Ripple & SEC just ended one of crypto's longest battles -XRP's legal overhang is officially gone.

Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse announced Ripple is dropping its cross-appeal, with the SEC expected to do the same. This comes after Judge Analisa Torres rejected a motion by both parties one day earlier

The lawsuit-which began in December 2020-has hung over XRP's legitimacy and institutional use. Closing this case removes the final major U.S. legal uncertainty, giving investors and developers clearer direction.

$XRP surged ~5%, trading near $2.15 on June 27

ETH/BTC ticked up modestly on the regulatory relief

Analysts say this clarity could reinvigorate XRP utility partnerships and on-ramp efforts

Ripple will now prioritize global payment tech and ledger expansion, while XRP could see renewed interest from on-ramps, exchanges, and institutional players. Watch listings and corporate integrations next.
