(6/🧵) July 2023: Torres Gives XRP “Partial Clarity”…. Just Enough for Retail Hype, Not Institutions
Judge Torres ruled:
•XRP sold to retail = NOT a security ✅
•XRP sold to institutions = Security ❌
•Fine = $125M (when SEC wanted $2B+)
Think about that:
✅ Ripple wins hype
❌ Institutions stay sidelined
🔒 The case stays open
That’s narrative control.
