This decision had an immediate effect on the price of XRP, which nearly doubled in a day. However, the SEC has since formally appealed this decision, with Ripple opposing the appeal. This legal battle has become one of Ripple’s largest expenses, with CEO Brad Garlinghouse revealing that the legal bill had reached $200 million as of Tuesday.
In the midst of this legal back-and-forth, ChatGPT, a popular AI-based chatbot, was asked about its perspective on the case. The AI suggested that legal precedents from other cryptocurrency-related lawsuits could influence the outcome, although it noted that these past decisions have been mixed. It also raised the possibility of a settlement before the case concludes.
This sentiment was echoed by Marc Fagel, a former SEC Regional Director, who suggested that a settlement would only be appealing to the SEC if the remaining claims against Ripple were high risk.
Despite the ongoing lawsuit, Ripple remains committed to fighting it through. In an interview with CNBC on Tuesday, Monica Long, President of Ripple, declared their intention to see the lawsuit to its conclusion. This stance is reflective of a larger issue within the cryptocurrency industry as companies like Binance and Coinbase (NASDAQ:COIN) face similar lawsuits from the SEC.
As this legal battle unfolds, new projects in the cryptocurrency market continue to emerge. One such project is InQubeta ($QUBE), which combines blockchain technology and artificial intelligence (AI) to provide an accessible investment platform. The project, operating on the Ethereum blockchain, aims to democratize AI investments, a field traditionally reserved for institutional investors and high-net-worth individuals.
InQubeta’s gradational pricing strategy during its presale offers investors the potential to grow their capital by up to 400%, making it an attractive alternative for those disheartened by Ripple’s legal troubles. This innovative approach has attracted a diverse range of investors, including Bitcoin whales looking for alternative investment opportunities.
As Ripple’s legal battle continues, it remains to be seen how this will shape the future of cryptocurrencies and their regulation in the U.S. Meanwhile, new projects like InQubeta continue to push the boundaries of what’s possible within the industry.
