We’ve recently explored how the lawsuit could affect the entire crypto industry, talking to legal experts with interesting commentary on the matter.
With that said, let’s have a look at some of the most recent developments as of today – June 27th, 2023.
- The most recent development came yesterday when the lawyer representing thousands of XRP holders – John E. Deaton – revealed that he got an email that initially worried him.
- However, it turned out that there was just one lawyer who withdrew from the case. Deaton, as well as Marc Fagel – a former SEC litigator – both confirmed that this is a non-event.
- Speaking of Fagel, a couple of weeks back, he said that a ruling might be coming in days.
- Perhaps the most important development this month came on or about June 13th when the SEC, under a court request, finally unsealed the documents pertaining to William Hinman’s speech.
