SEC removes Ripple lawsuit from website amid ongoing case

SEC removes Ripple lawsuit from website amid ongoing case

The US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has removed references to its lawsuit against Ripple (CRYPTO:XRP) from its website, leading to speculation about a potential case dismissal.

Legal experts, however, have confirmed that the lawsuit remains active on the official PACER system, indicating that no formal resolution has been reached.

The case has been a significant topic in the cryptocurrency community since it was filed four years ago, with rumors of settlements often causing fluctuations in the price of Ripple’s XRP token.

Following President Trump's election win in November, XRP saw a surge of over 400%, as many anticipated that the lawsuit might be dropped under the new administration.

Despite this optimism, the SEC recently appealed against Ripple's previous court ruling, suggesting that the legal battle could continue for some time.

Social media users have reacted to the SEC's website changes, with influencer John Squire questioning whether this marks the end of Ripple's legal troubles.

“Is Ripple Free from the SEC? Searched for ‘Ripple’ in the SEC’s litigation section and… No results!” he noted.

Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse has been vocal about his criticisms of former SEC Chair Gary Gensler, suggesting that the prolonged nature of the case has been unwarranted.

While some commentators highlighted that other lawsuits against crypto entities remain visible on the SEC's site, legal professionals pointed out that these website changes do not affect the ongoing court proceedings.

One attorney emphasised that “the SEC website does not matter,” reiterating that the appeal is still active in court records.

As of now, Ripple has requested an extension to file its appeal brief by April 16, 2025, and industry experts believe it is only a matter of time before this lawsuit reaches a conclusive end.

At the time of reporting, the XRP (XRP) price was $3.09.
