SEC Ends Lawsuit Against Ripple, Company to Pay $125 Million Fine
UNITED STATES, AUG 7 – The SEC and Ripple agreed to dismiss their appeals, ending a nearly five-year dispute that included a $125 million fine and clarified XRP’s regulatory status.
- On August 7, 2025, Ripple Labs and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission filed a joint stipulation to withdraw appeals, ending their nearly five-year legal dispute.
- The SEC first sued Ripple in December 2020, accusing XRP sales of unregistered securities, with Judge Analisa Torres’s 2023 decision clarifying that sales on public exchanges were not securities.
- Following the appeals were withdrawn, XRP rose 4.3% to $3.07 on Thursday and broke through resistance at 3.10000.
- Entering the enforcement phase, Ripple must pay a $125 million civil penalty and each side will bear their own legal fees.
- Attention now turns to whether both parties will meet the court-imposed August 15, 2025, deadline for filing a joint status update.
