Speaker Lineup and Event Details

Ripple’s recent legal triumph and latest advancements.
Following a significant victory against the SEC, Ripple plans to introduce a stablecoin, Ripple USD (RLUSD), tied to the US dollar’s value. This asset aims to simplify global transactions and boost liquidity for key trading pairs on specific exchanges. It will be accessible on the XRP Ledger and Ethereum platforms.
Ripple’s legal disputes with the SEC continue, with RLUSD classified as an unregistered cryptocurrency. Despite a $125 million penalty, much lower than the original demand of $2 billion, Ripple’s Chief Legal Officer, Stuart Alderoty, views the ruling as a minor triumph. Although an SEC appeal is possible, the company sees the recent ruling as a positive outcome.
This forthcoming Ripple Swell event and ongoing legal developments will likely influence the cryptocurrency and financial technology sectors. As the event approaches, participants and observers anticipate further details and announcements that may shape the future trajectory of Ripple and its operations within the industry.
