As a long-term crypto investor who has closely followed the developments in the regulatory landscape of digital assets, I share John Deaton’s concerns regarding the SEC’s aggressive approach to cryptocurrency regulation under Gary Gensler’s leadership. Having been one of the first individuals to challenge the SEC in various cases, including those involving Ripple, LBRY, and Coinbase, I have witnessed firsthand the SEC’s questionable tactics and what appears to be bad faith dealings.
John Deaton, a prominent XRP legal advocate, has stirred controversy in the cryptocurrency community by calling for the resignation of SEC Chair Gary Gensler. This comes amidst an ongoing legal battle and intensifying criticism towards the SEC’s handling of cryptocurrency regulations.
Under Gensler’s tenure at the SEC, there have been allegations that the commission has deliberately worked against this individual and notable figures in the cryptocurrency sector. This is believed to have been done through dishonest tactics and relentless scrutiny. Specifically, the SEC is said to have focused on Ripple‘s leadership team, which includes Brad Garlinghouse and Chris Larsen, with persistent investigative actions.
I take great pride in being an early advocate against the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), led by Gary Gensler, having served as amicus curiae in the Ripple, LBRY, and Coinbase cases. On New Year’s Day, 2021, I initiated legal action against the SEC, engaging in heated debates with their lawyers for over three years.

As a researcher focusing on the intersection of securities law and cryptocurrencies, I’ve identified a key area of contention: the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) determining which digital assets fall under their regulatory jurisdiction by classifying them as securities. The SEC has taken various enforcement actions in this domain, emphasizing that certain digital assets meet the definition of securities according to U.S. law.
Deaton characterizes the SEC’s current regulatory strategy as erratic and overly zealous, which may hinder progress and innovation in the emerging digital asset industry.
As a researcher, I’ve come across an interesting finding in my investigation. While Gensler leads the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), Deaton doesn’t shy away from addressing Senators Elizabeth Warren and Sherrod Brown directly. He urges them to take responsibility and hold the SEC accountable for any necessary actions.
