$XRP The tension-filled drama continues to escalate in the seemingly endless legal battle between the SEC and Ripple. The SEC, the U.S. securities watchdog under the leadership of Gary Gensler, seems unable to accept the previous court decision that only fined Ripple $125 million. Like a tiger smelling blood, the SEC filed an appeal, asserting that the fine was far from enough.

Allegations of hidden personal interests behind these massive demands add layers of intrigue to the legal maze.

From all those issues, we have yet to obtain a valid source, except regarding the appeal.
