Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse expressed optimism about working with the new SEC team, leading the market to speculate that the lawsuit is likely to be settled or withdrawn. Legal analyst Jeremy Hogan predicts that the case may end as early as April or May 2025, but procedural requirements may delay the timeline.
