In one of the strongest public defenses this year, Ripple's chief lawyer, Stuart Alderoty, launched a direct attack on The New York Times, accusing it of publishing "lazy and misleading" narratives about digital currencies.
🗣️ "Corruption does not thrive in public."
In a post on X dated October 17, Alderoty said:
"For the second time in weeks, the NYT publishes an article portraying digital currencies as tools for crime and corruption. It's a convenient story… but it's lazy and inaccurate."
