Why did the Ripple vs SEC Settlement Get Complicated Again

The post Fact Check: Is the Ripple vs. SEC Case Being Delayed Till 2026? appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News

A fresh rumor has been making rounds on social media about the Ripple vs. SEC lawsuit possibly being dragged out till late 2026. It all started when a user named Altcoin Bale posted on X (formerly Twitter), claiming:

“BREAKING: SEC v XRP final decision could be delayed until late 2026”

The post quickly grabbed attention, but many XRP supporters in the comment section disagreed, calling it misleading.

So, what’s the truth?

Here’s what’s actually happening:
As part of the ongoing case, both Ripple and the U.S. SEC recently requested the court to keep the appeals process on hold for now. The SEC has been asked to submit a status update by August 15, 2025 — but that doesn’t mean the final decision will take until 2026.

Ripple also filed a supplemental letter supporting a legal request called a Motion for an Indicative Ruling . However, legal expert Marc Fagel commented that this latest letter doesn’t really add anything new. He said it seems like Ripple just wanted to reassure its supporters after some people on Crypto Twitter expressed doubts.

Fagel added that predicting the judge’s next move is difficult, as this situation is quite unique. If the judge rejects the motion, Ripple will have to decide whether it wants to continue its appeal or settle.

Legal expert Bill Morgan also weighed in and called it an ‘improbable outcome.’ He said, “This is not on the cards unless Judge Torres rules against the latest joint motion and rather that make the common sense decision to live with the summary judgement decision and the current penalty and permanent injunction, the settlement process breaks down completely and both parties run their appeals.”

Conclusion:

There’s no official information suggesting that the Ripple vs. SEC case will be delayed till 2026. As of now, the next update is expected by August 2025, and the final outcome could come sooner.
