Ripple Considers IPO Outside US in Response to SECโs โHostileโ Stance
๐บ๐ธ Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse has revealed that the company explored IPO options outside the United States, attributing this decision to a challenging relationship with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
๐ต Speaking at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, Garlinghouse expressed concerns about the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commissionโs stance. Despite Rippleโs interest in going public, the firm has temporarily shelved its IPO plans amidst the ongoing legal battle with the SEC.
๐ต โIn the United States, trying to go public with a very hostile regulator thatโs approved your S-1, that doesnโt sound like a lot of fun to me,โ said Garlinghouse. You know, Coinbase obviously had their S-1 approved and now the SEC is suing them for doing things that were outlined in their S-1.โ
๐ฆ โAnd I think heโs not acting in the interests of the citizenry, heโs not acting in the interests of the long-term growth of the economy, and I donโt understand it,โ said Garlinghouse. โI think at some point there will be a new chair of the SEC, and I think that will be a good thing for the American people.โ

Binance and SEC Clash Over Evidence Production and Witness Depositions in Ongoing Legal Battle
๐ถ The legal battle between Binance and the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) continues to intensify as court documents shed light on the clash over evidence production and witness depositions in the SECโs case against the leading cryptocurrency exchange.
๐ฅ According to a joint status report filed on January 25, the SEC alleges that BAM Trading Services, the parent company of Binance.US, has not fully complied with its information requests. The regulatory body seeks detailed insights into the custody and liquidity of assets, expressing concerns that Binance US might have undisclosed control mechanisms over customer funds, reminiscent of the FTX scandal.
๐ถ BAMโs attorneys vehemently refute these allegations, asserting that the company has adhered to all document production requirements stipulated in the consent order and the expedited recovery request. They argue that the SECโs methods, including issuing a Temporary Restraining Order (TRO) and pursuing expedited discovery, have imposed an undue burden on BAM.

Bitcoin Rockets Past $46,000 as ETFs Boost Investor Confidence
๐ Bitcoin (BTC) is on a meteoric rise, smashing through the $46,000 barrier and reaching its highest point in a month. The cryptocurrency's surge can be attributed to steady inflows into US-based funds and the buzz surrounding April's halving event. With a 7.3% gain over the past week, BTC is now trading at around $46,246.
๐ผ The introduction of new spot Bitcoin ETFs has sparked significant interest, with an impressive streak of 10 consecutive days of net inflows. This influx of capital has pushed the total to a staggering $8 billion this week, highlighting the strong demand from investors.
โ
Notably, two major players in the financial world have made their mark in the crypto space. BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) secured the eighth spot on Morningstar's list with a whopping $2.6 billion in net flows, while Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin ETF (FBTC) claimed the tenth spot with $2.2 billion.
