The U.S. SEC has filed an appeal in its case against Ripple, after a federal judge ruled that the SEC did not prove Ripple violated securities laws by selling XRP to retail customers. The SEC’s appeal, submitted to the Second Circuit Court of Appeals, argues that the judge’s decision contradicts established Supreme Court precedents and securities laws.

As we look ahead, several factors could influence the ongoing legal battles in the crypto space. With an election approaching, potential changes in leadership could  impact the SEC’s direction. If Donald Trump wins, the current dynamics could shift dramatically.

There’s widespread concern about how ongoing litigation is driving innovation out of the United States. According to James Murphy aka MetaLawMan, this situation could lead to one of two outcomes: either Gary Gensler resigns or is removed from his position, replaced by someone less hostile towards crypto. A new leader might prioritize settling or dismissing cases rather than pursuing aggressive actions against the industry.

James said that the upcoming presidential election’s importance for cryptocurrency regulation. He noted that Kamala Harris recently couldn’t identify any mistakes the Biden Administration made regarding crypto, despite ongoing efforts—dubbed “Operation Choke Point 2.0″—to restrict the industry.

It’s also worth noting that there’s legislation in the works that could clarify jurisdiction over cryptocurrency, suggesting that it might be impractical for judges to decide these matters without clear guidelines from Congress. Given this landscape, there’s a greater than 50% chance that we could see changes that alter the course of these cases.

He added that influential figures like Mark Cuban and Anthony Scaramucci suggest changes might be on the horizon, but he’s doubtful. With the election just weeks away, he pointed out that the administration could easily request Gary Gensler’s resignation, and typically, such requests are complied with. However, he expressed frustration that no actions have been taken yet.
