<a href="https://u.today/ripple-lawsuit-jeremy-hogan-clarifies-confusion-regarding-release-of-hinman-emails" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Attorney Jeremy Hogan</a>, who closely follows the development of the Ripple-SEC lawsuit and events related to regulation and XRP in particular, has taken to X app (formerly known as Twitter) to share his take on the verdict of a federal judge. The judge granted permission to the current FTX managers to start selling its digital currencies (including XRP and SOL — two cryptos that are, among others, considered by the SEC to be unregistered securities). 
Hogan tweeted that since these sales of cryptocurrencies have been authorized and XRP, <a href="https://u.today/no-solana-sol-wont-crash-ftxs-liquidation-isnt-what-you-think" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">SOL, etc., will be moving again</a> to the secondary market, these sales must by all means be legal and free from the registration requirements of the SEC. He believes that a verdict by a federal judge is enough to mark these cryptos as nonsecurities, at least in this particular case. 
<blockquote> 
 Since a Federal Judge is authorizing the sale of FTX digital assets (including Solana and XRP) back into the secondary market, those sales must be legal and exempt from SEC registration requirements.Last I heard, the DEA doesn't sell cocaine it confiscates back to the cartels. <a href="https://t.co/9hnEXXw5pT" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">https://t.co/9hnEXXw5pT</a>— Jeremy Hogan (@attorneyjeremy1) <a href="https://twitter.com/attorneyjeremy1/status/1702301169941450953?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">September 14, 2023</a>

The limit on crypto sales from FTX is set at $50 million worth of digital currencies. Further, the exchange will be permitted to sell $100 million worth of crypto per week. 
Earlier this week, some crypto experts expressed concerns regarding FTX beginning a sell-off, expecting that this dump of crypto may send prices on the cryptocurrency market way down. 
However, as <a href="https://u.today/breaking-ftx-allowed-to-sell-34-billion-worth-of-sol-xrp-eth-btc-and-other-coins" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">reported by U.Today</a>, FTX might not start selling SOL this year at all. The 42.16 million SOL (most of which belongs to Alameda Research) are locked until 2025, so no earlier sales are possible. These sales have been approved as part of the strategy of compensating the losses of FTX creditors. All-in-all, FTX managers plan to sell $3.4 billion worth of crypto assets: $199 million in XRP, $1.16 billion worth of SOL and $560 million in Bitcoin. 
<blockquote> 
 FTX currently holds $1.162 billion worth of SOL token. According to solanacompass, there are currently more than 42.16 million SOLs (about 67% of the above-SOLs) belonging to Alameda and in a locked state, with the unlocking date starting in 2025.
