Speculation and commentary come mainly from analysts, including Marc Fagel, a former SEC director.

“A settlement between Ripple and the SEC is unlikely to occur before July 14. [The] SEC’s internal review process for settlements… usually takes one to two months to complete. This timeline makes it logistically impossible for any settlement or ruling to occur before July 14.” — Marc Fagel, Former SEC Regional Director

XRP’s market reaction to these developments has been one of anticipation, with self-custody transfers indicating varied investor sentiment. Meanwhile, regulatory clarity remains elusive, affecting potential Ripple partnerships.

Expert analysis suggests the delays in Ripple’s settlement could influence future SEC actions. Historical cases indicate the potential shaping of strategies for payments and Layer 1 protocols.
