Elon Musk, the owner of popular social media platform X has been called out for the suspension of an XRP-related X account.
The Suspended XRP Account
Crypto Eri, a known enthusiast in the crypto space, expressed concerns by tagging Elon Musk directly on the X platform in quest to know if the account suspension was a mistake.
The account in question, which goes by the handle @digitalassetbuy, was known for its vocal support of XRP, the native cryptocurrency of Ripple Labs Inc. XRP has had its fair share of controversies and legal battles, including a lawsuit by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) that alleged XRP to be an unregistered security.
Despite these challenges, XRP has maintained a dedicated community of supporters who believe in its potential. @digitalassetbuy’s X account was a platform where XRP enthusiasts could share news, and insights, and engage in discussions about the cryptocurrency. However, the account was suspended earlier without warning, leaving its followers in shock and disbelief.
While some have come to Musk’s defense, arguing that the suspension was merely a precaution against potential scammers, the silence from X officials is driving wide ranging speculations.
In response to a comment suggesting that “scammers are getting blocked, that’s all,” Crypto Eri maintained her position on the undue process through which the account was suspended.
“I have been doing my part to stick to the facts. Even when I’m called the crypto police or part of the cancel culture. That’s not been fun. I have empathy because he built his whole channel around using the X platform,” she said.
The controversy which has picked the interest of top industry advocates like XRP holder’s lawyer John Deaton now borders on whether this suspension is a one off event or the return of censorship on X.
Meanwhile, a recent report has revealed that Musk is being investigated by the SEC. The probe centers around whether Musk violated federal securities laws in connection with his stock purchases and subsequent statements and filings related to the acquisition of X.
X Policies and Account Suspensions
It is worth noting that X has established rules and policies to maintain a safe and respectful environment for its users. Accounts that violate these rules, such as engaging in harassment, spreading misinformation, or engaging in malicious activities, may face suspension.
While these policies are essential to combat harmful behavior on the platform, there have been instances where accounts were mistakenly suspended or banned, raising concerns about transparency and fairness.
