YEREVAN (CoinChapter.com) — The XRP community is waiting for the United States Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) decision on appealing the Ripple lawsuit. As the deadline approaches, discussions about the securities regulator’s next steps in the Ripple vs. SEC case fill the crypto industry.

“I assume it’s taking them a long time to make an internal decision. It’s a slow-moving bureaucracy. It was not my experience that, if they’d reached a decision, they’d be delaying it for no good reason,”

declared Marc Fagel, a former SEC lawyer, for instance, stressing the importance of this case for the SEC’s standing in crypto regulation.

Ripple’s executives, including CEO Brad Garlinghouse and CLO Stuart Alderoty, have not pursued further appeals. They secured a stay order from the court, protecting Ripple from a $125 million fine until the appeal is resolved.
