↑ 0%The Security and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) case against Ripple has concluded, according to that company’s CEO. In a post Wednesday (March 19) on X, Brad Garlinghouse wrote that the commission had dropped its appeal in its case against the blockchain company, the latest in a string of cryptocurrency enforcement efforts called off by the regulator since President Donald Trump took office. “This is it — the moment weʼve been waiting for,” Garlinghouse wrote. “The SEC will drop its appeal — a resounding victory for Ripple, for crypto, every way you look at it.”
The US Securities and Exchange Commission's dismissal of its years-long lawsuit against Ripple Labs, the developer of the XRP Ledger blockchain network, is a "victory for the industry," Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse said at Blockworks' 2025 Digital Asset Summit in New York.
According to All Things XRP's predictions, Ripple may be on the verge of announcing a highly anticipated IPO, unlocking new investment opportunities.
XRP is positioning itself as a quantum-ready blockchain, proactively securing its infrastructure before quantum computing disrupts the industry. As quantum technology advances, XRP’s early focus on quantum resistance could give it a competitive edge in the evolving financial landscape. While XRP is already optimized for fast and scalable cross-border payments, the rise of quantum machines introduces both risks and opportunities.The XRP Ledger, created by Ripple, represents a significant advancement in blockchain technology. Unlike traditional blockchain networks that rely on mining, XRP Ledger uses a unique consensus protocol to process transactions within 3-5 seconds while maintaining high-security standards. This system has revolutionized cross-border payments by offering financial institutions a fast, cost-effective solution for international transfers.Osama Bari, Chief Technology Officer at D24 Fintech Group, said, “Quantum computers leverage immense processing power to solve complex mathematical problems exponentially faster than classical computers. Algorithms like Shor’s Algorithm could break traditional encryption methods used in current blockchain networks, including the XRP Ledger
This shift has especially benefited XRP, which caters to enterprise users, particularly as Ripple unveiled an institutional DeFi roadmap in February.
