These firms, involved in <strong>legal battles<\/strong> with the <strong>SEC<\/strong>, expect the <strong>new administration<\/strong> to halt <strong>aggressive policies<\/strong> on <strong>digital assets<\/strong> and implement <strong>regulatory changes<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Ripple\u2019s <strong>Chief Legal Officer Stuart Alderoty<\/strong> expressed optimism, hoping <strong>leadership changes<\/strong> at the <strong>SEC<\/strong> would lead to a more <strong>reasonable approach<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Paul Grewal<\/strong>, <strong>Coinbase&#8217;s Chief Legal Officer<\/strong>, also echoed this sentiment on <strong>social media<\/strong> after <strong>Trump\u2019s victory<\/strong> on <strong>November 6<\/strong>.
