Ripple (XRP) has been suffering series of hindrances from regulatory body (The US SEC) since late last year. The attack led to a litigation in a US court leading to panic sales of XRP from majority of their investors. The litigation in the US saw the co-founder of XRP who happens to be the CEO of Stellar XLM sold his XRP. This created more fear among the investors before XRP started to gain the market loss back in January.

Another report came out a week ago that the UK treasury has classified XRP as non-security asset and this is different from the law suit by the US SEC filed against XRP.

Will this mean the XRP might be back to it's position in the Cryptocurrency community soon?

Not much of difference in the price movements of XRP in the one month chart but if we take a look at the 3 month chart then there is huge huge hindrance on the prices for sure. Once the trust lost then it will be hard to recover from it for any cryptocurrency assets and also it is getting delisted from most possible trading platforms will worsen the condition more.

In my opinion, xrp will survive as they have been able to get rulings in their favor from many financial authorities around the world and new SEC chairman is also pro crypto as far as i have read and lastly ripple is a big corporation now with years of market experience and linkages, I think it is here to stay.

Ripple was doing pretty well before the lawsuit was filed against them, but since then it's been the other way round, Ripple wouldn't prolly bounce back to its previous levels, but I also don't think it'll plunge to zero, but having said all that, what will happen will depend on the verdict of the lawsuit, if it eventually goes in favor of XRP, then I think there's hope for the coin.

Ripple lost quite a lot of Investors, so it's going to take a while before they are able to build that sort of community again, but it is what it is and if the developers are still determined then anything is achievable.

Ripple will survive as it's adopted in too many corporate services and integrated into many eco-systems. So it could be cheaper to keep it alive than rewrite everything. But Ripple will never win the hearts of the crypto community.

Ripple in a long time may prove strong by coming back but at the meantime with the law suit still hanging on their neck, I don't see a magic happening and the issue is made difficult because of the sale of the coins of the cofound. Many whales will also follow up by selling their coins. This can cause panic selling and the price may drop more

Yes they will if all of the document that sec is finding in them will be given, because of this sec issue the price of xrp is being dump so heavily we all think that xrp will continue to pump last year and it is still on its 3rd spot in the ranking but now the last time I saw it, it goes down to the forth. CEO might sold his share maybe he wants to have fund for the case because it might needed a lot of money for the trial, xrp will survive I believe in that, but the price like last year cannot be achieve this year.

I think they will survive, but they will pay hefty amount to get back in the game. If they violated big time, then, it is time to pay what is owed to the government. But I don't think XRP team will let this platform dies, as there are so many stakeholders or partnerships already. I hope they will rectify this very soon.

The lawsuit that already taken by SEC has been making ripple to lose a lot of liquidity.
When crypto got bad news and so many people will be leaving it and that's happening with ripple right now. So many US exchange site has been contributing a lot to the liquidity of ripple but this time it's disappear.

Its logic, but i dont think they can win in the court against SEC. And if its happen, XRP may cant survive anymore. Also if theres opportunity ripple can win against SEC, many exchange already decided to delist XRP, and maybe it will take time to list it back and make XRP price recovery.

Ripple got experienced difficult things that have not been resolved at this time, which makes XRP survive because of the large community support, as long as get that support, I believe that under any circumstances Ripple will survive in crypto. we can only see what XRP's progress will look like in the future

It is still 50-50 in my opinion since the case of XRP hasn't resolved yet and we don't know what would be the outcome of that lawsuit against them.  If we set aside the US SEC allegation, with the XRP fund alone, they can survive to deliver their roadmaps.  Aside from that the company also have XRP holding that they can dump anytime they wanted to fund their upcoming projects.

It will be solved when the court can decide about the illegal security token offering that has been running by ripple. That means if until the court will be releasing its decision and ripple will always be getting a lot of uncertainties, A lot of attacks from the its investors and community, and this will be affecting the price of ripple gradually.

The former CEO of XRP sold all of his holdings and when the lawsuit was public majority of the institutional investors also started to dump the coin, with some of the exchanges delisting them especially for US users, it will be difficult for them to gain attraction once again and how they are planning to sort the issue is unknown and it wont be that easy from what i understand.

Sooner the better, XRP-BTC (https://trade.kucoin.com/XRP-BTC) market right now is althou good but still i think its too slow. Would like to have a bull run towards a new ATH

I still see XRP coming back to top. They have been pretty much the most active altcoin that I know of. Integration after integration actually. Volumes on exchange platforms really have plummeted after the issue arise. Im still holding XRP (https://trade.kucoin.com/XRP-BTC) coz I believe it will recover any time soon.

And it's only a matter of time before Cardano overtake them on their position when the news of SEC suing Ripple, there's no positive news now coming up on Ripple, what you posted about the UK treasury is another bad news that will add to Ripple slipping down to its position, if there is no positive update until the middle of the year, Ripple will find itself out of the top 10, and it's going to be a major climb again.

Ripple is already fishy few years ago, it is a product of pump and dump, purely hype. I don't have clue why they have still lot of supporters back then? Or they are just trolls?
A lot of people keep telling before to avoid Ripple. Look at now, a lot of people got REKT or trapped with a huge loss.

For me, better to move on and avoid to hoping for Ripple, there are lot new altcoins now that is more better in Ripple.

We have several Ripple threads already, we can continue this type of discussion through those threads. Just like these two topics about it.

• Will Ripple (XRP) price will it recover or will it dump more? (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5312318.0)
• Ripple is dying (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5310868.0)

I don't know, only time will tell. I can only appreciate the quality of XRP in surviving the current problems. besides, even with such pressure, the price of XRP also did not fall that far, in fact, there are still many communities that believe that XRP will bounce back. however, I am currently starting to think that XRP will survive.

as long as their network is still operational, XRP will survive. They only have trouble with America anyway, so outside of that they're safe. There are still many large exchanges outside America that support ripple. so there's no need to worry about this. But what matters is whether ripple can still get back on track once the SEC issues are resolved. Everyone knows that the market is currently in a bull market, and only XRP will not be affected by this. so if the problem is resolved, will the bull's impact affect the ripple. if so, this is great for making the situation better.

Ripple has been gone thru many challenges already throughout the years because of their main goal. What is happening right now to them is just one of it.

I'm not a Ripple holder but as I see it, I know that they will survive with what they are facing right now although I expect that more and more lawsuits or cases like this will be faced by them in the future. As long as there are supporters of the coin, the coin will survive and Ripple has a very huge community so I don't think that it will die just like that unless they will follow the footsteps of Bitconnect in some ways :D.

It is not about winning hearts though but the problem is that most of the exchanges are now delisting XRP trading which is the biggest worry because any coin has its value and worth based on the trading volume and the exchanges which allow its trading and XRP would have died by now if it was not ranked so high, in case you don't know it is the 5th biggest coin in the market despite facing all the backlash and problems regarding its operating status.

I have a feeling that things won't improve because obviously there is no way of that happening but there is a good chance that the stalemate kind of market continues while the price keeps dropping lower and lower with time.

When ever there is a problem there is always a solution, I believe XRP team will be able to get out of this trouble by complying with whatever the law wants, fine will just do right for them as they are old projects and there is enough money to get out of trouble

The worst scenario can happen, everything needs to end soon to look forward to the future. I see the current situation as people are starting to settle down and its prices are being supported, whoever knows what to expect when it comes down to the impact of the SEC. I no longer put my faith in it this time around because there are so many good opportunities in this market and it is not the only thing that is bringing us money, so that's why I sold out XRP to switch to another coin hold.

Only time can tell, those who are investing in Ripple despite of the lawsuit news believes that Ripple will survive but those who see this risk might think Ripple will fall in the future so they are pulling out their investment.

Your question is answerable by yes, no, or maybe, you can't expect one answer only as being an investor, you area always bias.

As for me, it could survive but it will be hard for it to regain the trust of most investors again. It's honestly hard to rely on coins that have issues these days. We could see it as a big risk. If Ripple could fix their cases as soon as possible, I guess it would be a big help in regaining the people's trusts for it but as what I have read, they are not facing another lawsuit.

So far, I see that big players are still investing in XRP and the trading volumes of XRP are still very huge and this suggests that too many people still trust in XRP and many people still believe that everything will be fine with XRP, but it all depends from the SEC and XRP, so for now, investing in XRP is a huge risk and therefore we need to wait a while until all these problems will be resolved and then after that it will already be clear what will happen with XRP, so do not rush for now.

Ripple is indeed experiencing a big problem, and we can see that Ripple's performance has also decreased. Even the Ripple market cap was
successfully passed by Polkadot, now is the tough time Ripple has to face. While this is true Ripple is only a problem in America, but I believe
that if the court ruling comes out and the SEC charges prove true it will affect Ripple outside America as well.

Whether Ripple will survive is a difficult question to answer, because anything can happen in the crypto world. But if you look at Ripple as one of
the old projects, it seems that Ripple's fundamentals are very strong. So it is very likely that Ripple will survive and still exist in the future.

I like this development, at least there are countries who favors Ripple here, and this will give some relief for investors.
UK and US are both big market, if Ripple will miss US due to their violation, but it's still good to have UK favor them, they will certainly survive.


The damage has been done, climbing back to the spot where XRP was rank before is hard, unless US would change their view.

I think yes after the SEC issue and the delisting of exchange the price drop hard but comes back again and now it's in the middle I really do think that they could survive, it's just my personal opinion but if you are not sure about it you can choose other cryptocurrency.

I think ripple still survive until now, but we never know when ripple can do that since the price can go lower anytime. We do not know if ripple can go back to the last position or not, but if the problem is solved, I am sure that ripple can convince the investor to come back to the project and invest their money.

But we will see later if ripple can still survive or it will go down for more. Only time will tell. I suggest you move on to the other coins, which have the potential to increase. You need to leave ripple for a while until the problem is solved.

It's UK and not US. Ripple was facing the problem on US and we also know that US can be considered as the crypto house too consider so many volume was coming from US.
Jay clinton will determine the future of ripple. It will not mean ripple go back again to the crypto community.
The decision that has taken by UK will not give any impact to the problem that faced by ripple and its executives.
This project illegally running ICO in the past and collected billions money from investors.

Now that the British have had their say, there is an even greater likelihood that everything will be fine and Ripple will pay a small fine. I think that the price will show good growth by the end of this year.

Agree, dont entry when market is too risky like this. Its better to entry after court ends and ripple win it. If they defeated at the court, i dont think XRP will have any future.

Agreed with your opinion, there are more adoption of this ripple coin with cooperate organizations even when it was sued by the US SEC, this shows that ripple will come back to fight for it rightful place soonest. Somewhere in Brazil, ripple coin is been accepted for good and services which means it adoption still growing. I wouldn't say the company won't win back the community but it will definitely take more time to do so.

Money can talk, for sure if the team are interested enough to create pressures to bail them out from this problem anything still possible since this project are mostly use by banks.

Banks always understand how business works, if they'll see good advantage it will not be hard for them to work this
things out and support the team to resolve this problem.

I hate to see that really. I have been a long time user of Ripple and they have one of the fastest transactions compared to almost any altcoin. As a trader I do not understand why there is so much panic among people just because SEC finds a reason to toast them. I mean Ripple is running for years and still the coin itself has no problems apart from the outside pressure.

Don't think there is a way back even after paying money because what they have lost is reputation and their image among investors which is not recoverable and I am not sure why they are being looked down but the truth is, they indeed are being looked down by everyone. Not going to buy any Ripple but what coins I hold I am not going to panic sell them either because I do not hold too many.

I am also very curious about this topic because XRP is keep on decreasing right now starting from it's rank, market capital, price and exchanges where it can be exchange.

I cannot blame those investors who are selling XRP as they are only doing what they think is right but base on what I see in the market, there is a big chance that XRP can still recover or survive in the future.

Who knows.. The lawsuit may take years to settle. In the mean time everyone will be stuck in this "limbo". But people are believing that ripple will be able to fight back and has an upper hand to win the lawsuit. Or the SEC will eventually drop it. Hence, they are buying as much as they can during this dip to maximize the profit. No doubt, if people don't lose their confidence and ripple does win the lawsuit, the price of XRP will skyrocket.
But once again, this is all speculation and the opposite might also happen.

Well I agree with you on this, but I worried if there is someone who will manipulate the price, as we know Ripple is a centralized project. I don't see the potential of this coin, that is why I sold them early. Indeed, the damage has been done, and the XRP coin will exist because even though the price is drop. Investors don't lose hope and they still holding some of their XRP because they believed that this is the right time to accumulate more XRP.

I think such a scenario is possible only after SEC comes off XRP.

I am suprised Ripple has survived as long as it did. The community was always split on Ripple. Already years ago it was under suspicion to be a Trojan horse of the banks. Then it is centralized and the token supply is not really limited. What can Ripple do that other projects cannot do better? There is a lot of better places to put your money if you want to bet on CEFI and DEFI connecting like Chainlink, Allianceblock or Ocean Protocol.

I also believe that this situation will not be a good time to invest on XRP. As we don't know what may happen on their SEC's lawsuit, it is like your funds are in hostage position if you will invest now on this coin. Though there may be possibility that they can get out of this mess, but I think it is better to invest in XRP once you see some light at the end of the tunnel. But right now, it is very risky, as SEC can totally shutdown their operations if they can't manage to come up with terms mandated by SEC.

SEC shutdown Ripple's operations? remember, Ripple is not a small project, this is a big project,
it will be very difficult for the SEC to stop the operation of Ripple, especially since this project has collaborated with several banks around the world,
the SEC will not be easy to fight Ripple, look at the current market situation, there are still many who believe in XRP,
because XRP will explode in the future after this.

I think XRP is a very strong coin, it can stabilize quickly when a dumping attack occurs. I'm sure he can return to their position, this is just my opinion

XRP have another issue with lawsuits in florida, this is new compares to the one on ground weeks ago now, this can be a big problem for this project, I just hope they end up standing strong like they always do, this space without XRP will sucks cos it's one of my favorite altcoin for trading

XRP is definitely not a strong coin but a manipulated coin that was supported by the Japanese investors so the company can possibly move their business to Japan when the legal suit against them is settled. However, I will advise you not to trust the price growth this coin provided because the CEO hold 45-70% of the coin so that it easy for him to manipulate the coin price as he wants.
Having said that, the coin will survive the US SEC lawsuit but will lose its reputation and people will see it just like how they see LTC

Strong for what? ripple can sustain just because it has a lot of premined coins that regularly dumped to the market to keep the company is alive.
Ripple can't sustain even longer again when SEC will be winning the case.
The only possible thing for ripple right now to return after SEC was losing the battle against this foundation. As long as the case is not yet finished and ripple will never see its future. So many times this foundation got accused by so many parties

Survive in what? even though the ripple was delisted to some known exchanges you can see its price right now that it will almost reach $0.3 for me I really think they already survive it. Well let's see what will happened in the next few weeks.

XRP can surely get out of their mess and bounceback strong given that they have one of the most dedicated fanbase in crypto. Some also prefer to use XRP for their usual crypto transactions I.E Withdrawal and Deposits for their speed.

KuCoin Exchange recently gave support for the coin by releasing a campaign that rewards users for Trading XRP (https://trade.kucoin.com/XRP-BTC)

Tho westerners arent fond of XRP anymore, Asia seems to be a fitting market for it.

to be honest in crypto this is commonplace, I've also heard that in 2017 bitcoin was banned in China which caused bitcoin to collapse in the middle of the year and rose at the end of 2017 to break everything, as well as what happened to xrp, anything can happen in this market. if they finish well it is not impossible that they will get better trust.

I am also feeling this will survive but this will take some long time because its not easy to handle this all if they will guilty then surely they have to face some big fines but most chances they will bounce back and try to improve issues which are creating problems for them if usa authorities ban this coin then still its good market available outside USA which is good for this coin specially few Asian based exchanges doing some positive for this coin which is good for his survival.

It will definitely find way soon to still survive in their situation, it may be hard now since they need to set their plan again on what to do next but there are still many who believes in it but  since they were Delisted in many exchange some already lose hope, only those who really plan in long term can still  managed to hold and bear the news and possible more delisting that about to happen.

We are not really sure if they are going to be surviving this, or do they plan on moving from the US to another location? Even that is going to affect them, because if they should leave the US and move to another country they are going to be affected since they will have start from the scratch.

Another problem they are having now is that a lot of exchanges including Coinbase, BitStamp, Okcoin and a lot of them have delisted XRP from their exchanges, a lot of investors are dumping their XRP tokens because of the fear of what will follow, the value has dropped heavily more than fifty percent.

in my opinion for now Ripple is still survive in cryptocurrency community, although many exchange have removed Ripple, but Ripple is still in the top 5 on coinmarketcap and even the price has increased 37.90% from the last 7 days, so of course this proves that Ripple will still survive in cryptocurrency community and there are still many people who believe to investing in Ripple, therefore I think now is the right time to invest in Ripple, because if Ripple gets a positive response or good news, then of course the price of Ripple will definitely increase very high and give you a big profit but with a big risk too, because if Ripple gets a negative response, then of course the price of Ripple will definitely go down.

I think they will survive, but it will be disaster for Ripple. Yeah it is definite that XRP team wont let this platform die but XRP needs to pay a rich amount to get back in the game again. All this causes will spread a panic thought the CMC and many investor will sell their coins in no time and that will cause a huge price drop.

Did you read last bad news about Ripple coin and still believe with survive from ripple coin? I think not any space for me to hold and buy Ripple coin because many time they get problem with SEC, now they cases will be justice until 22th February and keep waiting get bad news again or not, for me looking profit with other coin is better than get risk with ripple still cases with SEC.

There have already been examples in the cryptocurrency market where projects rose by almost a thousand percent during the day. So Ripple can catch up anyway if the lawsuit ends in the company's favor. But for now, we should refrain from taking action against Ripples.

In my opinion, the situation with them is not good at all, but still their chances of survival are quite high.

It should also be noted that many believe that the SEC itself is not unanimous about the approach to the case.

Ripple continues to evolve and continue to receive support from Japan. Yes, there are some problems, but I don’t think they can destroy the XRP.

The Chinese guys are crook and will do anything to pump dump XRP just the way Elon was doing with doge but XRP is as good as dead to me since last year. Despite the cofounder dumping his bags the way he likes, they still love it, perhaps some whale know that SEC statement was just a mere threat that will get settle when the time comes but still it's a gamble to me.
There are plenty alts out there that outperform XRP in short and long time, investors and traders should look into those gems than this waste effort coin.

I’m looking forward to a positive outcome in the Ripple case.

In fact, I think the answer should already be known to you. Look at what is happening with Ripple now, the project somehow keeps afloat, all the investors have not scattered. There was a large drain of coins from the team, but this is not surprising, they need to save the cost of the project at all costs. If the project has survived to this day, having all possible problems with regulators, then I am sure it has every chance of surviving and recovering.

Ripple will be able to catch up with any kind of court decisions, because I see no threat to the further circulation of the coin itself. The question is whether ripple is classified as a security and it is illegal for the executives of Ripple Labs to sell large quantities of these coins without proper registration. The maximum that can be is that the leaders of this company will pay large amounts of fines. However, this will have little or no effect on the coin itself.
And if you look at it, now she's not feeling so bad. At its current price of 0.54 cents, down from 0.28 cents earlier, that's not a bad thing.

The Ripple team does nothing to survive. I think Ripple's current price is totally scam. If we weren't in the bull market, the Ripple price would be at most $ 0.2. We can find much safer cryptocurrencies than Ripple if we want to have a good bullish period.

The future still uncertain for this project the battle from SEC still active.

Currently, it's giving some glimpse how big whales are trying to keep the value at this point to keep attracting investors, whatever the SEC Issue's outcome the clearer the future of this coin, by now, you should deal with deeper analysis as if you place your investment to this project risk is still high, be very aware of what future may bring to your money.

Dude, the support was coming from the investor of ripple that based on JAPAN. it's a common thing when those investors have been telling us if ripple has a lot of potential. When SEC will be winning the case and I'm sure the whole of exchange sites will be halting ripple to be traded by the traders and investors in the market.
We will see the result very soon dude. Be patience.

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and Ripple said this Monday,Feb. 15, 2021 that there’s little chance of settlement ahead of the expected trial of the blockchain payments firm (XRP) over alleged securities infractions. and Ripple has refused to comply saying the documents fall under attorney-client privilege and that the SEC’s request is “improper and lacks legal foundation.” The SEC may ask the court to compel Ripple to provide documents and related deposition testimony, the regulator said in the letter. But the fate of XRP will not depend on that, it will surely depends on the people who still believe in it.

I think day by day, XRP is still trying to survive at the market. We see that the price does not drop again as before, and it seems stable at $0.4-$0.5. But to break $0.6 or more, XRP needs more supports, especially from the investors and that will not be easy to convince that XRP can rise again. Maybe we should give more time to XRP and see what will happen to XRP. It is a hard time for XRP as the teams need to work hard for their project, and they still hope that the news can bring them a chance to rise again.

XRP received too much support as you can see how XRP army shill XRP on all social media despite a losing battle against SEC. XRP needs to settle down the issue with SEC in able to move forward and grow continuously. People will always make FUD about it incase XRP gain again momentum.

Guys, XRP went up. I really hope it’s $0.6 today

Yes Ripple is still in the edge , we are not sure if Ripple will be able to back from its place but I think it will takes time and years they will survive but the investors holding XRP will decrease and eventually the coin will be dump as well, so I converted my XRP now.

I think it'll take Ripple a long time to recover. But the attitude towards XRP has changed forever and now it'll be treated very carefully. It seems to pump sometimes, but Ripple isn't the same as before.

It looks like XRP can break 60 cents today or tomorrow. The fundamental of ripple is not so good and that makes the price movement of ripple is very small combined with the decrease that happened with ripple's liquidity.
When ripple was trading on various big exchange sites and it's very easy for ripple to be pumped but the delisting that happened on several exchange sites gave a very bad impact on the ripple.
It's quite difficult for ripple to break the resistance around 58 - 59 cents. If the bad news will come and it will be going back again to the 50 cents.

Yep, it is good to see that XRP is picking up its price by now. I don't think their investors and new investors are worried about their lawsuit, they are not winning yet but it sounds like people are just ignoring it. Well, that suppose to happen when anyway. These people aren't hopeless yet to see that XRP will be rallying back to the market again as they did before.

XRP is not really a good coin for me but XRP makes some help for me when doing the transfer and to save some fees. I know many we're using this as well, and I was also positive that XRP could still survive.

Maybe they desperate because their favourite coin is getting dump too deep before, and they are trying to invite people to invest in that project. If there is no good news from the project, the price will hard to increase back, and the project will get more support. But it is not the end for XRP because we can wait for another news later. Yes, people want to back to make a profit from XRP as before, but we do not know if XRP can do that again or not.

The XRP did not grow to $0.6 but hopefully after the trial there will be a rocket, as the SEC is more accusing the project’s executives than the company itself. By the way, I recently moved to the EXMO exchange, and there is a possibility of trading this token.

It is already destroyed candidly speaking and I am not sure what kind of support is gained by XRP in Japan but I do not really see anything good happening with XRP anytime soon.

I never heard of the PayBito exchange but they suspended XRP trading if the article is to be trusted: https://cointelegraph.com/news/us-crypto-exchange-suspends-xrp-trading-in-light-of-sec-lawsuit

With so much bad happening around XRP, it must be a challenging time to hold and invest into crypto which is why we clearly see the market cap, value and volume being decreased over time.

Why not? Its not an issue to huge company. Ripple coin deals with big companies and investors and their monetary policy dependes on central head which is a huge plus for SEC. It is a good sign to perfect future of this coin.

I usually use Doge, TRX and BCH when i am making transactions with lower fees to deposit in gambling sites and i only invested in it during the initial hype and i booked my profit long back and never bothered to invest in it again. The survival depends upon how well they can mitigate the issues they are facing from SEC if not it is not a bright future for them.

I don't think paying money is going to work now because the lawsuit is public as far as I know and they need to give proper reasoning to solve the accusation made against them, if they had answers at all, they would have already cleared the clouds on them by now. I don't see how ripple will survive but yeah its not going to die either, it will just get under the radar for most of the time now specially with new projects coming into the market.

We as crypto users shouldn't be too worried I think about what happens with the lawsuit because even if they lose or win, it only impacts the investors and long term holders but people who just use ripple as a currency won't be affected much by either them winning or losing.

There are players on casinos which accept ripple like stake or bitsler and all they care about is fast transactions so they will still use ripple regardless if they have an active lawsuit against them.

the ripple legal case keep coming to the ground,
The history of some other crypto teaches us that a drop in price of 70 percent does not mean the decline is over. Many other crypto assets continue to erode and become 0 in value.
if this case keep continue, i don't really think ripple have a chance to survive, but still, let's hope for the best !

You are looking at the bright side only which would obviously bring good results to ripple, what if the court will rule that Ripple is guilty of the charge?

What do you think will happen to the project?

On the 2nd of March Gary Gensler will be the new chairman for SEC. He's into crypto and knows very well what XRP and Ripple are.
Ripple will try to reach a settlement with the SEC and Gensler once he is announced (SEC denied a settlement earlier).
The SEC did not make a good impression at the pre-trial on the 22nd of February.

If it comes to a real court case, then it might take a few years until there is a decision, but both parties want to avoid such a long court case (especially Ripple, it will hold them from the bigger deals in the coming years).

So I guess that there will be a settlement between the SEC and Ripple in the next few months and then we will see the true value of XRP, probably past ATH.

Wave was doing really a long time under the steady gaze of the claim was documented against them, however from that point forward it's been the alternate route round, Ripple wouldn't prolly bob back to its past levels, yet I additionally don't think it'll plunge to nothing, yet having said all that, what will happen will rely upon the decision of the claim, on the off chance that it in the end goes for XRP, I believe there's potential for the coin.

Its all depends on trial decision if it was in favor of ripple sure they will get back high but if they settle they are going to slowly go down or barely survive.
as a coin they are not so special only their popularity helping it and new commers to crypto they see it cheap in top on marketcap they keep investing in.

XRP is constantly being said that it will rise in price, but that never happens. Therefore, it is better to pay attention to other cryptocurrencies, as they are constantly growing, unlike XRP, which hangs in one place.

I used to believe in these coins, but soon I became very disappointed in them, not even because of the litigation. More recently, a pump group was created for the XRP coin, they shaved all the hamsters and left the group, then I see that the owners of the company sell more than 19 million coins per month when the rate is on the highs. I think this coin was created in order to cut hamsters.

The recovery of ripple depends on the news that will be rolling out with SEC. If there will be a bad news and it will be a disaster for XRP and then so many people are still speculating the result from this case
this makes ripple still alive right now dude.
Ripple is still the same as it was before but the thing that make it different if ripple faced a very big problem and it's getting delisting from so many exchange sites.

XRP is too risky for now. It will either rise too high or too low. This will be determined by the court decision. I am looking forward to what will happen in the next days.

I believe the CEO himself is still doing everything to make things get alright in the end. I must tell you I see only him and his social media community alone on this till the end. Most of his stakeholders are the ones selling. You'll remember the STELLAR XLM CEO is a CO-CEO at RIPPLE but he sold all his XRP coins late last year leaving the CEO himself and the social community members that believe in to all the problems.

In my impression, I believe XRP team is confident that they will win on this situation. There are so many organizations or companies that have vested interest on this project. I don't think XRP team will not make a good fight for their platform. Though right now, still not safe to to invest on this project. Maybe, after they resolve their issue with SEC. We don't know what SEC's verdict will be on this project.

^ Definitely right, but OP has a wrong thought about the ripple and the XRPcoins. Ripple is the name of the founder of XRP while XRP is a digital currency that they found. Even though this is a regulated altcoin, there is a chance that this coin will have potential upon investing, but I am not sure if this is good for long-term investment, still, the risk was there. However, I have a strong feeling that XRP will survive even there is SEC trying to stop them because even Ripple founder has nothing to do with the supply and demand if they will not manipulate this, that is why there is manipulation.

Despite of the issues XRP have encountered, it remained resilient over the past years and that I think won't happen if this altcoin is not "big enough" so I guess it will be able to again survive this one.
That will be tough. The concern here is survival and XRP having a price increase would be tough in my opinion because of the impression it left to many of its investors. So if it is survival, it will have a huge chance to battle it out against SEC. Further developments will be needed for this crypto to again be able to catch up with the big names in this industry.

Just look to the Ripple now we see this coin is still in the market they have exchanges who unlisted this coin but it will not affect to the price because it rise a little bit compared to the last few months. I believe to this coin will rise again but it takes more weeks or months before we see the improvement of the ripple and now the price is good to buy and you will earn so much profit after few years..

Clouds over Ripple are getting thicker and darker. Personally, I'm not sure what will happen and I can't guess whether the coin will survive or not, but things don't look very bright right now. I think a lot of Ripple's supporters might lose confidence in her, which won't be good.

Ripples future depends on whether they'd be able to create a sustainable value around the token. They have been trying many things but non of their plans have made into real useful services. Now being kicked out of the US, it would be much difficult for them to get going. Specially when they have no real strategy and plans but are just wondering into different ideas.

The XRP team should be confident in fighting the case and possibly winning, if not they will be forced to relocate and change their business model. With the lawsuit there were many companies that were distancing from them and it is not a good business proposition for them and then there are exchanges that delisted them and if they want to resume their business they need to somehow sort the issue.

And yet people are still risking by investing and trading Ripple, seeing the price getting pump, they want to be part of the party, it's a big risk but as long as it's ok for them to lose everything on Ripple they still proceed, they know that it will take some time before the ruling is out so they want to make a profit, out of the situation.

I don't hold any ripple but I'm positive that SEC will have similar playout like tether had with his problems. But let's see what happens. One is sure it won't stay like this. It will go really up or really down.

The decision is what the investors are waiting, it's a good gamble for them, either the price will go down significantly or on the opposite direction. For smart investors, it's not worst taking the risk especially that the market is huge and they have a lot of options in terms of coins or project to support.

investing always has a risk. But when a market like currently buys ripple there is also a huge risk of the correction that will occur when bitcoin is no longer able to go above it. ripple has proven to us that they also have a hefty market cap. many investors are still loyal to this asset.

Well, you are both right and also wrong as well, you are right because XRP could still live even after SEC because at the same we are in a situation where XRP definitely became separate from every other thing as well and we can't just say that Ripple is tied to XRP  1 to 1 anymore, it is not going to be that kind of situation where Ripple goes down and XRP goes down as well, it is of course correlated do not understand me wrong but I really think they are not 100% connected at all.

What we can do however is that drop a lot, like drop to under 10 cents as well if SEC says that Ripple will be closed or not allowed to work and all that which would be the problem. I personally feel like XRP will be under 10 cents but it will not die, those are different things, but there is a situation where we could get in after that news was decided and we could end up profiting AFTER the decision makes it drop.

It looks like the final decision about ripple will be coming out next year. As far as i know, the court is not yet starting the meeting about that dude.
XRP is always facing a very big down trend when bitcoin gets a small correction. The volume of ripple in the market is also small compared with another coin too due to the delisting on some big exchange sites.

Ripple was doing really a long time under the watchful eye of the claim was documented against them, yet from that point forward it's been the alternate route round, Ripple wouldn't prolly ricochet back to its past levels, however I additionally don't think it'll plunge to nothing, yet having said all that, what will happen will rely upon the decision of the claim, in the event that it at last goes for XRP, I believe there's potential for the coin.

Until the whole trial with Ripple is over, and until coin is officially recognized as workable, I advise you not to do anything with XPR. The most correct decision would be to give Ripple the opportunity to prove again that the coin is worthy of people's trust. No one knows what decision on Ripple will be made, what if the company's activities will be stopped altogether? Then all the investors money will simply be lost. Every day we see news about the trial and no one knows how long it will take, so it is better to find another coin with a good reputation.

Wise thinking but there are still people who can really make out some engagement with the coin inspite of the current situation or trial that they had as of this moment.

For long term aspects then i would say that this would really be a risky one but for making some short or simply scalping in a short time would really be still considerable.

It did crash but there are significant recovery when it comes to its price.It doesnt mean that it is already okay but you can see that there is still demand out of it.

Whatever the outcome of the SECs legal proceedings against ripple will be, im bullish about xrp because i do not think that ripple can be closed down now, even the worst decision expected would be a settlement or fine which will not be a massive deal for xrp team so im expecting xrp to be back in the game.

There is no doubt that Ripple to survive, the end of this lawsuit case may be Ripple team to pay compensation or they win the case. There are many people who think Ripple is over already but I am optimistic with the Ripple team. Just wait for another good news from the Ripple team, they will announce it to the public and XRP will come back stronger. That's what I believe!!

I trusted ripple that it can survive longer despite of the issues that their community were facing recently. Holders never give up, and that also helped them stayed stronger in different exchanges.
Some exchanges delisted them already, but there's still big trading sites who prefers to stay with xrp. Hopefully, we will soon see successful negotiations be lifted for them in that holders will cast away their fears.

Did they know it before that the CEO of XLM is the co-founder of XRP?
I'm sure when Co-founder sold his XRP then i can only imagine the fear amount top XRP investors.
-If the founder cannot hold onto his company then why should they.

I don't see any particular problems with the ripple. The coin itself will not suffer anyway. The SEC has no complaints about the issuance or circulation of ripple. In fact, the allegations relate to the abuse of this coin by two Ripple Labs executives. The maximum that can be is that these persons will pay large amounts of fines. So ripple isn't feeling so bad right now. Now its price is $ 0.44, and with the increase in the price of bitcoin, its price also rose much higher.

How can you say it's not a topic anymore?

The SEC issue is still their, though I have not followed carefully the news but I believe XRP still has problem regarding the lawsuit and we can tell by its current price, it's stagnant as we see it, lucky for XRP it has not dump a lot and it has slowly recovered though.

As a result of the fallout from the SEC lawsuit, it affected Ripple's future so much that XRP lost half its value. and it will take a long time for XRP to quickly return to its position and improve its reputation. and I'm sure the Ripple side will solve their problem very soon

The positives out of this situation are that the project is working and even developing new products while it is under the charges which is good and shows that the team is confident that they will come out as winners and i completely support them as they are a unique and thriving company that will bring great products for the crypto market that will help with adoption.

I think ripple can survive because XRP has a good team and has a lot of supporter. So, i believe ripple can survive from this SEC problem, when the problem is done i think the price XRP will be back into range 0.8-1$.

That is if it's finished, but what if it can't be done? because I also have no doubts about Ripple in this regard because given that Ripple was once in a very good position and is at a very good price in a very large volume market, but at the moment they are still having a hard time solving a problem with the SEC.

I really hope it doesn't. As a centralised project, it has been drawing energy and money from the community and dumping it into a the companies own marketing and product strategy that offers nothing to the holders of the coin. Ripple is everything that is wrong with crypto, with the only merit of being early on the race.

I really hope that they give way to truly value-adding projects.

That is what's happening right now they are slipping from 2nd position to 7th position, the longer the case the more they are going to slip in the position, even though they are a centralized coin, people still supporting it, when they are starting out there is a lot of opposition, but because investors are looking for new innovation and Ethereum is not yet made its presence, Ripple got the investor's attention and the team is very much dedicated to being a part of a decentralized market, and the rest is history, but now SEC has a chance to correct everything.

I think Ripple can still survive until now, because there are still many people who support and believe to investing in Ripple, but if the lawsuit from SEC is true and SEC wins against Ripple, then it will be bad for Ripple, because everyone will no longer believe to investing in Ripple and of course Ripple will not be able to survive.

I hope for the same thing but unfortunately they are not looking like they are going away anytime soon. Sure they may not be the third biggest coin, or they might even go down a bit more from here on out but the fact is that they are not becoming zero, they are not going to bankrupt and the company will find a way to operate outside of USA if eventually SEC decides to ban them from ever working in there.

It is a coin that was already published and released, so even if all of Ripple workers were jailed, the people left with XRP on their accounts will keep on trading it, the price will go down a lot but it will not be gone forever, which is why I think it is going to be something that is "barely alive" for years from now on, 100% getting rid of it from the crypto market and getting the traders back into things that deserve their attention will be hard.

Things around Ripple are getting much deeper.
In the last few months, almost all major US exchanges, such as Coinbase and Binance US, have stopped trading or delisted XRP.

Kraken - also stopped XRP trading in mid-January.

Still, the token is still available on many major exchanges outside the United States.

xrp is too big a project and nothing will come out in SEC to stop their activities. There are too many professionals in the ripple team who are able to win this fight.
However i didn't like this project from the very beginning and the only way i can interact with this project is to only speculate on the price of the coin...

I see the US exchanges delisting XRP is understandable. They are all operating in the US and the US citizens and residents will still be accessing the token XRP if they do not delist it. And also, their non-delisting of the token can attract a sanction for them as they can be penalised for enhancing sales if unauthorised stock to the US resident or citizens.

Being big and having many professional in my opinion have nothing to do to increase their chance going against SEC. tbh they're targeted because they are big enough to be able to make some disturbance.
Honestly, I think ripple could still survive but its most likely they gonna get banned in the US so their only choice is to expand adoption outside US.

Ripple has been defying logic and gravity since the case with the US SEC. And from what I am seeing the case is going to favor The Ripple Labs. And what's more, its centralized. Lots of people banking on it

Despite the lawsuit against Ripple. Ripple is still strong I would say. Traders are still buying ripple and trading it without any fear. After the lawsuit, I was thinking the Ripple will drop hard and could not survive but I was wrong. If the case resolves soon Ripple will rise beyond one's expectation.

they are buying because they think the same as you but the price of the ripple can be a proof that it is strong not by words and what people think of .
true ripple supporters are courageous but fear is there to regular ripple investors but to profit in crypto we need to have a guts and need to disregard our fear  .the case is not over and your previous expectation for ripple is not confirmed but that can happen ,
dont be confident  .

I have always thought ripple/xrp is quite shady. Here is an article in Forbes describing how ripple pumps and dumps. Article is 2 years old but still very good. Great flow diagram showing how the scam, uh hmm, I mean the business model, works.

https://www.forbes.com/sites/jasonbloomberg/2019/03/01/is-ripple-a-scam/?sh=35f5d99079a4

In short, the founders issued shares to themselves, created a corporate structure to give the appearance of de-centralization, hyped the coin to boost its price in various ways, and paid well known traditional companies to partner to with it in order to give an air of legitimacy to it's perceived business value. Nothing has come out of any of these 'partnerships'.

[edit] I think it will survive the SEC suit, but will ultimately die as a coin [/edit]

Perhaps, there are still a lot of community remain have faith into RIPPLE together with the other exchange or local exchange too where
XRP remain listed to their platform, in short, as long as there are lot of community believe into Ripple there is a high chance for them to survive and all coins deserve a second chance to stand in this field of business industry in cryptocurrency.

The price of cryptocurrency depends too much from the news and from the state actions. This is a last article about Ripple https://dailycoin.com/ripple-vs-sec/

What do you think, who will win? Ripple or SEC?

it's a shame that ripple couldn't keep up with the pumps that most of the top market assets are experiencing today. this is related to the case they are experiencing. and I think the process is still running and we can only wait for the final result.
when it all comes back to market confidence. I think Ripple can regain a good position on the market cap.

Ripple will survive becoming the new international clearing and settlement layer for banks. Once the project started being co-opted by the banks, it was a clear sign that there was no going back from there.
Don't expect too much from this coin, better move your attention to XLM which is a much likable versione of XRP.

I think the current transfer of assets is to BNB and ETH.
because XRP is in trouble, some of course are moving their money to some trending assets.
XLM is a better asset than us holding XRP, to be honest, these two coins are my favorite in trading.
