Lawyer Jeremy Hogan said in an X thread<\/a> on Oct. 21 that the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) lawsuit against Ripple Labs and its token, XRP, is effectively over.<\/span><\/p>\n “For all Intents and Purposes the Ripple v. SEC case is over,” he tweeted on X. ”I have now done the MATH and, taking into account the chance of a win on appeal, surviving more litigation, and still being able to maintain the lawsuit against Ripple into 2026: The chance of the SEC winning is exactly 2.367%. Same odds as the Jets winning the Super Bowl!”<\/span><\/p>\n Hogan\u2019s post comes after the SEC <\/span>dropped<\/span><\/a> charges against Brad Garlinghouse, Ripple\u2019s CEO, and executive chair Chris Larsen last week, helping buoy sentiment in crypto markets . Ripple called the U-turn a ”stunning capitulation” by the regulator.<\/span><\/p>\n Hogan says the regulator has, in theory, about a 14% chance of winning an appeal if it files one. But the path to victory overall would be long and difficult.<\/span><\/p>\n Computing its chance of winning an appeal, surviving more litigation, and still being able to maintain the lawsuit against Ripple into 2026, Hogan says its final chance of success drops to just a little more than 2%.<\/p>\n Luckily, we have statistics which tell us!<\/p>\n As you see below, the SEC has a 14.2% chance of winning on appeal. 14.2%.<\/p>\n And I think it's fair to say that the manner in which the Judge wrote her opinion (very fact based), at a minimum, does not increase that chance for the SEC. pic.twitter.com\/LTsOU5eEgE<\/a><\/p>\n — Jeremy Hogan (@attorneyjeremy1) October 21, 2023<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\nCase Again Ripple, XRP Long And Difficult<\/h3>\n
