Ripple Files Cross-Appeal Against SEC Ruling on XRP Institutional Sales, Challenges Howey Test Application

Ripple Labs has initiated a cross-appeal in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, challenging several aspects of a significant ruling in its ongoing legal dispute with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The appeal specifically contests the application of the Howey test regarding XRP institutional sales. Ripple's CEO, Brad Garlinghouse, emphasized the need for clarity on whether an investment contract under the Securities Act requires an explicit contract. Ripple's legal team argues that XRP's classification as a non-security is robust, citing strict limits on court reviews as a defense against the SEC's assertions.
