During the conversation, Vandell Aljarrah, one of the interviewers, speculated on the uninterrupted existence of Ripple and XRP, emphasizing that every bank will eventually adopt the innovative payments network. This perspective aligns with the increasing adoption and recognition Ripple has been achieving in the financial industry.
A Partial Win in the Legal Battle
Ripple made significant strides in its legal battle against the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) when Judge Analisa Torres ruled in July that XRP is not a security.
While this ruling marked a partial victory for Ripple, the case continues as the SEC filed an interlocutory appeal in response to the decision. However, Versan Aljarrah, the other interviewer, confidently asserted that he believes the case would ultimately result in a complete victory for Ripple.
Ripple Rising to the Level of Amazon, Google, and Apple
Versan further suggested that regulators must strike a balance between upholding the integrity and supporting disruptive technologies. With innovation shaping the future of the financial landscape, finding this equilibrium becomes crucial. The hope is that regulatory entities like the SEC will adapt to foster innovation while maintaining investor protection.
Echoing Versan’s sentiment, Clive Thompson expressed his aspiration for Ripple to reach the heights of universally recognized tech giants such as Amazon, Google, and Apple. He remarked that if Ripple were to achieve such stature, it would become too significant for the SEC to challenge. Thompson highlighted the challenges faced by the cryptocurrency sector due to regulatory uncertainties and the need for clearer guidelines from the SEC.

A Positive Outlook for Ripple’s Triumph
Thompson firmly supported Judge Torres’s ruling that XRP is not a security. With this in mind, he believes that Ripple will emerge as the overall winner, despite the SEC’s appeal. The outcome of the case will likely have a profound impact on the future of Ripple and the wider cryptocurrency industry as it seeks regulatory clarity.
In this ever-evolving landscape, the possibilities for Ripple are immense. As Clive Thompson and other industry insiders continuously emphasize, Ripple’s potential to become a global powerhouse mirrors the trajectory of the tech behemoths that now dominate various sectors. Only time will tell if Ripple can transcend its current status and reshape the financial world.
