The prominent Twitter user and crypto commentator, Ben Armstrong, popularly known as BitBoy, has recently mentioned a potential key ally that could help XRP against the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in the ongoing lawsuit. Recall that the SEC has been targeting XRP for some time now, claiming it is an unregistered security.
Ripple and XRP could welcome a new partner in the legal battle with the US Securities and Exchange Commission, Ben Armstrong stated.
BitBoy commented on Twitter, stating that Ripple and XRP could find an ally in Coinbase, the largest US-based crypto exchange that recently sued the SEC for not providing crypto regulatory clarity.

Recall that Stuart Alderoty and Paul Grewal, the chief legal officers of Coinbase and Ripple held a meeting a while back. Though the meeting details were not made available to the Public, both legal officers indicated they were happy to have met over the legal issues at hand.
Also, Alderoty, expressing his gratitude, revealed that Grewal had a nice time talking with Ripple’s legal team. This new development shows that the meeting between both attorneys is a professional one and not just a mere personal encounter.
The meeting held showed a positive alliance between both parties is imminent. Ben believes Coinbase would be a strong partner for XRP if such development is allowed to materialize.
Also, Deaton revealed in his latest tweet that to survive in the current cryptocurrency-hostile market, it is important to make “the enemy of my enemy my friend”
