<p>After some positive developments for Ripple in July regarding its case against the SEC about XRP’s classification, things have gotten uncertain again. We’re all waiting for the final decision in the US court, but it’s not clear if Ripple will win or not. Cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology have been at the forefront of discussions in recent times and Ripple has been making headlines for demanding clarity.</p> 
<p>Karen Ottoni,&nbsp; the Sr. The Director of Ecosystem and Strategic Initiatives at Hyperledger Foundation said in a conversation with Thinking Crypto that while comprehensive regulations from congressional bodies are still in the works, the ruling provides some clarity from the courts. A key takeaway from this ruling is that tokens themselves are not inherently considered securities. Rather, the focus is on how these tokens are packaged and presented to investors.</p> 
<p>Karen explained that while it’s hard to talk about the Ripple case directly, the clear explanations from these rulings really matter. They help everyone, like governments, regulators, and people in the market, to know what tokens and securities mean in the world of cryptocurrency.</p> 
<p>Furthermore, central banks around the world are considering the implementation of Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) using blockchain technology. For instance, the Central Bank of Brazil announced plans to build a CBDC on Hyperledger Basu, while countries like Nigeria and Norway have already launched CBDCs using Hyperledger technology.</p> 
<blockquote class="wp-block-quote"> 
 <p>She said, “It is definitely always very useful to have clarification on how governments or regulatory bodies are defining tokens and securities, as well as how they are being used.”</p> 
</blockquote> 
<p>Ripple Labs and its senior executives, Brad Garlinghouse and ChrisLarsen, were accused by the SEC of selling securities unlawfully. The court agreed with the SEC on some points, like Institutional Sales, but disagreed on other matters in their summary judgment motions. In the recent update, the parties in the Ripple-SEC case told Judge Analisa Torres when they’re available. Ripple’s legal team said they’re ready for trial in the second quarter of 2024.</p>
