Lawyer Fred Rispoli advises against panicking over a potential SEC appeal in the Ripple case, stating that any ruling likely won’t happen before 2026 and won’t immediately affect XRP. He noted that the chances of the SEC appealing recent court decisions have increased after a recent development in which Judge Torres ruled Ripple should pay $125 million, instead of the $2 billion originally sought. Ripple and the SEC have agreed to place 111% of the judgment into a trust, to be paid only 30 days after the appeal deadline or once the appeal concludes. Source: Coingape
