The delay in settling Ripple's case (as pointed out by James below), is likely the injunction in Judge Torres' judgment.

The court enjoined Ripple from (basically) making sales directly to customers. There are workarounds for that, but obviously Ripple would rather not have the… https://t.co/pNAlIasEQM pic.twitter.com/WuN5micdtF

I love this XRP Strategic Reserve story; Trump will have to tell his @SECGov to drop the @Ripple case and allow a lower disclosure standard for retail or face losing a ton of money on much lower $XRP prices in the strategic reserve if they keep the case; can’t wait to keep…

I’ve said this before - the crypto industry will achieve our goals (and beyond), IF WE WORK TOGETHER. Appreciate the crypto President @realDonaldTrump’s vision of a govt digital asset reserve representative of the industry.

Because XRP is great technology, a global standard, survived for a decade through many harsh cycles, and has one of the strongest communities. I think the president made the right decision

ADA, XRP, and SOL are each traded on American exchanges at a higher % of volume compared to offshore exchanges, and American firms custody a higher % of these assets than any other of the top 20 (outside of DOGE)

Let's look at the potential upside.

The U.S. purchases Bitcoin at $100K and it does a 10x to $1M.
Meanwhile, XRP bought at $3 does a 60x.
Which is the better investment?

I have a Theory about the SEC’s unexplained delay in dismissing the @Ripple case.
— MetaLawMan (@MetaLawMan) March 1, 2025
It might not be the SEC.
It could be that @Ripple is negotiating hard to get the SEC to agree to vacate some or all of Judge Torres’ decision.
The Torres decision was unquestionably GREAT for…

I get the rationale for a Bitcoin reserve. I don't agree with it, but I get it. We have a gold reserve. Bitcoin is digital gold, which is better than analog gold. So let's create a Bitcoin reserve too. But what's the rationale for an XRP reserve? Why the hell would we need that?

The behavior of Zelenskyy is typical of Europe as a whole. Entitled. In denial of reality. Narcissistic. Unconcerned with our need to deal with many massive internal problems. Such juvenile & entitled behavior makes us less not more desirous of helping Ukraine and Europe. https://t.co/XL0JBSBBIr
