There is currently a lot of talk about XRP in the Crypto world. Many people online speculate that the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) could soon approve some XRP Spot ETF applications. Large companies such as Bitwise, Grayscale, Franklin Templeton and 21Share have already submitted applications, with several important decision dates coming soon.
The first major date is June 17, 2025, when the SEC is expected to make a decision in the Franklin Templeton Spot XRP ETF application. Other decisions are on line – Grayscale’s deadline is May 21, 2025, while Bitwise awaits the decision on May 25, 2025. The crypto community is paying attention to these dates.
At the same time, another rumor is making the rounds. Some believe that the SEC and Ripple are already quietly solving a long-term legal battle, and are just waiting for the judge to approve it. But former SEC lawyer Marc Fagel wiped things out. He said the judge actually refused the request from both Ripple and Sec.
It’s not actually resolved. The parties may have signed a contract, but a court case is required to carry out the settlement. And the court showed that it simply did not do what the political parties asked without further explanation.

According to Fagel, both parties may have agreed to the deal, but it is not official yet. The court hopes to explain why the decision they have already made should be changed. He added, “It’s not actually resolved. The parties may have entered into an agreement, but a court case is required to implement the settlement. The court will not simply do what it asked without further explanation.”
In short, both the XRP ETF decision and the situation in the Ripple litigation are still in the air. Crypto fans are looking forward to the official updates in the coming weeks.
