Ripple Vs. SEC: Legal Expert Challenges Gensler’s Knowledge On What Is A Security
Pro-XRP legal expert John Deaton has again come for the US Securities and Commission’s (SEC) Chairman Gary Gensler in its battle against Ripple. This time, he questions Gensler’s competence and calls for his dismissal from the Commission.

He further stated that Gensler continues to feign ignorance that securities laws cannot apply to the “purchase of an asset for non-investment use cases.” Deaton was reacting to an old clip where Gensler mentioned that Ether had transformed from a security to a non-security as it had become more decentralized. The lawyer’s comments come amid the ETH Gate saga and the long-running legal battle between Ripple and the SEC. The SEC is said to have given Ethereum a ‘regulatory free pass’ while alleging that ...
