According to FinBold, the long-running legal battle between Ripple and the SEC concluded in 2025, with both parties dismissing all remaining claims. Ripple agreed to a $125 million civil penalty for past institutional XRP sales, while the court upheld that XRP is not a security when traded on secondary markets. The SEC withdrew its appeal, and Ripple dropped its cross-appeal, signaling the end of the case. The resolution coincided with a shift in U.S. policy toward greater crypto regulatory clarity. XRP briefly rallied to the $3 range after the announcement but has since traded in a range-bound pattern, currently at $1.93.
