Ripple-SEC Meeting Raises Hopes for Ripple Settlement

Ripple’s Executive Chairman and Co-founder Chris Larsen is set to meet with new SEC Chair Paul Atkins on May 2, 2025, as the ongoing legal battle between Ripple and the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) continues. The meeting comes amidst growing anticipation for potential progress in resolving this contentious case that has significantly impacted the future of XRP. 2025 is a significant year: the SEC will vote on whether to approve a spot-based XRP ETF, and it’s not clear what role the upcoming meeting could play in these developments.
