The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has officially dropped its appeal against Ripple, concluding a four-year legal battle that accused the blockchain company of conducting a $1.3 billion unregistered securities offering.
Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse confirmed the news at the Digital Asset Summit in New York, calling it a “resounding victory for Ripple, for crypto, every way you look at it.” The decision means Ripple (XRP-USD) can now operate without the risk of further SEC enforcement actions.
Garlinghouse later posted a video on X (formerly Twitter), declaring, “The case has ended. It’s over.”
This is it – the moment we’ve been waiting for. The SEC will drop its appeal – a resounding victory for Ripple, for crypto, every way you look at it.
