Ripple’s SEC case “endgame” speculated after major date, but how is XRP behaving?

• Ripple case with SEC facts expected to trickle in on September 19

• The case will have wide impacts on XRP and the broader crypto

• XRP is recovering but remains in consolidation mode

The Ripple v. SEC case could get an interesting twist on September 19. It is the day that the parties submit open redacted briefs that will support the summary judgment of the case. Afterward and before the end of the year, lawyers from both sides will discuss. The negotiations will culminate in refining the briefs for case determination. Will this mark the end of the long-standing conflict between the regulator and Ripple?

Pro-XRP activist and lawyer Jeremy Hogan is excited about the new date, which is slightly a week away. In a tweet on Friday, Hogan hinted that the date marks “the endgame.” In the tweet, he did note that it is the day the public will know what each party holds.

There is an interesting fact why any development between SEC and Ripple is crucial for now. For a long time, investors have waited for the case’s conclusion. Ripple has made a majority of small wins. That has led to speculations it will outwit the regulator in defending that XRP cannot be classified as a security. XRP’s price has been tied to the projected ruling. The ruling will have wider ramifications on the broader crypto sector.
