XRP Finds a New Ally in Coinbase

In a surprise move last night, Coinbase announced it would be filing an amicus brief to join Ripple Labs, the company behind XRP, in its lawsuit against the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

Elaine Ly and Ash Bennington dig into the XRP-and-Coinbase news at the top of today’s show. Then, Elaine and Ash turn their attention to another surprising story about regulation: SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce had some tough words for her boss and the SEC itself, as she expressed her frustrations with the securities watchdog’s practices with regard to crypto.
