Ripple denied these claims and has battled the determined regulator for four years.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">With the case concluded, it marks a pivotal moment not only for Ripple but also for the broader crypto market. Had the SEC won, it would have set a precedent for classifying digital assets\u2014especially those launched by U.S. founders\u2014as securities.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Under the Biden administration, the SEC sought to regulate cryptos as securities rather than commodities.
