BREAKING: Historic Win For Ripple, CEO Confirms End Of SEC Case

In a significant development for the cryptocurrency industry, Ripple Labs CEO Brad Garlinghouse announced that the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has officially dropped its case against the blockchain payments company. 

SEC Drops Case Against Ripple

In a four-minute video shared on social media, Garlinghouse declared, “I’m finally able to announce, this case has ended, it’s over.” He emphasized that the SEC’s case, initiated under the leadership of former Chair Gary Gensler, was destined for failure from the start. Garlinghouse characterized this moment as a significant victory, describing it as a “long overdue surrender” by the SEC.

Garlinghouse further criticized Gensler, who resigned on January 20, the same day President Donald Trump took office, for his aggressive stance against the cryptocurrency sector.

Ripple’s CEO claimed that the SEC under Gensler sought to intimidate the entire industry, using arguments similar to those employed in the Ripple case.

The SEC had alleged that Ripple and its executives raised over $1.3 billion through an unregistered ongoing securities offering involving the sale of XRP. According to the lawsuit filed four years ago, Ripple had been selling XRP since 2013 without registering the asset as a security, thereby violating federal securities laws.

Major Asset Managers Eye XRP ETF Approval

With the case now resolved, Garlinghouse asserted that XRP is no longer viewed as a security under the Howey Test, a critical legal standard used to determine whether certain transactions qualify as investment contracts. 

This clarity is not only essential for regulatory compliance but also supports the approval of XRP exchange-traded funds (ETFs) that have been filed by major asset managers seeking regulatory green lights this year.

This victory comes as the SEC, now under the acting chair Mark Uyeda, appears to have shifted its stance, aligning more with the current administration’s focus on fostering innovation in the digital asset space. 

In response to the news, XRP’s price surged nearly 12%, climbing back above the $2.4 mark after experiencing a dip to $1.7 during February’s market sell-off.
