No, the SEC Won’t Hold XRP Hostage Until 2026—Lawyer Laughs Off Delay Drama 😂

by

Our multi-chinned protagonist, XRP, nears the denouement in its sordid ballet with that stern, bespectacled spinster—the SEC—while a certain legal Talleyrand, unfazed by the jitterings of public squares (both literal and digital), heartily debunks the kvetching over interminable delay. The champagne may very well remain chilled, for optimism bubbles anew! 🍾

XRP Awaits Judge’s Pen, Not Purgatory: Counselor Scoffs at Snails

There buzzes a most curious optimism in the hothouse of crypto, as one learned legal sage takes the stage—his quill sharpened and social media ablaze. Anxiety, that rascal, whispers of the XRP case with the SEC meandering on till the sun rises in 2027, but Mr. Bill Morgan—whose wit one suspects is as sharp as his suit—dispels such fancies with the effortless flick of a seasoned barrister. On June 22, after encountering a particularly dramatic user on X (formerly Twitter, presently a gladiator pit), Morgan pronounced: “Delay? My dear, the calendar is not so cruel.”

Let us linger on Morgan’s logic, and do fetch me a chaise longue: such tragic longueurs are improbable unless, by some cosmic jest, Judge Torres dismembers the latest joint motion, spurns common sense, and both parties, fists clenched, go galloping off to their appellate destinies. In short, he says, not likely—unless your crystal ball is particularly cracked.

In a fetching update—filed June 12—the petitioners request their fiscal slap be gently reduced from the ungainly sum of $125 million to a more manageable $50 million. Oh, and please, Your Honor, may we lift this pesky injunction? “Exceptional circumstances,” they plead, their pockets trembling.
If denied, expect courtroom choreography to continue, with appeals pirouetting for an encore.

Morgan, whose command of improbable outcomes rivals that of chess grandmasters predicting Fool’s Mate, reassures that, barring divine whimsy on the bench, such marathon litigation is as likely as a moonwalk in galoshes. Confidence quickens. (Or, in legal parlance: “We’ll probably be okay, guys.”)

The whole performance—starting in 2020, lest anyone risk mistaking the SEC for a model of swiftness—waltzes around that perennial riddle: Is XRP the financial equivalent of a lollipop or a security? 👨‍⚖️

Crypto onlookers, never short on opinions or popcorn, interpret these shenanigans as modest progress toward elusive “regulatory clarity”. Markets nervously check their reflections, while Ripple’s own Brad Garlinghouse, surely daydreaming in boardrooms, imagines XRP seizing 14% of the mighty SWIFT’s payments within five years—no small ambition for a token that’s endured more court time than an overzealous tennis ball. 🎾
