Stuart Alderoty has been a central figure in one of the most closely watched regulatory battles in the crypto industry. In December 2020, the SEC charged Ripple Labs and two of its executives with allegedly conducting a $1.3 billion unregistered securities offering involving XRP, in a civil enforcement action. In July 2023, a district court issued a split ruling, finding that Ripple's institutional XRP sales constituted unregistered investment contracts, while programmatic sales on exchanges and certain other distributions did not. In August 2024, Ripple was ordered to pay a $125 million civil penalty, well below the SEC's request of nearly $2 billion. As of August 2025, the SEC and Ripple agreed to dismiss their mutual appeals, leaving the $125 million fine and injunction in place.
