XRP lawsuit: The exit announcement of the US SEC chair Gary Gensler has boosted the broader crypto market sentiment, sparking hopes over a new pro-crypto regulator to replace him. Amid this, pro-XRP lawyer Jeremy Hogan has predicted the conclusion timeline for the Ripple SEC lawsuit, sparking discussions in the market.

Lawyer Predicts Potential XRP Lawsuit Conclusion Timeline
The US SEC has recently announced that the Chair Gary Gensler is set to exit the office in January 2025. This development has sparked widespread discussion in the financial market, let alone the crypto market. Notably, the market participants deem Gensler as an anti-crypto regulator, who has so far hindered innovation and growth in the digital assets space.
Having said that, a flurry of market watchers anticipates the ongoing SEC lawsuits to conclude or settle with the new Chair replacing Gensler. Amid this, pro-XRP lawyer Jeremy Hogan has fueled market discussions with his prediction regarding the XRP lawsuit conclusion timeline.
Recently, Hogan has shared Gensler’s January 20, 2025 exit update on X, lauding the development. Commenting on that, one user asked how long it might take for the Ripple SEC case to drop or settle amid the SEC Chair’s exit. Replying to that, the lawyer said that the Ripple Vs. SEC lawsuit could conclude in 2025 spring or in the early summer. He stated:
I still think we are looking at spring next year – maybe early summer.
This comment has sparked discussions in the crypto market, especially as the investors keep close track of the high-profile case. Notably, the Ripple SEC lawsuit is one of the longest-running crypto cases, which has recently been extended with the US SEC’s move in the appellate court.
Ripple’s Native Crypto Eyes Rally Amid Several Good News
In a recent X post, a pro-XRP lawyer highlights “good news for XRP”, gaining the attention of the market participants. He has highlighted the latest launch of the WisdomTree Physical XRP ETP on Börse Xetra, SIX Swiss Exchange, and Euronext Paris and Amsterdam.
Notably, this development has once again ignited discussions over a potential XRP ETF launch in the US. Notably, big US firms like Bitwise and Canary Capital have already filed for XRP ETF with the US SEC, awaiting approval. In addition, Jeremy Hogan recently said that the investment instrument could note its US launch in the next six to twelve months, sparking market optimism amid the XRP lawsuit discussions.
Fueling the sentiment, another renowned lawyer John Deaton said that XRP market cap is poised to hit $100 billion soon, with the latest shift in the US administration. Besides, the recent rally in Bitcoin has also bolstered market sentiment, hinting that the top altcoins might also follow suit.
