The case could end up in favor of Ripple and XRP if, as Garlinghouse predicts, the fine will be in millions instead of billions. He predicts that the case might be concluded by summer this year. 

The importance of clear regulations in the cryptocurrency space is underscored by Garlinghouse’s statement regarding XRP possibly becoming the first digital asset in the US to be fully regulated. 

The potential for XRP to be more widely used and integrated into existing financial systems depends on whether it comes out of this legal process with a well-defined regulatory framework.

The SEC’s allegations, dating back to December 2020, accused Ripple of conducting unregistered securities offerings through its XRP token sales. Ripple chose to contest these charges unlike many of its competitors.

In a recent CNBC interview, Garlinghouse described the SEC’s actions as “embarrassing” and affirmed Ripple’s confidence in the case’s legal and factual merits. Although Ripple is facing some tough legal challenges, it has received support from a number of parties, including key players in the industry like Coinbase.

Ripple’s unwavering commitment to dispute the SEC’s accusations emphasizes both its dedication to regulatory compliance and the broader implications for the cryptocurrency ecosystem. As the legal case battle nears its end, the members of the crypto community are eagerly awaiting the judge’s decision, which could be a turning point in crypto regulation.
