The memo that is alleged to have been written on July 25, 2024, lists down four points of discussion for the meeting: The institution and settlement activities of injunctive actions, the issues of resolution of the litigation claims, and issues relating to enforcement proceedings. Due to this, many XRP supporters and the holders of this digital currency along with the lovers of crypto have embarked on predicting that the SEC may be cozied up to come to an agreement with Ripple soon.
