Ripple’s legal battle is heating up as attorney Bill Morgan responds critically to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) recent petition regarding XRP. Morgan argues that the SEC’s understanding of the cryptocurrency landscape is flawed, asserting that the regulator’s claims do not align with market realities. This discourse comes as XRP’s value notably surged.

SEC's Allegations Against Ripple

In its new petition, the SEC alleges that Ripple has breached securities laws by selling XRP, implying that such actions created profit expectations among investors reliant on the rising value of their tokens. This assertion has become a focal point of debate in the ongoing case.

Morgan's Critique of the SEC's Position

Morgan has firmly rejected these allegations, asserting that they reflect the SEC’s misunderstanding of how crypto markets function. He stated, “This is complete nonsense,” highlighting that market trends often impact all assets simultaneously, not just those promoted by specific issuers.

Status of Legal Proceedings

Following discussions, both Ripple and the SEC have filed a mutual commitment with the U.S. Second Circuit Court of Appeals. They have also agreed on a timeline for forthcoming cross-appeals, indicating continued progress in the legal process related to the XRP case.

The recent legal developments have triggered significant activity in the market. Reports show that large holders of XRP, referred to as whales, transferred around 130 million tokens, intensifying market speculation and interest in XRP. Ripple's token is increasingly viewed favorably by traders for its significant long-term potential, despite ongoing legal challenges.
