The legal dispute between Ripple and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission appears to be nearing a conclusion. Recent reports indicate that both parties are wrapping up their appeals to the Second Circuit Court of Appeals, with an official decision expected by August 15th.

The movement of large investors—known as whales—reflected this positive outlook. Massive purchases of XRP were recorded after the recent drop, contributing to a significant appreciation of over 8% at the beginning of the week, with the token reaching $3,10. At the time of publication, the price of XRP was trading at $2,91, down 4% in the last 24 hours.

Ripple and SEC Close to Ending Legal Dispute

According to Morgan, Judge Analisa Torres' role has already been concluded , and the next step is up to the SEC commissioners.

“We are just waiting for the SEC commissioners to vote to dismiss the appeal and for the parties to take the final action by dismissing their respective appeals,” he said.

Ripple has already announced that it intends to withdraw its appeal, and the parties even signed a conditional agreement providing for mutual withdrawal — but the terms of the agreement were not met.

The denial could occur before the deadline for informing the Court of Appeals of the status of the appeals. However, Morgan emphasized that August 15th does not represent a legal deadline for such a denial. While he considers it unlikely, he does not rule out the possibility of the parties requesting a further extension.

A closed-door SEC meeting is scheduled for August 7th, which may include a final vote on the case. The agenda includes settlements, administrative trials, and dispute resolution—which could pave the way for the official withdrawal of the funds.

The market is closely monitoring developments, considering the potential impact that the conclusion of this process could have on the price of XRP and the regulatory perception of cryptocurrencies in the United States.

Trump’s $9B investment won’t fix Intel’s real problem

Despite the funding, analysts warn Intel’s contract chipmaking (14A and 18A processes) won’t be viable without major external clients and improved manufacturing yields. The deal, which includes discounted shares and no board seat, reflects a rare federal intervention in corporate ownership.
