Last week, Ripple’s CEO, Brad Garlinghouse, made the triumphant announcement that the SEC had dropped its appeal without conditions.
Although he declared that this meant the case was finally over after a prolonged battle that began in late 2020, there were some misconceptions and misunderstandings about whether it had actually concluded. Now, though, Stuart Alderoty cleared the air.

Recall that US courts slapped Ripple last year with a $125 million penalty regarding XRP’s unclear status. However, the agency appealed as it initially sought $2 billion, which was far off before it withdrew its filing last week.
Now, though, Ripple’s Chief Legal Officer, Stuart Alderoty, informed that Ripple has also agreed to drop its cross-appeal. This means that the Securities and Exchange Commission will keep even less than half of the $125 million the courts ordered – just $50 million.
Alderoty informed that the amount is already in an interest-bearing escrow account in cash. The remaining $75 million will be returned to Ripple.
Although this is now subject to Commission vote, Alderoty seems convinced that this is the end of the lawsuit as he said this would be his last update on the topic, ever.
Unlike last week’s immediate surge after Garlinghouse’s announcement, when XRP jumped from $2.3 to $2.6 in minutes, this time, the asset remains relatively calm. It has failed to break above the $2.5 resistance and remains inches below it.
