- The Bank of America shares concern over the recent XRP win.
- It believes the same impact may or may not go over with other altcoins.
- The XRP win only shows that not all crypto are securities with no rules on how to identify them.
Bank of America (BAC) raises concerns about the potential impact of the recent Ripple-SEC lawsuit ruling on the crypto industry. The bank emphasizes the need for a comprehensive regulatory framework to support mainstream adoption and institutional engagement in digital assets.
For years, the crypto industry has been pushing for clear regulations in the United States. Specifically, the SEC had maintained that existing securities laws were applicable to all cryptos.
However, the recent conclusion of the SEC vs. Ripple case brought a partial victory for Ripple and significant implications for the broader crypto sector. Contrary to the SEC’s previous ruling, the latest ruling clearly states how all cryptos are do not classify as securities.
While the ruling released Ripple’s XRP from suspicions of being a security, Bank of America highlights that it doesn’t provide clear guidance for the broader U.S. market. In detail, the unique nature of Ripple’s XRP offering and the complexities surrounding the ruling make it challenging to determine its full implications.
Although the ruling may not directly apply to other cryptos, it has raised questions about how they should be regulated. The bank acknowledges the distinction between trading blockchain-based cryptos and tokenized traditional assets like ETFs, repos, and gold. While rules and regulations for the latter are well-established, there is still a need for clarity regarding cryptos.
