Victory for Ripple: XRP winked at the bull with a strong surge

Abstract generation in progress

The Ripple lawsuit with the SEC is nearing its final stages, and there is no sign that XRP will be classified as a security, so the price of XRP has increased by 26 percent.

The price of XRP increased by 26% as a federal judge in New York approached to end a three-year securities case against Ripple Labs. Executives are describing the lawsuit as a 'victory' for the sector.

On August 7, a judge ordered Ripple Labs to pay a $125 million fine and said the firm has been "permanently enjoined and restrained" from violating U.S. securities laws in a lawsuit filed by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

Praise for Ripple (XRP) from Authorized Figures

Ripple is bringing its lawsuit against the SEC to its final stages since the regulatory agency first filed a lawsuit in December 2020. According to CoinMarketCap data, XRP rose by 26% after the news to $0.63 and largely recovered from the drop on August 5th.

Ripple Labs CEO Brad Garlinghouse shortly after the case said in a post: "The outcome of the case is a victory for the industry and the rule of law. The SEC's negativity towards the entire XRP community has been eliminated." He added, "The SEC's unbalanced campaign against us has finally come to an end. Let's all hope that this Administration will end its war on crypto." Co-founder of Ripple Labs, Chris Larsen, added.

Crypto lawyer and Hodl Law founder Fred Rispoli said in an X post on August 7th, 'In general, a big win for Ripple. While I'm surprised by the $125 million fine, Ripple managed to earn it solely through the price movement of XRP in the last 5 minutes.'
