<p>The SEC’s lawsuit against Ripple is nearing its final verdict after a long and intense legal battle. <a href="https://www.cointribune.com/defaite-imminente-de-la-sec-face-a-ripple-les-baleines-nagent-dans-la-joie/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Many analysts predict a defeat for the SEC</a> against Ripple. Among them is John Deaton, a renowned American attorney and founder of CryptoLaw.</p><div class="my-4"><div class="ads ">

<p>During an <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wc5nbPb4-cw&amp;embeds_referring_euri=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cryptoglobe.com%2F&amp;source_ve_path=Mjg2NjY&amp;feature=emb_logo" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">interview</a> on June 3rd on the “Good Morning Crypto Show” of the 3T Warrior Academy, Deaton shared his insights on this case that has generated great interest in the crypto industry.</p>



<p>According to Deaton, the central element of the case revolves around whether Ripple received fair notice from the SEC. He predicts that the jury will decide on this crucial question.</p>



<p>Furthermore, he also references the involvement of Judge Analisa Torres from the United States District Court and expects her to examine sales on the secondary market. In fact, no less than 76,000 XRP holders have joined as amici to highlight this issue in the memorandum.</p>



<p>Deaton believes that Judge Torres’ failure to comment on sales on the secondary market would be disappointing, if not shocking.</p>



<h2 id="will-xrp-escape-the-security-classification">Will XRP escape the security classification?</h2>



<p>The legal expert does not think that XRP itself will be considered a security. According to him, Judge Torres will comment on sales on the secondary market. Even if she concludes that Ripple violated the law.</p>



<p>However, he emphasizes that a favorable situation could arise if the judge decides that Ripple satisfied the 2013-2018 Howey Test while considering that ongoing, future, and secondary market sales are not securities. In this scenario, it could lead to a “clear-cut victory” for Ripple. Deaton believes that this would allow Ripple to argue before a jury that they are not in violation of the law due to a lack of fair notice.</p>



<p>Regarding the possible outcomes of the case. Deaton assesses the chances of a “complete and simple victory” for the SEC at less than 3%. Conversely, he estimates the chances of such a victory for Ripple at 25%. This would mean that Ripple’s initial XRP sales would not even violate US securities laws.</p>



<p>Finally, he also predicts a 50% shared outcome. In this case, he believes that a settlement would be likely as the SEC would not want the jury to declare that Ripple’s initial XRP sales do not constitute a violation of securities laws. It could further complicate its cases against other cryptocurrencies.</p><div class="my-4"><div class="ads ">

<p>The Ripple vs. SEC case continues to generate significant interest within the crypto community. It could have a significant impact on the industry. The judicial decision in this case is eagerly awaited, with several experts, including Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse. Believing that <a href="https://www.cointribune.com/les-experts-pensent-que-le-proces-ripple-vs-sec-se-terminera-en-juin/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">this lawsuit could come to a conclusion</a> as early as this month.</p>
