Ripple CEO predicts SEC’s defeat, citing legitimate setbacks.

Garlinghouse compares the XRP case to potential Ethereum regulation.

Coinbase’s CLO challenges the SEC and emphasizes regulatory clarity.

In response to Coinbase’s CLO, Paul Grewal’s take on the SEC’s investigation into Ethereum, the CEO of Ripple makes a statement. In detail, Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse predicted that the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) would lose the “war” against Ethereum (ETH).

As we can see from the tweet above, Garlighouse is certain that the SEC will lose its battle against Ethereum much like how it lost its battle with Ripple’s XRP. He says the SEC continues to make the same mistakes.

Garlinghouse’s later comments propose he sees similarities between the SEC’s fizzled endeavor to classify XRP as security and its potential move to do the same with Ethereum.
