Well, it looks like Ripple vs. is turning up the heat! As the SEC vs. Ripple legal battle nears its conclusion, legal experts are discussing the next steps. Unless the SEC introduces any unexpected developments, experts predict the much-awaited final verdict could come in July.
The anticipation is at an all-time high! Are we finally going to get the verdict we have all been waiting for?
Pro-XRP lawyer Fred Rispoli forecasts that Judge Torres might announce the decision on remedies by July, with potential dates as early as July 13 or by the end of the month. The SEC is pushing for a hefty penalty of $2 billion, while Ripple counters that a fine of no more than $10 million is more appropriate.
Rispoli also suggests that a pre-judgment settlement is improbable, though some unresolved issues may still be subject to negotiation. Notably, July 13 holds historical significance for Ripple, marking the anniversary of Judge Torres’ pivotal decision declaring XRP not a security. This landmark ruling caused XRP’s price to surge dramatically, showcasing the market’s sensitivity to legal outcomes.
July 13 is notable in Ripple’s legal battle because it marks the anniversary of the landmark decision where Judge Torres declared that XRP is not a security. This decision caused XRP’s price to double in a matter of hours, highlighting the potential for significant market movements based on legal outcomes in this case. Rispoli’s suggestion of this date for the final verdict reflects hope for a similar positive turnaround for Ripple and its supporters.
The lawsuit has shifted from determining whether XRP is a security to debating the financial penalties Ripple must face. The SEC is seeking billions of dollars in damages from Ripple for what it claims were unregistered securities sales.
On the other hand, Ripple has argued that the SEC’s demands for damages are unreasonable and should be reduced to $10 million. The SEC has recently lowered its demand to $102 million, indicating a positive outcome for Ripple, but Ripple has turned down this request. The dispute over the damages is a critical phase in the lawsuit, as both sides maintain their legal arguments over the scale of financial penalties.
XRP is in a critical position after Ripple turned down the SEC’s offer to reduce its penalty to $102.6 million. This move could impact Ripple and the XRP token, which has already seen over $200 million in legal costs. Currently priced at $0.4830, XRP has risen 0.8% in 24 hours and 1.5% over the past week. With a 14% increase in trading volume to $862 million, XRP could see further gains if market sentiment remains positive.
Will July prove to be another historic month for Ripple? Only time will tell.
