Did Ripple Make a Deal with a Law Firm to Attack Competitors?

In a report in Crypto Leaks, ripple’s CEO, denies funding a law firm against rival companies.

A cryptocurrency, often known as a crypto-currency or crypto, is a type of digital currency used in computer science that is supported and maintained decentralized. Instead, ownership and transaction information is kept in a digital ledger, generally a blockchain, utilizing distributed ledger technology. However, a cryptocurrency is typically regarded as centralized when it is issued by a single issuer or minted or generated before issuance.

From the outside, it appears that bitcoin is the only cryptocurrency worth investing in. Bitcoin leads in market capitalization and overall investor traction as the most well-known cryptocurrency. But there are several choices available for people looking to diversify their holdings and try out coins that have a different perspective on the idea of digital currencies. One of them is XRP from Ripple. The cryptocurrency was sixth in terms of overall market capitalization in May 2022.

The native cryptocurrency for Ripple Labs’ products is called XRP. Its products are utilized in remittance systems that function more like SWIFT, a service for international money and security transfers used by a network of banks and financial intermediaries, for payment settlement, asset exchange, and remittance systems. Compared to Bitcoin, XRP is pre-mined and uses a simpler mining process.

Crypto Leaks, an online journal that specializes in stories about corruption and fraud in the cryptocurrency ecosystem, recently made some stunning charges that Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse took to Twitter to refute.

A report from Crypto Leaks that included several quick films from an unidentified source was released on Friday. According to the article, Ava Labs and the law firm made a deal in private to “target and harm crypto companies” using the American legal system in “gangster style.”

The CEO of Ripple, Brad Garlinghouse, allegedly paid a law firm to pursue rival companies, according to the same source. According to the reports, Roche, who established Roche Freedman, collaborated with Boies Schiller Flexner, a company defending Ripple in its legal battle with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

According to reports, Roche approached Garlinghouse about finding a law firm that would file litigation against rival crypto companies that were quite comparable to those Ripple was dealing with at the time. Kyle also asserted that Garlinghouse accepted his offer. The CEO of Ripple responded to the claims on Twitter, saying he has never met or spoken to (much less invested in) Kyle Roche.

The latest charges made by Crypto Leaks against Ava Labs and Brad Garlinghouse caused quite a stir in the cryptocurrency sector, even though both CEOs of the company have vehemently denied any ties to Kyle Roche and his legal team. When one user pointed out the error in Crypto Leaks’ justification, Ripple and the XRP community jumped to the CEO of the company’s defense. The user claimed that Kyle’s words, which were later presented as facts without supporting evidence, were the basis for the assertions.

Chris Larsen, co-founder and executive chairman of Ripple, was notoriously involved in the effort to change the Bitcoin code, while Garlinghouse denied financing in a law firm that targets competitors.
