Ripple: Epic 2024 forecast after SEC lawsuit
In the outgoing year of 2023, Ripple emerged victorious in its long-lasting legal battle with the SEC. Among the fintech giant's wins are admitting that the XRP token is not a security in its entirety and dismissing all remaining charges on its top executives, Brad Garlinghouse and Chris Larsen. In Light of this, the company's CLO Stuart Alderoty shared three bold outlooks on policy and crypto regulation for the upcoming year. Alderoty predicts that in 2024, the last bit of the SEC's lawsuit against Ripple will finally come to an end, but the SEC's campaign of regulation by enforcement will continue against other industry leaders. His second prediction says that judges will continue to be the last line of defense against the SEC’s overreach, and the SEC will continue to lose major issues in the courts. The last prediction by Alderoty was that Congress will agree in principle on crypto regulation but will disagree on the best course of action, leaving U.S. crypto firms stuck.
Bitcoin (BTC) price to $1 million is Arthur Hayes' next target
BitMEX cofounder and analyst Arthur Hayes recently shared a new, audacious price target for Bitcoin: $1 million. Hayes is well known for his optimistic predictions, which he frequently sticks to even in the face of market declines or general skepticism. His conviction is based on his perception of the inherent value that Bitcoin offers and its potential to completely transform the financial system. This $1 million goal is about more than just making money; it is also about Bitcoin's potential to form the foundation of a new financial order. However, it is crucial to use caution when approaching such price targets. In order for Bitcoin to reach $1 million, it would need to undergo a substantial restructuring of the present financial system, in addition to becoming widely accepted and acknowledged as a store of value.
