Garrett Green Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

I invested in XRP because of the barbaric SEC frivolously claiming to have legal authority to do things that they clearly dont. There is no reason for SEC to exist and all SEC employees should be blacklisted. SEC is consistently guilty of creating the very problems it was supposedly created to solve. No barriers to entry should exist for participation in the markets. They just want to reduce retail investors' ability to profit in all market conditions and bet against the failing US economy and overall stock market

Jonathan Schmidt-Swartz Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

Most people completely understand all the risks inherent in leveraged and inverse funds. Brokerages provide notices for people who do not understand them as a warning (which should be enough!) and it should be an investors responsibility to know what they are investing into. I hold a PhD and know the risks inherent in these types of investments and I think the proposed rule is unnecessary and makes investing more exclusive then it already is. I use these tools to trade in ways that allows me to hedge my portfolio.

Rick Larrieu Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

Thank you for your time. I've gotten into investing over the last 5 months as an individual with limited funds. I've learned to responsibly utilize leveraged and inverse ETFs and they have become a crucial part of my trading strategy. For someone like me, it allows greater exposure in the market with less funds. Also, inverse tools make the most sense in a bear market which we are possibly going into this year. Finally, I have no idea why anyone would limit use of the plethora of tools available only to the affluent. This is a free country and everyone is considered an equal.
