Ripple is being sued for selling its XRP token in an unregistered securities offering, the Coin Telegraph reports.
A number of class-action lawsuits have been reportedly filed against Ripple in recent months.
In addition, former Chairman of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), Chris Giancarlo, is arguing in a recently published paper that Ripple’s XRP is not a security.
Giancarlo was behind the CFTC’s stance that Bitcoin and Ethereum are not securities.
