Ripple’s Web of Intrigue

by

It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a cryptocurrency in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a lawsuit. And so, the Ripple vs SEC case continues to twist and turn, a veritable maze of intrigue and speculation.

A Cunning Plan, Perhaps?

A certain crypto expert, Jesse of Apex Crypto Consulting, has posited that Ripple’s true intentions may be far more grandiose than a simple legal battle. 🤔 He suggests that Ripple is in league with the great powers of finance, the central banks and the IMF, and that its ultimate goal is to supplant the likes of SWIFT and establish XRP as a global reserve currency. A bold plan, indeed! 💸

But, alas, not everyone is convinced. The esteemed Bill Morgan, a legal expert of some renown, has rejected the notion that the lawsuit is a mere ruse, a clever ploy to keep XRP’s price low while Ripple expands its global reach. 🙅‍♂️

A Rebuttal from Bill Morgan

“I have never agreed with this theory,” Mr. Morgan declared, “even if the recent joint motions for indicative rulings seemed to unnecessarily delay the end of the litigation by three months (and counting) on a hope and a prayer.” 🙏

I have never agreed with this theory even if the recent two weak joint motions for indicative rulings seemed to unnecessarily delay the end of the litigation by three months (and counting) on a hope and a prayer.

And so, the debate rages on. The crypto community is abuzz with speculation, as some argue that Ripple would never voluntarily enter a lawsuit, only to play out a clever plan behind the scenes. 🤷‍♀️ Others see the delays and motions as mere standard legal hurdles, and not part of a grand scheme to manipulate public perception or XRP’s price.

Meanwhile, Ripple co-founder Arthur Britto has made a rare public appearance, sparking rumors of a major behind-the-scenes move. 🤫 And with both Ripple and the SEC moving to drop their appeals, some believe that a significant development may be imminent.

The Case Continues, Despite Speculation

And so, the lawsuit drags on, a never-ending saga of twists and turns. Despite rumors that the case may soon come to a close, a legal expert has cautioned that these decisions take longer to finalize. ⏰

Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse has revealed that the company is dropping its appeal, in an effort to officially close this chapter. But Attorney Fred Rispoli notes that Ripple’s swift move, just a day after Judge Torres’ ruling, suggests that it had already planned for this outcome, likely coordinating with the SEC to move forward smoothly. 📈
