evolution which is quality — played some baccarat and Crazy Time with real dealers and had no complaints.

    Tbh the thing I wasn’t thrilled about was payout speed. Withdrew via Visa and waited almost two days the first time. After that though things sped up. They accept Visa, Mastercard, e-wallets like Skrill and Neteller, and BTC so that covers pretty much everything you’d want. You can look at what they’ve got going on over at Craybet to see for yourself.

    Mobile experience on Craybet on my phone is actually smooth. I didn’t find a native app but the web app runs well and everything works no problem. Played some slots on my commute and didn’t notice any problems.

    Support at Craybet is decent — they have live chat that gets you a person in under five minutes when I’ve used it. I contacted them about my verification docs and they sorted it within hours. Not sure about operating under a Curacao license and that’s typical of platforms like this. It’s not flawless — wish they had more payment options — but as a daily player it does the job for me.

  10. So I’ve been using Craybet for roughly two months now and thought I’d throw out what I think since I haven’t seen many posts about this place on here. Registered on a whim and the whole process took maybe a couple minutes. Starting deposit was $10 which is pretty standard. Got a sign-up bonus — 100% up to $500 plus 50 free spins on Sweet Bonanza. Rollover is 35x which isn’t amazing but it’s manageable.

    The game library is decent honestly. There’s stuff from Pragmatic Play, NetEnt, and Big Time Gaming — meaning Book of Dead, Gonzo’s Quest, that kind of thing. Probably close to 1500-2000 slots when you add it all up. Live dealer stuff is powered by Evolution which is quality — played some baccarat and Crazy Time with real dealers and it worked great.

    Now the one thing that kinda bugged me was payout speed. Withdrew via Skrill and it took like a day and a half for my first withdrawal. Second time around it dropped to like 24 hours. They accept credit cards, e-wallets like Skrill and Neteller, Bitcoin so that covers most bases. You can look at their current offers at Craybet before you sign up.

    Mobile experience on Craybet on my phone is actually smooth. There’s no app to download but the web app loads fast and slots and live games work fine. Played a few sessions in bed and didn’t notice any lag or glitches.

    Customer service on Craybet is okay — there’s a chat widget and someone actually responds in under five minutes when I’ve used it. Reached out once about a bonus that didn’t credit and they sorted it within hours. Licensing is operating under a Curacao license and that’s what most US-friendly sites. Not everything is amazing — the bonus wagering could be lower — but for what it is it does the job for me.
