Overall, the XRP whale transactions amid these legal maneuvers have gained significant traction among industry participants globally.

On the other hand, the court has granted the motion to amend the order pertaining to judgment and stay in the XRP lawsuit, per the latest California district court filing in the re Ripple Labs Inc litigation. Both parties in the lawsuit collectively agreed that there was no specific reason to delay the judgment in the lawsuit, given class claims were resolved.
