Earlier today, one of the actors from the cast of the popular U.S. film series “Breaking Bad,” Daniel Moncada, joined the discussion of Ripple and the SEC case initiated by crypto influencer David Gokhshtein.
The former congressional candidate asked his army of followers if they thought Ripple crypto giant would win the case against the securities regulator. Moncada stepped in, tweeting “yes sir” in response. He did not add any thoughts on that in particular but rather expressed the general opinion that has been in the air around Crypto Twitter for the past couple of weeks.
Now, Ripple has scored a small victory as the SEC lost out on privilege claims over the Hinman documents in the case against the blockchain firm. The price of XRP reacted by surging by roughly 12%. Now, the whole crypto community is watching this case as attentively as ever, their fingers crossed for Ripple to win. Many have stated that should Ripple Labs beat the SEC, it would become a major driver for XRP, Ripple, and the whole crypto space. If Ripple loses, other coins may become further targets for the SEC, some on Crypto Twitter believe.
