US Congressman Criticizes the SEC Chairman’s Approach to Cryptocurrencies and Highlights Ripple’s Success
US Congressman Ritchie Torres accused SEC Chairman Gary Gensler of unjust attacks on cryptocurrencies. Torres particularly referenced the recent victory of Ripple Labs and urged Gensler to acknowledge the clarity provided by the court ruling.
The congressman believes that the SEC should focus on malicious actors involved in fraud and market manipulation, rather than adopting a general approach toward digital assets unrelated to security offerings.
Torres applauded Judge Analisa Torres for making a distinction between securities and commodities, naming it the “Torres Doctrine” as a sign of respect. He argues that the SEC does not have the authority to regulate digital assets that are not associated with a genuine security offering.
Majority Leader of the Democratic Party Tom Emmer described Ripple Labs’ partial victory on July 14 as a “historic development” and suggested that it should be enshrined in laws.
Meanwhile, Senator Torres requested an investigation by the SEC into Elon Musk’s relationship with Tesla and Twitter, leading to further scrutiny in the crypto markets. Differing opinions on the case between Ripple Labs and the SEC have impacted the movement of BTC.
