Ripple Awaits Crucial SEC Vote as XRP Faces Legal and Market Headwinds
Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse on March 19 announced that the SEC would withdraw its appeal against the Programmatic Sales of XRP ruling. Despite this, the SEC has not commented on its appeal plans. Rippleβs Chief Legal Officer Stuart Alderoty also shared proposed settlement terms related to Judge Torresβ Final Judgment, which include:
Reducing the penalty from $150 million to $50 million. The SEC had initially sought $2 billion.
Vacating the injunction on XRP sales to institutional investors. The SEC had requested an injunction to restrict Rippleβs on-demand liquidity and remittance operations.
The SECβs next closed meeting, on April 3, sets up a potential appeal withdrawal vote. XRP has faced intense selling pressure since Brad Garlinghouseβs announcement, tumbling 19% to $2.1088. XRP could fall below $2 if the SEC further delays its vote to withdraw the appeal.
