Hot Take: Ripple’s “victory party” is a temporary celebration amidst ongoing legal battles
Despite some legal wins, Ripple’s CEO Brad Garlinghouse’s announcement of a “community celebration” on September 29 in NYC is more of a morale booster than a definitive victory. The recent mixed ruling by District Judge Analisa Torres grants partial judgment to the SEC but also denies certain claims. While the event will undoubtedly gather Ripple’s community and investors, it’s clear that the company is still navigating a complex legal maze. The upcoming trial and ongoing legal proceedings suggest that Ripple’s fight for full vindication is far from over. The “victory party” serves as a momentary pause to regroup and celebrate the battles won, even as the war continues.
