Coinbase throws support behind Ripple Hey Peeps! I am sure everyone is already aware of the SEC (U.S. Securities and Exchanges Commission) and their lawsuit against Ripple Labs, who are the creators of the XRP token and the Ripple protocol.

Back on December 12th of 2020, the SEC alleged that Ripple violated Sections 5(a) and 5(c) of the Securities Act of 1933, by engaging in the unlawful offer and sale of…

LBRY Loses SEC Case Hey Peeps! A lot of important news dropped today, but one of the most consequential, in my opinion, was the verdict in the SEC vs LBRY case.

This SEC filed the lawsuit back in March of 2021, and it claimed that "*LBRY…

Justin Sun tweeted out in the early morning (at least early here in the USA) that he was working with FTX to "*return to normalcy*". This tweet came moments after he…

Hardware Wallets are on the rise after the collapse of FTX Hey Peeps! It comes as no surprise that, in the wake of FTX's collapse, both Ledger and Trezor have seen some of the highest sales days in their history. As upsetting as the collapse of FTX is to many people, this is a wake-up call to all crypto holders that we do not own our crypto when it is held on exchanges. Unless we have the keys to the wallet, that is not our cryptocurrency....or as the famous saying goes "NOT…
