In order to have certain papers sealed, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and Ripple have pushed their petitions to the court. The motions for preliminary injunction are related to these documents.

In an earlier report, Coingape stated that the lawyer had released a new filing timetable for the XRP litigation.

The court's decision regarding the Summary Judgement in the XRP lawsuit has not yet been made public. To secure the decision in its favor, Ripple has made one final step.

In order to seal proper documentation, the letter says that the defendants must file this omnibus letter petition. The SEC and Defendants filed the aforementioned documents on September 13, October 18, and November 30.

Additionally, it stated that the defendant almost never requests redactions to the summary judgment briefs. While only minor statement revisions are sought. Ripple drew attention to specifically targeted redactions to a few exhibits and requests, some of which are extremely private and critical.

ABOUT THE CASE

the U.S. in December 2020 The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) sued Ripple Labs, the organization that created the XRP token (XRP-USD), complaint alleges that Ripple and its past and current chief executives had already been undertaking an unlicensed $1.3 billion securities providing by trying to sell XRP, which Ripple's creators formed in 2012.

Since Ripple Labs is a recognized American business, the SEC can take legal action over them, unlike some other significant currencies that are established abroad or bitcoin (BTC-USD), whose founder is unidentified.

In reality, Ethereum (ETH-USD), the sec cryptocurrency, is no different from XRP in terms of unlicensed securities, posing the issue of how the SEC grants them a pass. This is a component of Ripple's primary justifications.

SEC chairman Garry Gensler is deferring to it for the time being. Additionally, Ripple claims that the SEC lacks authority over XRP tokens because many transactions have indeed been acquired and traded on forex markets.

The “Investment of Money” component of the Howey test has been met, according to the SEC, because Ripple has traded its XRP token in exchange for “money.” This test establishes if an asset qualifies as a security or not. Furthermore, the SEC contends that Ripple management was aware that XRP purchases and trades did not conform to the Howey Test's tenets.

One of the exclusive groups of large-scale cryptocurrencies, XRP was unable to set a new record peak even during the bullish trend of 2020–2021. The SEC has really harmed the individuals they were supposed to protect, the investors, as the action caused the price of XRP to plummet while portraying cryptocurrency owners the main sufferers in the narrative.
