XRP lawyer slams watchdogs approach
Gabriel Shapiro, General Counsel at Delphi Labs mentioned that SEC is aggressively expanding the notion of “disgorgement” in the lawsuit against LBRY. It is trying to treat all distributions of LBC tokens as sales.
It added that the SEC is equating the resulting benefits of distribution to profit generated on the current LBC spot price.
John Deaton, Amicus Curiae in the XRP lawsuit or XRP holders’ lawyer slammed the SEC over its approach towards the crypto market. He highlighted the commission’s alleged in its objection that all money raised by the crypto firms went into operation.
SEC making abrupt claims
Deaton added that after these claims the SEC brings up disgorgement. As per the XRP lawyer, under Liu, it is meant to be offset by legitimate business expenses. However, the watchdog pled that everything raised by the LBRY went into operations.
