Large sum of XRP worth $50,715,884 transferred to Coinbase following conclusion of Ripple lawsuit

In a significant development for the cryptocurrency market, the Ripple SEC lawsuit has officially been closed after nearly five years of litigation. The Second Circuit has approved the Joint Stipulation of Dismissal of respective appeals filed by both parties on Aug. 7. This news was shared by former federal prosecutor James K. Filan.

The Ripple case, which started in December 2020, has come to an end. Judge Torres previously ruled that XRP is not a security in and of itself in the Ripple case. This ruling may have contributed to the recent surge in XRP's value, as the markets surged on Friday, with XRP gaining nearly 8% due to Fed Chair Jerome Powell's comments on the possibility of a rate cut at the September meeting.

However, the update about the Ripple case's closure does not mention any specific impact on XRP's value or the markets. In recent times, there has been increased whale activity surrounding XRP, particularly amid the Ripple SEC lawsuit. An amount of over $50 million worth of XRP tokens has been transferred to Coinbase from an unknown wallet, as reported by Whale Alert. The transfer of 16,594,920 XRP tokens to Coinbase was also reported by Whale Alert.

Interestingly, the hourly chart indicator suggests a potential bullish rebound for XRP. However, it's important to note that the update does not provide any information about the transfer of XRP tokens to or from Coinbase, nor does it mention any increased whale activity in recent hours or the hourly chart indicator suggesting a potential bullish rebound for XRP.

The SEC filed its status report with the Court of Appeals on Aug. 15, noting that the parties have filed a Joint Stipulation of Dismissal. The news of the Ripple case's closure was shared by Alex Dovbnya. This closing marks a significant milestone for Ripple, as the company continues to navigate the complex world of cryptocurrency regulation.

As always, it's crucial for investors to conduct their own research and make informed decisions when investing in cryptocurrencies. The dismissal of the Ripple SEC lawsuit is a positive development for XRP and the cryptocurrency market as a whole, but it's essential to keep a watchful eye on market trends and regulatory developments.
