<p>Stuart Alderoty, the Chief Legal Officer (CLO) of Ripple, has lately <a href="https://x.com/s_alderoty/status/1809182031311434082" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">expressed</a> his worries about the US strategy of crypto control. His comments fell during a panel discussion at Zurich, Switzerland’s Point Zero Forum.</p>
<p>Alderoty voiced his discontent with the U.S. legal system for digital assets, stressing that the constant application of good regulation should produce expected results.</p>

 <p lang="en" dir="ltr">Thanks to <a href="https://twitter.com/pointzeroforum?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">@PointZeroForum</a> for organizing this great panel in Zurich this past week. As I explained: Good regulation, when consistently applied, leads to predictable results. Unfortunately, the US fails that test miserably compared to its global counterparts. <a href="https://t.co/Vqw1MalL8B" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">pic.twitter.com/Vqw1MalL8B</a></p>

<h2 id="strong-ripple-clo-highlights-regulatory-overreach-and-inconsistency-strong"><strong>Ripple CLO Highlights Regulatory Overreach and Inconsistency</strong></h2>
<p>Alderoty especially aimed at the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (<a href="https://www.crypto-news-flash.com/ripple-news-xrp-follows-crypto-crash-can-settlement-with-sec-push-price-to-1/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">SEC</a>) and Chair Gary Gensler for what he believes to be excessive regulation. He underlined how greatly the activities of the SEC have frustrated the bitcoin sector.</p>
<p>Alderoty claims that the U.S. regulatory environment’s lack of uniformity and clarity slows the evolution and acceptance of digital assets. He stated:</p>
<blockquote>
 <p>“Good regulation, when consistently applied, leads to predictable results. Unfortunately, the US fails that test miserably compared to its global counterparts.”</p>
</blockquote>
<p>This criticism highlights a more general problem in the sector, whereby many players believe that the present <a href="https://www.crypto-news-flash.com/ripple-ceo-optimistic-regulatory-clarity-paves-way-for-xrp-in-the-u-s/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">U.S. regulatory</a> policy is not only erratic but also stunts innovation.</p>
<h3 id="strong-market-data-and-recent-developments-strong"><strong>Market Data and Recent Developments</strong></h3>
<p>Data from CoinMarketCap shows that, at the time of writing, <a href="https://www.crypto-news-flash.com/bill-morgan-buys-more-xrp-amid-market-dip-and-uncertainty/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">XRP’s</a> price is roughly <strong>$0.4359</strong>, having increased by<strong><span style="color: #339966;"> 3.76%</span></strong> over the last 24 hours. Over the past seven days, it has shown a bearish position instead, declining <span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>8.27%</strong></span>. These changes in the market complicate the regulatory issues the sector faces even more.</p>

<p>On the other hand, CNF underlined earlier this month that Ripple released <a href="https://www.crypto-news-flash.com/ripple-unlocks-1-billion-xrp-from-escrow-settlement-ahead/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">1 billion XRP</a> from escrow. This action is part of Ripple’s continuous plan to control XRP production and distribution on the market. Such changes are vital since they can greatly affect investor attitude and market dynamics.</p>
<p>Alderoty’s remarks at the Point Zero Forum reflect the opinion of many in the crypto community: the necessity of more consistent, clearer legislation. The demand for a legislative framework that promotes innovation while guaranteeing investor protection becomes ever more crucial as the sector develops and expands.</p>
