During a recent episode of 60 Minutes, Ripple's legal battle with the SEC was the main focus, but Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse and others expressed frustration over the way the story was presented. Garlinghouse highlighted that the interview failed to include the significant legal development that a federal judge ruled XRP is not a security on public exchanges. He criticized the program for omitting important context and disregarding real-world applications of blockchain technology. Crypto proponents accused 60 Minutes of bias and misrepresentation. The episode also showed that the crypto industry has ingrained itself in US politics and society, influencing elections and legislative initiatives. However, there was a clear divide in perspectives on cryptocurrency, with some emphasizing its potential risks and misuse.
