CoinVoice has learned that, according to Cryptodnes, Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse expressed his strong hope to work with the new SEC leadership, which has sparked speculation in the industry that the lawsuit between the SEC and Ripple may be dismissed or settled.
Legal analyst Jeremy Hogan stated that the case may be resolved by April or May, although procedural requirements may extend the timeline. Under the current government's leadership, the SEC is expected to make a final effort before a leadership change. Given that the deadline for submitting opening statements is January 15, the agency may attempt to influence the direction of the case.
However, industry insiders expect that the incoming pro-crypto leadership is likely to create a more favorable environment for Ripple, and a positive outcome could pave the way for the approval of an XRP ETF. [Original link]
