The SEC\u2019s evolving stance on crypto regulation complicates this position.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If the regulator now questions whether certain enforcement actions were warranted, Ripple contends it should not be held to terms that may no longer align with the agency\u2019s shifting priorities.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although the sale of XRP to retail was not considered an unregistered securities offering, Judge Torres ruled that Ripple\u2019s institutional sales of XRP constituted investment contracts, violating securities laws.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As a result, the decision imposed a $125 million penalty on the company and included a permanent injunction prohibiting the sale of XRP to institutional investors. Both parties were preparing their appeals before the rumors surfaced.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On March 1, lawyer James Murphy, known as MetaLawMan,<\/span> <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/MetaLawMan\/status\/1895899204134060538\">speculated<\/a><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> that the SEC would have accepted a settlement to drop appeals and receive the $125 million penalty \u201cin a heartbeat.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, the outcome would not be favorable for Ripple, especially if the company is considering a future exempt securities offering or an initial public offering.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Stance shift<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As of March 4, the SEC halted 11 lawsuits and investigations against crypto firms, including high-profile cases such as Binance, Coinbase, Kraken, and Consensys.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The moves align with the legal clarity sought by the new SEC administration, which includes pro-crypto Commissioner <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/people\/mark-uyeda\/\">Mark Uyeda<\/a> as acting chair and pro-crypto Commissioner <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/people\/hester-peirce\/\">Hester Peirce<\/a> as head of the Crypto Task Force.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Notably, the Crypto Task Force is the first crypto-focused effort from the regulator to establish a comprehensive framework for rulemaking, opposing former SEC chair <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/people\/gary-gensler\/\">Gary Gensler's<\/a> \u201cregulation by enforcement\u201d stance.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is reportedly preparing to conclude its long-running lawsuit against Ripple, the issuer of XRP.
