Ripple Fined $125M in Lawsuit Against SEC, XRP Price Soars 20% Immediately

Ripple has been fined $125 million in the lawsuit against the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. This is just a fraction of what the SEC had previously asked for in the case.

The fine that Judge Analisa Torres settled on is far less than the $1 billion in disgorgement and prejudgment interest and $900 million in civil penalty the SEC sought.

XRP investors have seen this as a positive for the firm and the cryptocurrency, which exploded by more than 20% immediately after the news broke.

This story is developing.
