  • Ripple’s Brad Garlinghouse and Chris Larsen have been reported to appear at the upcoming annual Fintech conference hosted by the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia. 
  • Before this, Ripple’s flagship event – the Swell conference, would be hosted with several industry key players expected to discuss the future of the crypto industry. 

The price of XRP surged 4% daily after reports emerged that Ripple executives Brad Garlinghouse and Chris Larsen would make a groundbreaking appearance at the annual fintech conference. 

According to details, the upcoming event would be the eighth edition hosted by the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia from October 22 to October 23. Based on the information available on the host’s website, this year’s conference would feature notable fintech professionals and researchers speaking on various topics, including real-world asset tokenization, banking-as-a-service, tokenized deposits, and the potential role of fintech in shaping the future of finance.

According to the senior economist at the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia, the primary agenda for this event is to discuss the future of the fintech industry. For effective delivery, the organizing committee has been taken from the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, Columbia University, the Brookings Institution, the University of Cambridge, and the University of Cambridge. 

In addition to the Ripple executives, the list of expected speakers at the event includes Coinbase lawyer Paul Grewal, and the head of the Crypto Council for Innovation Sheila Warren. 

The Swell Conference by Ripple 

From October 15-16, Ripple will also host its annual flagship event, the Swell Conference. According to the blockchain company, this event will be attended by more than 40 countries, over 600 attendees, and more than 50 speakers. 

Based on the document we have, some of the featured speakers would include Ripple’s Brad Garlinghouse, superintendent at the New York State Department of Financial Services Adrienne Harris, former chair of the FDIC and founding chair of the Systemic Risk Council Sheila Bair, global head of blockchain and digital assets at BBVA Francisco Maroto, and Chief Security Officer at Coinbase Philip Martin. 

According to reports, the conference would discuss several topics to reveal how financial institutions and businesses leverage crypto in blockchain technology. 

Court Case Still Hanging

Currently, the entire crypto industry is waiting for the appeal decision by the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) as the October 7 deadline is fast approaching. According to a former SEC lawyer, the Commission would likely appeal the ruling on the programmatic sales of XRP by Judge Analisa Torres as we reported. However, Ripple’s Chief Legal Officer Stuart Alderoty believes that the conflict has ended.

Attorney Jeremy Hogan commented on this and advised the Commission to consider its “mandate of investors’ protection” in its decision-making. 

Of course, they think the opinion is wrong – they were on the losing side. What the SEC should be thinking of right now is whether an appeal furthers its mandate of investor protection and capital formation. Why isn’t that top of mind? More evidence the SEC has lost the plot.

At press time, XRP was trading at $0.6130, having surged by 4.9% in the last seven days.
