SEC Hides Documents from FOIA Request then Suddenly Uncovers 1,000 Pages of Documents They Claimed Didn’t Exist

The SEC suddenly uncovered 1,000 pages of documents per response to a FOIA request related to SEC leaders’ communications with attorneys regarding the XRP/Ripple case.  They made a mistake and corrected it.  

The SEC – Ripple/XRP case is still in the news.  A recent FOIA request response shows that the government suddenly uncovered emails related to the case that they previously claimed were not there.

More than a year ago, the former SEC Chairman left office and on his last day signed off on an SEC lawsuit against XRP/Ripple.  Chairman Clayton directed Perkins Coie to draft a memo giving Ethereum and Bitcoin a unique advantage in crypto space – then his SEC sued their top competitor on the same day Chairman Clayton left the SEC.

The actions by the SEC were and are atrocious.  Picking a couple of entities in an industry, investing in them, and then helping them by suing their competitor is not what the SEC should be doing.
