- Ongoing lawsuit hinted at Ripple winning the case.
- Key entity of the XRP ecosystem called quits.
- CTO of Ripple teasing Musk on Twitter.
The Ongoing lawsuit between SEC and Ripple Labs has always been the driving factor of XRP prices. The recent developments have left XRP holders’ attorney more confident about the Judge rejecting SEC’s Summary Judgment Motion. The extended lawsuit has always played with XRP prices, similar to its Chief Technology Officer (CTO), David Schwartz.
David, CTO of Ripple Labs, congratulated Elon Musk in his playful manner by tweeting,” I’m taking XRP private at $420. Funding secured.” The tweet made by David shed more light to XRP, exciting the token fans. To balance out the optimism, Coil, surprisingly called out from the XRP ecosystem. Coil was a key entity in the ecosystem and one of the most significant entities in XRP’s ecosystem. Out of the blue, it announced to cease its operations. All these factors made XRP shake up a bit.
