Why Ripple Faced the SEC

In 2020, Ripple had a problem. The SEC accused them of trading unregistered securities. This meant breaking some laws. Many individuals didn’t agree. They filed a Motion to Intervene to defend XRP. 12,600 investors wanted to become Defendants. This was a big deal. Judge Torres said it was a first.

The fact that 12,600 individual investors felt so strong about the injustice being served by the SEC, that they petitioned a Federal Judge to become Defendants, was not lost on Judge Torres, considering she took note that it had never been done.
