SEC was asking Billions in penalties. Court ruled $125 mil.
CONCLUSION
The SEC’s motion for remedies and the entry of final judgment is GRANTED IN PART
and DENIED IN PART. The Court shall enter a final judgment enjoining Ripple from further violations of the securities laws and imposing a civil penalty of $125,035,150
No disgorgement, No fraud or misappropriation.
XRP is Not a Security.
Court also rejected SEC's claim:
The SEC suggests that each of Ripple’s “1,700 relevant contracts” constitutes a
separate violation
And there the "17" number again.
And here I thought Ripple was the wine on Sanford & Sons ... I'm so old. :(
I wonder why they went with "Ripple"? Was "Mad Dog 20/20" already taken?
Out of stock!
It was a decision they were Tickled Pink about.
maybe a hint to watch the (ripples) in the water...where water = "current sea"
