Ripple (XRP) Settlement Rejected: Judge Torres Upholds Injunction, Creating Significant Headwinds for XRP Price
According to FoxNews, a New York judge has rejected a joint settlement request from Ripple Labs and the SEC, creating significant legal headwinds for Ripple (XRP). District Judge Analisa Torres denied the request to lower Ripple's penalty and remove a permanent injunction, stating there remains a 'reasonable probability' that Ripple would continue violating federal securities laws. The judge argued that the parties, including the newly crypto-friendly SEC, did not present 'exceptional circumstances' to justify changing the court's final judgment. This decision prolongs legal uncertainty for Ripple and its digital asset, XRP, which was trading at approximately $2.2277 with a 24-hour change of -1.018%.

Ripple (XRP) Ends SEC Legal Battle by Dropping Appeal After Judge Rejects $50M Settlement Proposal
According to @FoxNews, Ripple is ending its long-standing legal battle with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) by dropping its cross-appeal. The announcement was made by Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse and follows U.S. District Judge Analisa Torres's rejection of a joint request for a revised settlement for the second time.

By withdrawing the appeal, Ripple accepts the original $125 million penalty and the permanent injunction remains in place.

Judge Rejects Ripple (XRP) and SEC's $50M Settlement, Citing Concerns Over Dissolving Injunction
According to Paul Grewal, New York District Judge Analisa Torres has rejected a joint request from Ripple Labs and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to approve a modified settlement. The proposal aimed to reduce Ripple's civil penalty to $50 million and, crucially, dissolve a permanent injunction against the company. In her ruling, Judge Torres stated the primary issue was the removal of the injunction, as the court previously found a 'reasonable probability' that Ripple would continue violating federal securities laws, and she sees no change in this situation. She argued that the parties failed to demonstrate the 'exceptional circumstances' necessary to alter the court's final judgment. This legal setback introduces continued uncertainty for Ripple's XRP token, which is currently trading around $2.18. For market context, Solana (SOL) is trading near $150.75. The judge suggested two paths forward for the parties: withdraw their ongoing appeals or proceed with an appeal, both of which would uphold the court's original findings. |
