Binance Case: The SEC and Binance jointly filed a complaint on February 10, requesting a 60-day stay, citing the potential impact on the Crypto Task Force resolution. Coinbase Case: The SEC has requested an extension of 28 days and responded to the Coinbase (Coin) move for dialogue appeal. The SEC also referred to the Cryptographic Task Force and possible resolution.
These court filings promoted optimism that the SEC could withdraw its appeal in Ripple case. However, the SEC was able to wait for confirmation of Paul Atkins before the court case. Ripple must file an appeal-related reply brief by April 16th. A deadline may occur after Atkins confirmation.
XRP price trends: breakouts and attractive emotions behind Spot-ETF
The outlook for the nearest price depends on the SEC’s appeal strategy in Ripple case and XRP Spot ETF approval.
