However, the regulator has not found much success in pursuing legal action against legitimate entities.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, courts have ruled against the SEC in recent months in landmark lawsuits involving Grayscale Investments and Ripple. The former won its case against the SEC in October, with the presiding judge ruling that the regulator must scrap its rejection of Grayscale's spot Bitcoin ETF.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Ripple is closing in on a settlement with the watchdog after the court ruled that most XRP sales did not violate securities laws as they do not constitute securities sales. Essentially, the judge ruled that XRP was not a security when traded on the secondary market.<\/p>\n<p>Lawyers expect the case will continue to go in Ripple's favor, while the Grayscale win will likely lead to approvals of spot Bitcoin ETFs, including those submitted by TradFi giants like BlackRock and Valkyrie.<\/p>\n<p>These ETFs are predicted to set the foundation for institutional money to begin flowing into the digital asset industry.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In a Nov. 6 speech, Republican SEC Commissioner Mark Uyeda said the watchdog needs to reassess its approach to the crypto industry.
