Will the court grant Ripple Summary Judgement?

As per Ripple’s motion, the commission’s opposition brief confirms that Ripple’s motion for Summary Judgement should be granted. The SEC is unable to show any offer or even sale of XRP much less from 2013 to 2020 as it alleges.

The commission failed to present that XRP was an offer or sale of an investment contract and why it is a security under federal securities laws.

John Deaton, Amicus Curiae in the XRP lawsuit mentioned that Ripple has defended itself against the SEC’s massive overreach. He added that Ripple has maintained to be in line with the law i.e something that the judge also mentioned.
