The legal battle between Ripple and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has been a prominent fixture in recent crypto history, particularly after Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse announced that the SEC had agreed to drop their case in April 2024, similar to actions taken against other cryptocurrency companies. However, despite this purported closure, the SEC has yet to officially confirm its ending of the Ripple lawsuit, prompting speculation among XRP supporters who are eagerly anticipating a resolution. Nevertheless, a pro-XRP lawyer cautioned that legal proceedings are still underway and certain court steps remain before reaching a complete conclusion.
