Netburn Hearing Reaction and More : AMA with John Deaton
SAVE THE DATE! JOHN DEATON LIVE FROM NYC
Tuesday, June 7 at 7pm ET (11pm UTC)
After Judge Netburn's hearing, John will share his reaction & take your questions live on #CryptoLawTV! ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tNwE4jXoFI8
There has been increased talk and speculation recently in the crypto community about a possible settlement in the SEC v. Ripple case. That includes a bold prediction by Ben Armstrong (BitBoy_Crypto on YouTube) that a settlement is a "done deal" and will be announced by the end of September.
John Deaton gives us a wide-ranging reality check to help with all the confusion in this discussion, including:
- Is it possible that a settlement will happen soon? Is it likely?
- How do two sides reach a settlement in a case like this? How does it work?
- What could cause a settlement?
- What if Ripple's fair notice defense is stricken by the judge?
- What would a settlement mean to digital asset holders, both XRP holders/users and everyone else?
- And what role could the Motion to Intervene by XRP holders play in a settlement?

Ever since the decision came out on SEC v. Ripple on July 13, 2023, there have been many statements, tweets, op-eds and interviews that reflect disinformation and confirmation bias rather than sound legal analysis. John Deaton, the founder and host of #CryptoLawTV, welcomes attorney Lewis Cohen of DLx Law to get right down to the facts on what the ruling says, what it doesn't say, and the likelihood of it surviving appellate scrutiny.

John Deaton, the founder and host of #CryptoLawTV, gives an update on the War on Crypto and reports on testimony he provided today to the Maine Senate Financial Services Committee in reference to legislation to give clarity for certain financial institutions to allow deposits in virtual currencies.
He warned the Maine legislators that their right and ability to even pass such legislation is under threat from the federal government's War on Crypto, and called on them to push back against the overreach of the Securities and Exchange Commission and its allies.

After a nine month fight with the SEC to obtain it through the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), John Deaton has obtained the full text of the letter sent on December 17, 2020, by former SEC Commissioner Joseph Grundfest (1986-1990) to all five commissioners of the SEC at the time as well as all the senior staff involved in the investigation of XRP and Ripple before filing the enforcement action less than a week later. In the letter, Grundfest warns them of the severe harm to innocent XRP holders that would result if they went ahead with what he said would be an unprecedented enforcement action. In short, they were warned - and they ignored the warnings.
In this video, John Deaton walks through the Grundfest letter, explaining all the specific warnings that the former commissioner issued to the SEC, and how they all came true after the Ripple lawsuit was filed. It's shocking how devastating the SEC's actions have been towards the people that it is sworn to protect and defend. Grundfest saw it coming.
