<p>Ripple and the XRP community are <a href="https://coinpedia.org/news/ripple-vs-sec-lawsuit-ends-xrp-price-surges-17-following-favorable-court-ruling/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">celebrating a partial victory</a> in their long-standing legal battle with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), but the fight might not be over just yet.&nbsp;</p>
<p>As the deadline for the SEC to file an appeal approaches, speculation is growing about the regulator’s next move. Speaking at Korea Blockchain Week Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse reassured everyone by addressing concerns about a possible SEC appeal.</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-the-countdown-to-appeal">The Countdown to Appeal</h2>
<p>The SEC has until September 2024 to decide whether to <a href="https://coinpedia.org/news/ripple-vs-sec-will-the-sec-appeal-the-ripple-xrp-case-ruling/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">appeal the court’s ruling</a> in its case against Ripple. The final judgment, delivered on August 7, 2024, declared that XRP is not inherently a security, a decision that has sparked mixed reactions within the crypto community.</p>
<p>Since the ruling, the SEC has remained silent, fueling speculation about its next steps. Some believe that recent court criticisms of the SEC’s stance on crypto assets might impact its decision.</p>

<p>Amid this uncertainty, Ripple’s CEO, Brad Garlinghouse, spoke at <a href="https://koreablockchainweek.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Korea Blockchain Week (KBW2024)</a> to address concerns about a potential SEC appeal. He confidently stated that there is no credible path for the SEC to challenge the core ruling that XRP is not a security.</p>
<p>Garlinghouse also suggested that the SEC’s aggressive approach toward cryptocurrencies might change with upcoming leadership shifts after the U.S. elections. He noted that the nearly four-year-long lawsuit could finally be nearing its end</p>
<p>Supporting this view, pro-crypto lawyer Bill Morgan highlighted the regulatory differences between the U.S. and other countries.</p>

<p>He noted that the court’s ruling clearly states that XRP itself is not a security, which poses significant challenges for the SEC to argue otherwise.</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-xrp-price-action">XRP Price Action</h2>
<p>XRP has <a href="https://coinpedia.org/news/xrp-price-to-explode-could-breakout-push-xrp-to-0-58-analyst-weighs-in/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">experienced relatively modest losses</a> compared to the broader crypto market, likely due to speculation that the SEC may not appeal. The token currently sits below the 50-day EMA but remains above the 200-day EMA, signaling a mixed outlook.&nbsp;</p>
<p>If the SEC does appeal, XRP could see a drop below $0.40. However, if the SEC opts not to appeal, XRP could rally towards $1.00, mirroring its response to the court’s ruling on the Programmatic Sales of XRP.</p>
<p>As of now, XRP is <a href="https://markets.coinpedia.org/xrp/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">trading around $0.55</a>, showing a 3% decline in the last 24 hours. Despite this drop, XRP’s trading volume has surged by 27%, with a market cap of $30.9 billion.</p>
