Referencing a Forbes <a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/roslynlayton\/2021\/08\/30\/the-crypto-uprising-the-sec-didnt-see-coming\/\">article<\/a> titled \u201cThe crypto uprising the SEC didn\u2019t see coming,\u201d he tweeted:<\/p>\n<p>The Ripple case seems to be going better than expected. Meanwhile, the SEC is realizing that attacking crypto is politically unpopular (because it harms consumers).<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe irony is that the people they are supposedly protecting are the ones attacking them,\u201d the Coinbase boss added.<\/p>\n<p>Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse has made a similar statement regarding the SEC. Noting that the regulator is refusing to provide a clear framework for crypto, he <a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/ripple-ceo-sec-gives-no-clear-framework-for-crypto-xrp-lawsuit\/\">said<\/a>: \u201cInstead of working with the industry, the SEC is using their meetings with companies as lead generation for their enforcement actions.\u201d He added that many <a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/markets.bitcoin.com\/crypto\/XRP\">XRP<\/a> holders have filed a class-action lawsuit against the SEC, emphasizing, \u201cThese are the exact people the SEC is supposed to be protecting.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Several people on Twitter expressed surprise to see Armstrong tweeting a positive comment about Ripple. Many took his statement as a bullish sign that the price of <a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/markets.bitcoin.com\/crypto\/XRP\">XRP<\/a> will soon pump.<\/p>\n<p>Some people suspect that Coinbase may be relisting <a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/markets.bitcoin.com\/crypto\/XRP\">XRP<\/a> soon. \u201cSounds like Brian Armstrong and Coinbase should be getting ready to relist <a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/markets.bitcoin.com\/crypto\/XRP\">XRP<\/a>,\u201d one person tweeted. However, some are still skeptical, arguing that Coinbase will not relist <a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/markets.bitcoin.com\/crypto\/XRP\">XRP<\/a> until the lawsuit is over. Coinbase delisted <a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/markets.bitcoin.com\/crypto\/XRP\">XRP<\/a> in January, soon after the SEC <a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/sec-sue-ripple-over-xrp-cryptocurrency-ceo-xrp-is-not-a-security\/\">filed a lawsuit<\/a> against Ripple Labs and its executives, CEO Garlinghouse and co-founder Chris Larsen.<\/p>\n<p>The Nasdaq-listed company itself recently ran into trouble with the securities watchdog when it tried to launch a lending program. The exchange discussed the product with the SEC but was <a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/us-sec-threatens-sue-crypto-exchange-coinbase-ceo-brian-armstrong-responds\/\">threatened<\/a> with legal action if it proceeded with the launch. This caused Coinbase to <a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/coinbase-abandons-plan-launch-lend-program-after-sec-threatens-lawsuit\/\">shelve the product<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>What do you think about Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong\u2019s comment on Ripple?
