🚨SCOOP: Two well-placed sources tell me that the @SECGov vs. @Ripple case is in the process of wrapping up and could be over soon.
My understanding is that the delay in reaching an agreement is due to Ripple's legal team negotiating more favorable terms regarding the August district court ruling, which imposed a $125M fine on the company and included a permanent injunction preventing the company from selling $XRP to institutional investors.
The argument, I’m told, is that if the new SEC leadership is wiping the enforcement slate clean for all previously-targeted crypto firms because it believes regulatory clarity will resolve the underlying issue, why should Ripple still be penalized? Accepting the Torres ruling as it stands would mean that Ripple is essentially agreeing to admit to wrongdoing — but now the SEC itself is seemingly unsure whether any wrongdoing occurred.
There’s no real playbook for this kind of thing which could explain why this case is taking longer to resolve than the rest. Stay tuned.

NEW: Laken Riley fought for her life for 18 whole minutes before her skull was crushed allegedly by illegal alien Jose Ibarra from Venezuela.
According to Riley's smartwatch, she fought from 910 am until her heart stopped at 928 am.
Prosecutors say Ibarra crushed Riley's skull as she fought off his s*xual attack.
"He went hunting for females on the University of Georgia campus, and on his hunt, he encountered 22-year-old Laken Riley on her morning jog," prosecutor Sheila Ross said.
"When Laken Riley refused to be his r*pe victim, he bashed her skull in with a rock repeatedly."
"She fought for her dignity, and in that fight, she caused this defendant to leave forensic evidence behind. She also marked her killer for the entire world to see."
"Her encounter with him was long. Her fight with him was fierce."
