As reported by ZyCrypto, Ripple recently achieved a victory as a court denied the SEC’s request to prevent them from being compelled to disclose documents in which their former executive explained why he believed Ethereum was not a security. This could strengthen their argument that XRP meets the same criteria as ETH, providing a strong basis for their victory. XRP experienced a percentage increase following the publication of this news.
