<p>Ripple, the prominent crypto payments solutions firm, has released its Q2 2023 XRP Markets Report, as per an official announcement on August 2.

<p>Despite the company’s voluntary efforts to publish these quarterly reports, Ripple expressed disappointment that the SEC used the report’s information against them in the lawsuit. Garlinghouse, reiterated the company’s commitment to transparency but hinted that future reports might undergo changes given the circumstances.</p> 
<p>In addition to Garlinghouse’s criticism, XRP lawyer John Deaton also <a href="https://twitter.com/JohnEDeaton1/status/1686627185774166016" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">condemned</a> the SEC for leveraging the XRP Markets Report against Ripple and its executives in the legal battle. Deaton pointed out that while Ripple voluntarily shares these reports, other firms hide token sales and intentionally obscure transactions, raising questions about the SEC’s approach.</p> 
<p>The ongoing lawsuit between Ripple and the SEC has drawn attention from the cryptocurrency community and regulatory circles alike. As the legal proceedings unfold, stakeholders eagerly await further developments and the potential implications they may have on Ripple’s operations and the broader crypto landscape.</p>
