The XRP lawsuit , one of the most significant legal battles in the history of cryptocurrency, is nearing its final chapter. Ripple Labs and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) are both expected to formally withdraw their appeals, a move that would bring immediate finality to Judge Analisa Torres’s landmark 2023 ruling. As highlighted by Jungle Inc Crypto News on X, this outcome requires no further court action. Once the appeals are dropped, the case is over, no retrial, no revisions, and no delays. Judge Torres’s Ruling Becomes Final Judge Torres’s ruling in July 2023 delivered a partial win for both sides. The judge ruled that XRP is not a security in itself, and Ripple’s sales of XRP on secondary markets through programmatic means did not constitute a breach of securities laws. However, the court found that Ripple’s institutional sales of XRP were unregistered securities offerings. This split decision gave both the SEC and Ripple grounds to appeal. If Ripple and the SEC drop their appeals, it’s over. Judge Torres’s ruling becomes final immediately — no retrial, no revisions, no extra steps. Marc Fagel (former SEC Regional Director) confirmed: The moment the appeals are withdrawn, her decision stands as law. … pic.twitter.com/9Q4aMNLvSn — Jungle Inc Crypto News (@jungleincxrp) July 5, 2025 Following a denied settlement attempt, Ripple and the SEC seem poised to move by dropping their appeals. Once the appeals are formally withdrawn, Judge Torres’s opinion becomes the final word on the matter. No further input or signature from the judge is necessary. The ruling becomes legally binding and will stand as a precedent in future cases involving digital assets. No More Legal Delays or Courtroom Drama As Jungle Inc Crypto News succinctly stated, “No more delays. No more court drama.” This sentiment captures the relief that many XRP holders and industry participants feel after years of legal uncertainty. The end of the appeals process marks the legal resolution of a case that began in December 2020 and sent shockwaves across the crypto sector. The decision will no longer be subject to modification or reversal. Ripple can now operate without the overhang of active litigation, and XRP can move forward with its legal status clearly defined in the United States.

The distinction her court made—that the manner of token sales matters more than the token itself- could shape regulatory enforcement and even influence how lawmakers draft future crypto legislation. For XRP, this could pave the way for renewed exchange listings, deeper institutional adoption, and enhanced global integration into payment systems. For Ripple, the decision affirms its business model while clearing a major regulatory hurdle, positioning the company to accelerate its operations and partnerships. What Happens Next? At this stage, all that remains is for Ripple and the SEC to submit their notices of appeal withdrawal. Once filed, the case will be formally closed, and no further legal proceedings will follow. As Jungle Inc Crypto News pointed out, “Her decision stands as law,” signaling a definitive end to years of courtroom battles. With both parties now ready to move on , this moment marks a rare sense of closure in an industry often marked by regulatory ambiguity. For Ripple, for XRP holders, and the broader crypto ecosystem, dropping the appeals will represent not just the end of a case, but the beginning of a new chapter.
