XRP Lawsuit Could End Soon, Ripple Lawyer Predicts 70% Settlement Chance
The post XRP Lawsuit Could End Soon, Ripple Lawyer Predicts 70% Settlement Chance appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News After over four years of legal battle, the Ripple vs SEC case could finally be over. Both parties have recently filed a joint motion to settle. Ripple aims to unlock $125 million from escrow, $50 million would go to the SEC as a civil penalty, and $75 million would return to Ripple. The goal is to wrap it up without more delays or appeals. Deaton Says SEC Should Have Owned Up Attorney John Deaton says there is a 70% chance that Judge Analisa Torres will approve the deal. Deaton responded to a comment that accused him and Fred Rispoli of saying Ripple and the SEC should have overly praised Judge Torres in their filing. He clarified that he was not expecting any flattery, nor was he strongly criticizing the lawyers involved. Instead, he expected the SEC to acknowledge its past aggressive approach toward crypto, especially given past court rulings calling its actions “arbitrary and capricious” and even sanctioning SEC lawyers in the Debt Box case. In Ripple’s case, Judge Netburn said the SEC “lacked faithful allegiance to the law.” Deaton expected the filing to mention these issues and highlight upcoming crypto laws like the Clarity Act and Genius Act as reasons to settle and move forward. Filing Missed Key Points He also expected Ripple to point out how unfair it would be to face an injunction while the rest of the crypto industry moves toward clarity. He noted that companies like Circle would have an edge, as banks prefer working with firms that are not under a legal cloud. He said that the filing needed a stronger case to convince the judge to reverse a ruling she firmly believes in, and not just a few cases to justify it. He plans to provide an objective breakdown of both sides in his next update. Legal Experts Voice Mixed Views Attorney Fred Rispoli questioned why the injunction still matters if the SEC can simply grant Ripple a waiver to bypass it. Former SEC official Marc Fagel also raised concerns over the SEC’s latest filing, saying that its focus on elections and policy shifts is not a strong legal argument. Great post, John! One question I have had trouble trying to find an answer to—maybe you can address it tomorrow—is why the injunction ultimately matters at all. Meaning, SEC wanted the injunction, now it doesn’t. If it remains in place, doesn’t the SEC have the… — Fred Rispoli (@freddyriz) June 14, 2025 Judge to Grant Motion Anyway? Bill Morgan commented on the Ripple-SEC joint motion, noting that it doesn’t become more convincing the more you read it. But he thinks that the judge will likely approve the motion anyway.

Tornado Cash Developer Says DOJ Is Blocking Fair Trial
The post Tornado Cash Developer Says DOJ Is Blocking Fair Trial appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News Roman Storm, the co-founder of Tornado Cash, is facing major hurdles ahead of his July 14 trial. Storm says that the U.S. Department of Justice is making it hard for him to defend himself in court. He had called six expert witnesses to support his defense, but the DOJ rejected five entirely and placed strict limits on the sixth, blockchain expert Matthew Edman. The case began after the U.S. sanctioned Tornado Cash in 2023 , accusing it of helping North Korean hackers. But Storm denies the claims. The focus is now on whether he can get a fair trial without enough expert witnesses. I’m Roman Storm. I poured my soul into Tornado Cash—software that’s non-custodial, trustless, permissionless, immutable, unstoppable. In 31 days, I face trial. The DOJ wants to bury DeFi, saying I should’ve controlled it, added KYC, never built it. SDNY is trying to crush… — Roman Storm (@rstormsf) June 13, 2025 DOJ Denies 5 of 6 Proposed Experts The DOJ has pushed back hard, saying that most expert witnesses were not relevant to the core issue – his alleged role in violating international sanctions. It also criticized how the witnesses were selected and the methods they used. They argued that their testimony on topics like digital privacy, blockchain tech , tokenomics, and KYC rules was irrelevant to the case. “There are multiple deficiencies in the proposed testimony, including that they are inappropriate subjects for expert testimony, lack a reliable methodology or basis in facts and data, or are irrelevant, unfairly prejudicial, and confusing to the jury.” .article-inside-link { margin-left: 0 !important; border: 1px solid #0052CC4D; border-left: 0; border-right: 0; padding: 10px 0; text-align: left; } .entry ul.article-inside-link li { font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; font-weight: 600; list-style-type: none; margin-bottom: 0; display: inline-block; } .entry ul.article-inside-link li:last-child { display: none; } Also Read : Crypto Market Faces $190M Liquidation—But Signs Hint at Upcoming Rally , Community Support Grows Although Tornado Cash has been removed from the US Treasury’s sanctions list, Storm is still under pressure. But the support is growing for him. Many have donated to his legal fund, which he had called for several times during the case. The Ethereum Foundation pledged $500K from its treasury and raised $750K from the wider crypto community to help fund his legal defense. The EF is donating $500K to the legal defense of Roman Storm, and we will match up to a further $750K in donations from the community. Privacy is normal, and writing code is not a crime. — Ethereum Foundation (@ethereumfndn) June 13, 2025 But without expert witnesses, he may face major challenges in the court. Defense Team Requests More Time Storm’s legal team has requested a two-day extension to respond to the DOJ’s motion to block their expert witnesses. They say it won’t delay the case, but the DOJ is still opposing the request, even though it had asked for the same extension if needed. Storm still faces several charges for his role in running Tornado Cash. While the DOJ dropped charges related to operating an unlicensed money transmitter last month, it is continuing to pursue other charges, including money laundering. .article_register_shortcode { padding: 18px 24px; border-radius: 8px; display: flex; align-items: center; margin: 6px 0 22px; border: 1px solid #0052CC4D; background: linear-gradient(90deg, rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.1) 0%, rgba(0, 82, 204, 0.1) 100%); } .article_register_shortcode .media-body h5 { color: #000000; font-weight: 600; font-size: 20px; line-height: 22px; text-align:left; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body h5 span { color: #0052CC; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body p { font-weight: 400; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; color: #171717B2; margin-top: 4px; text-align:left; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body{ padding-right: 14px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-button a { float: right; } .article_register_shortcode .primary-button img{ vertical-align: middle; width: 20px; margin: 0; display: inline-block; } @media (min-width: 581px) and (max-width: 991px) { .article_register_shortcode .media-body p { margin-bottom: 0; } } @media (max-width: 580px) { .article_register_shortcode { display: block; padding: 20px; } .article_register_shortcode img { max-width: 50px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body h5 { font-size: 16px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body { margin-left: 0px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-body p { font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px; margin-top: 6px; margin-bottom: 14px; } .article_register_shortcode .media-button a { float: unset; } .article_register_shortcode .secondary-button { margin-bottom: 0; } } Never Miss a Beat in the Crypto World!

How High Can Ripple’s (XRP) Price Go if XRPL Captures 14% of SWIFT’s Global Volume?
TL;DR Two of Ripple’s top executives answered a direct question about XRPL’s potential to capture a sizeable volume of the most adopted financial transactional system, SWIFT. If their prediction is to happen, the XRP Ledger could be processing billions of dollars worth of assets daily, which would definitely impact the native token’s price – but by how much? 14% of Swift’s Volume? Responding to the question asked at the XRP Apex 2025 event in Singapore earlier this week, Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse said it’s important to distinguish SWIFT into two parts – messaging and liquidity. He focused on the second, as it could influence the XRP Ledger more since it is owned by the banks. “I think less about the messaging and more about liquidity. If you are driving all the liquidity, it is good for XRP … so I will say in five years, 14%.” Even if we remove the messaging part from this equation, SWIFT handles approximately $5 trillion in transactions per day, according to Statista’s conservative metrics. This puts the annual amount at around $1.25 quadrillion if we assume there are 250 business days yearly. 14% out of that mindblowing amount would result in a $175 trillion volume settled in Ripple’s cross-border token on its network annually, or $700 billion daily. Although not all value remains in XRP, the liquidity needed to ensure there are no delays should be at least $175 billion (daily) if one token is used around four times per day for settlements. When we asked ChatGPT about XRP’s price potential in such a scenario, it responded that the asset could blow up to somewhere above $20 when we considered all narratives. The SWIFT volume, even though it would be a massive portion, would still complement everything else that goes on in the Ripple (XRP) ecosystem – staking, holding, network expansion, RLUSD adoption, potential ETF approvals , etc. Ridiculous Predictions Time While a price tag of $10 or even $20 sounds quite mindboggling as of now (current price – under $2.2), the XRP Army was even more bullish following Garlinghouse’s comments. Predictions started to fly in, outlining ridiculous targets for the future, including almost $1,500 per coin. This #XRP bull flag has a $1,452.81 price target. Do you believe in it? pic.twitter.com/pRFksuCe9V — STEPH IS CRYPTO (@Steph_iscrypto) June 13, 2025 Some even brought up the aforementioned RLUSD adoption, which could also somehow push XRP’s price to the stratosphere. It’s official: $RLUSD is set to trigger a guaranteed $1,250 price for $XRP ! pic.twitter.com/RW0StcSHuv — KingXRP (@MRKingXRP) June 13, 2025 However, investors should be aware that these targets are simply numbers that have little substance to back them up, for now at least. Before you start allocating funds to XRP expecting such massive price surges, please beware that $1,250 per XRP would mean that its market cap would be north of $67 trillion – that’s more than Bitcoin, Amazon, Apple, Google, and gold combined.

Donald Trump’s Earnings from the TRUMP Memecoin Have Been Revealed – A Hard-to-Believe Figure
It has been revealed that US President Donald Trump earned $57.36 million last year through World Liberty Financial, a cryptocurrency venture linked to his family. This income was one of Trump's biggest earnings items in 2024, according to a financial disclosure released by the U.S. Office of Government Ethics on June 13. According to the New York Post, the decentralized finance (DeFi) platform, called World Liberty Financial, was founded in 2024 by Zach Witkoff.

Ripple CLO Issues Urgent Warning to XRP Holders
Ripple’s Chief Legal Officer, Stuart Alderoty, has issued a powerful alert to the crypto community, emphasizing that securing your digital assets is as essential as protecting your online banking and email accounts. His message, published in a National Cryptocurrency Association post, lays bare the ever-present threat of digital scams and offers a clear roadmap for staying safe in today’s fast-moving crypto landscape. “Protecting yourself is just as important in your crypto wallet as it is in your email inbox or your ng app,” Alderoty cautioned. As cryptocurrencies gain broader adoption, bad actors have found new ways to exploit users. While blockchain technology offers revolutionary benefits, it also presents risks, especially for those unfamiliar with digital security. Protecting yourself is just as important in your crypto wallet as it is in your email inbox or your banking app. In my latest @FastCompany op-ed, I share some habits to stay safer. https://t.co/4xCuoFF0sr — Stuart Alderoty (@s_alderoty) June 13, 2025 Online Scams in the Crypto Era: What You Must Know Alderoty’s post outlines six of the most common and dangerous online scams targeting crypto holders. These schemes are designed to exploit trust, curiosity, and urgency—traits that scammers leverage to defraud even the most cautious users. Pig Butchering Scams: This elaborate deception begins with fraudsters creating fake emotional or social relationships. Whether posing as a romantic interest, a friendly mentor, or a business partner, their goal is always the same: to lure victims into investing in fake crypto schemes. Once the money is transferred, the scammer disappears, leaving the victim emotionally and financially devastated. Pump-and-Dump Schemes : These scams target lesser-known tokens, artificially inflating their prices through orchestrated hype across social media or messaging platforms. When unsuspecting investors buy in, the organizers dump their holdings at the top, causing the token’s value to crash, leaving victims holding worthless coins. Phony Crypto Giveaways: Social media is filled with posts promising to “double your crypto” if you send a small amount first. These offers are 100% fraudulent. Legitimate giveaways never require upfront payments, and any request for such should immediately raise alarms. Impersonation Scams : Scammers often pose as support agents, regulators, or known brands to trick users into revealing sensitive data or sending crypto to bogus addresses. Despite appearing professional, these impersonators’ true goal is to deceive and exploit others for personal gain. Phishing Attacks: Similar to traditional web attacks, phishing in Web3 involves emails, social media messages, or websites designed to mimic trusted platforms. The goal is to deceive users into entering their wallet credentials or recovery phrases, handing complete control over to the attacker. Random Messages and Cold Contacts : Unexpected texts like “How are you?” or “I found your number” should always raise red flags. These messages are often the first step in more complex scams. Scammers hope to create a false sense of familiarity and slowly reel victims in. How to Shield Yourself from Crypto Scams Alderoty stresses that online safety isn’t about fear, it’s about being equipped. By adopting a few simple yet effective habits, users can substantially reduce their risk of falling victim to digital threats, even as they continue to evolve. Here are the six safety tips every XRP holder and crypto user in general should follow: Keep Your Private Key Offline : Share your public address freely, but never expose your private key or recovery phrase. Think of your private key as the master key to your vault—if someone has it, they control your funds. Scrutinize Every Link : Be wary of random links, especially those in emails, DMs, or social media posts. Always verify the sender and hover over the URL to ensure it leads to a legitimate site. We are on twitter, follow us to connect with us :- @TimesTabloid1 — TimesTabloid (@TimesTabloid1) July 15, 2023 Watch Out for Urgency Tactics : Scammers often try to rush you with lines like “limited-time offer” or “act now.” These high-pressure tactics are designed to bypass your judgment. Take your time and investigate before taking any action. Do Your Research: When considering a crypto investment, research the project’s development team, review its whitepaper, assess community feedback, and evaluate its reputation. Don’t be swayed by hype or anonymous endorsements. Trust Your Instincts, but Check the Facts : If something seems off—misspelled names, unofficial logos, or overly generous promises—stop and verify. Gut feelings are often your best early warning system. Avoid Unsolicited Messages : Ignore random DMs, texts, or emails from unknown individuals. Scammers often use unsolicited messages to initiate contact, whether posing as a new friend, a promising opportunity, or a fake support agent. Crypto Is About Empowerment, But Caution Is Key While the decentralization and control that come with crypto are empowering, Alderoty reminds users that personal responsibility is the cornerstone of digital safety. “Crypto gives people more control, more access, and more opportunity. But that means nothing without trust and safety,” he emphasized. He also noted that, according to a wide-reaching survey conducted by his organization, fewer than 1% of U.S. crypto holders have experienced fraud or breaches—a far lower figure than the 34% who have faced banking scams or the 40% who’ve encountered fraud on dating apps. This proves that when used wisely, crypto can be safer than many traditional online systems. Alderoty encourages newcomers to be “crypto curious,” but also vigilant. With habits such as two-factor authentication, cautious clicking, and secure key storage, users can confidently navigate the digital finance world. Bottom Line The rapid evolution of the crypto space brings both opportunities and risks. Scammers are becoming more sophisticated, but so are the tools and practices that can keep you safe. With the right awareness, crypto doesn’t have to be a risky endeavor; it can be a powerful tool for financial freedom.

How gold took its shine as the world’s undisputed safe haven asset
Gold just made its biggest comeback in modern economic history. The ancient metal, long dismissed by economists and dumped by central banks after the collapse of the gold standard in the 1970s, has now climbed to the second most-held reserve asset on the planet—right behind the US dollar. Governments that once sold their gold for decades are now buying it again. And not in small amounts. Over the past three years, net central bank purchases have been over 1,000 tonnes annually, a record pace. That demand pushed gold above the euro in global reserves for the first time ever. The last time central banks held this much gold was back in 1965 during the Bretton Woods system. Trump’s policies trigger dollar doubts Donald Trump’s second term lit the fuse. His trade wars , unpredictable foreign policy, and fiscal blowouts drove investors and foreign governments to question the strength of the US dollar and Treasury bonds. The dollar, once the default haven in global crises, just dropped to a three-year low against the euro and pound. John Reade, chief market strategist at the World Gold Council, didn’t overcomplicate it. “It’s Trump, in a word,” he said . “It’s the risk and uncertainty from the new US administration.” Trump’s “liberation day” tariffs and increasing debt raised concerns over US fiscal discipline. His attacks on the Federal Reserve and US courts have only made things worse. Meanwhile, the price of gold has surged. This April, it hit a new intraday high of over $3,000 per troy ounce, beating the previous all-time high set in 1980. That marked a 30% rise just in 2025. After Israel bombed Iran, investors jumped into gold again, pushing prices close to that peak. For many, this wasn’t just another crisis hedge. It was a full-blown retreat from traditional safe assets like bonds. Central banks in Asia and beyond load up Most of the heavy buying came from countries outside the US and Europe. Central banks in China, Turkey, and India have been leading the charge. These governments are trying to reduce their exposure to the dollar in case they ever face sanctions similar to what Russia dealt with after the Ukraine invasion. Their goal isn’t high returns. They’re simply stacking assets that can’t be frozen, sanctioned, or printed out of thin air. With few other currencies offering enough liquidity or political neutrality, central banks are settling for gold. Oh, but demand comes with problems. When traders rushed to import gold into New York earlier this year over tariff fears, it clogged up the system. At the Bank of England, the world’s second-biggest gold vault, queues to withdraw metal stretched on for weeks. Bank staff couldn’t keep up with the requests. Eventually, Trump clarified that gold wouldn’t face tariffs. The old belief that US Treasuries were the safest place to park reserves doesn’t hold like it used to. Even private fund managers are sounding alarms. A recent Bank of America survey found that 45% of them think gold is overvalued right now—the highest number since 2008. Still, for the second month in a row, gold was called the “most crowded trade” in markets. Everyone seems to be in it, even the skeptics. Kenneth Rogoff, professor at Harvard and former IMF chief economist, said the narrative around crypto replacing gold doesn’t hold up anymore. “People often say bitcoin is the new gold. I say, ‘No, gold is the new gold.’” But not everyone’s rooting for a return to the gold standard. Economists argue that pegging currencies to a fixed asset caused more harm than good during past downturns, including the Great Depression. It limited governments’ ability to react to crises. That’s why even those who are bullish on gold don’t see it replacing the dollar anytime soon. Still, the fear is real. And the demand is real. So yeah, for now, gold is doing what it’s always done best—sit still, stay quiet, and hold its value while the rest of the world freaks out.
