In a decisive move that reinforces confidence in its internal strength, Ripple Labs has officially ruled out any plans to go public in 2025 — despite having finally resolved its prolonged legal dispute with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
During a recent interview with CNBC, Ripple President Monica Long made it clear that the company’s financial health is solid and there’s no urgent need to pursue an initial public offering (IPO) at this stage. “We’re in a strong cash position,” she emphasized, noting that Ripple is well-capitalized and doesn't require a public listing to gain either funding or visibility.
Echoing this sentiment, Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse stated unequivocally, “We’re not seeking outside capital.” Garlinghouse further explained that the company is more focused on building and expanding its global utility-based blockchain infrastructure than on navigating the demanding world of public markets.
This announcement comes as a surprise to many in the crypto space who anticipated that the SEC settlement would fast-track Ripple’s path to an IPO. But instead of capitalizing on the legal victory with a Wall Street debut, Ripple has chosen stability over spectacle, opting to continue operating as a private entity while refining its ecosystem and enhancing cross-border payment solutions.
Ripple's decision reflects a growing trend in crypto: successful blockchain firms realizing that sustainable innovation doesn’t always need Wall Street backing. With its native token $XRP remaining one of the most prominent digital assets in the market, Ripple is betting on strategic growth rather than market hype.
For XRP holders and the broader crypto community, this move could spell a sharper focus on partnerships, utility, and adoption — without the noise that often comes with IPOs and shareholder expectations.
Ripple is staying private, powerful, and committed to building the future of finance on its own terms.
