Addressing the factors that might impact a potential settlement between the two parties, attorney Deaton pointed out the significance of the ongoing Coinbase vs. SEC lawsuit. He explained that if the judge in the Coinbase case grants the exchange"s motion to dismiss, it would indicate that token sales on the exchange are not subject to U.S. securities laws, although the crypto staking aspect remains part of the legal proceedings.


He explained in a post,“The only way Ripple and the SEC (could) settle before the end of the year is if Judge Failla grants the Coinbase motion to dismiss or partially grants it – finding token sales on an exchange in a blind bid/ask transaction do not fall under U.S. securities laws”

Their opposition was rooted in the argument that the agency had strayed from the established legal perspective, specifically regarding the application of the Howey Test to XRP token sales.


The SEC initiated a lawsuit against Ripple, CEO Brad Garlinghouse and co-founder Chris Larsen in December 2020, causing several exchanges to remove XRP to avoid potential legal complications. However, after the Torres" ruling, many of these exchanges indicated their intention to relist the token or explore such possibilities in the future.
