The ongoing legal battle between Ripple and the SEC is fueling speculation of a potential settlement. Recent developments suggest the case resolution might be closer than expected.
Ripple and U.S. Government Negotiations
One factor intensifying speculation is the revelation that Ripple's CEO, Brad Garlinghouse, has had discussions with President Donald Trump about XRP as a potential national digital reserve asset. While the idea of XRP becoming a national reserve asset remains uncertain, the occurrence of such discussions is seen as a major development.
Removal from SEC Website
The recent removal of the Ripple case from the SEC's website has sparked rumors about an imminent settlement. However, experts warn against drawing hasty conclusions from this development.
Expert Opinions on Case Progress
Sherrie, a well-known expert in the XRP community, noted that the case was not moved — it has been concluded and is now listed under 'Award Claims'. Upon appeal, it received a new case number and can be found on the Court of Appeals website.
Despite the numerous speculations, experts emphasize the importance of following official information and avoiding premature assumptions about the Ripple and SEC case.
