The Ripple vs. SEC case might drag on for some time before it finally ends.
There have been ripe speculations in the market that the SEC might soon file its appeal against the case judgement, unlike the last time in August 2023, when it accepted its defeat.
XRP has been bullish since the end of the case and has not slid below $0.55 despite a recent marketwide correction.
Though it is a bit far-fetched, yet another round of trials and court procedures might end XRP buyers' patience.
As early as January of 2025, XRP might cross $1 levels on a sustained basis. XRP has also planned to bring smart contract functionality to its platform.
