The Impact of the XRP vs SEC Lawsuit on Ripple and XRP
The XRP price has rebounded to its pre-lawsuit value of $0.51, but attorney John Deaton believes Ripple’s trajectory would have been stronger without the SEC lawsuit. Here are the key points:
- Ripple’s progress and projects related to the XRPLedger have been hindered by the lawsuit.
- Deaton suggests that Coinbase may have pursued Ripple for acquisition instead of Circle if not for the lawsuit.
- The SEC lawsuit has slowed down Ripple’s project advancements, according to Deaton.
- XRP’s price was negatively impacted, leading to delistings on several crypto exchanges.
- Ripple’s partnership with Mastercard has positioned it favorably in cross-border payments.
Despite the obstacles, Ripple has maintained its price level and garnered strong community support.
