Amid the ongoing lawsuit with the U.S. Commission de Sécurité et d'Echanges (SECONDE), Ripple’s legal team reportedly said that they have no plans to settle with the securities watchdog. They are confident that SEC Chairman Gary Gensler will be convinced that pursuing the case is picking winners and losers in the crypto business to the detriment of innovation.

No Plans to Settle With SEC, Says Ripple’s Legal Team
Ripple’s legal team told Fox Business that it has no plans to settle the lawsuit with the U.S. Commission de Sécurité et d'Echanges (SECONDE), Charles Gasparino reported. He tweeté Friday:
Ripple’s legal team tell Fox Business they have no plans to settle with SEC over lawsuit on XRP, confident they can show Gary Gensler in pursuing the case is picking winners and losers in the crypto business to the detriment of innovation.
La seconde sued Laboratoires d'ondulation, its CEO Brad Garlinghouse, and co-founder Chris Larsen in December last year over the sale of XRP.
In January, Garlinghouse was asked why Ripple did not settle with the SEC. He replied: “Can’t get into specifics, but know we tried — and will continue to try with the new administration — to resolve this in a way so the XRP community can continue innovating, consumers are protected and orderly markets are preserved.”
Ripple and XRP supporters hope that the new SEC chairman, Gary Gensler, who taught crypto at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (AVEC), would throw out the XRP lawsuit. They believe that there was a conflict of interest with former SEC Chairman Jay Clayton. In August, a government watchdog began investigating circumstances surrounding the XRP lawsuit involving Clayton and senior SEC official William Hinman.
Gensler has shown that he recognizes innovation. During a U.S. Senate Banking Committee hearing La semaine dernière, the pro-bitcoin Senator Cynthia Lummis asked him: “Do you support responsible innovation?” Gensler immediately replied: “Oh my gosh, yes. I mean it’s brought us these lights in the room. It’s brought us this ability to have a hybrid hearing with your fellow members. I mean innovation is what supports access, economic activity, and give so much of us better opportunities in life.”
The SEC chairman has also said that Satoshi Nakamoto’s innovation is real. “His innovation spurred the development of crypto assets and the underlying blockchain technology,” Gensler described, adding that “it has been and could continue to be a catalyst for change in the fields of finance and money.”
