Ripple CTO David “JoelKatz” Schwartz recently commented on a tweet by John E Deaton regarding the allegedly prolonged delay in the Ripple case decision. In his tweet, Schwartz acknowledged the frustration of waiting for a ruling on the summary judgment motions in the case.
I know waiting is annoying and we'd all love to have a ruling on summary judgment motions as soon as possible, but I wouldn't think anything was wrong, unusual, or strange until at least the end of September.— David "JoelKatz" Schwartz (@JoelKatz) July 10, 2023
Schwartz cautioned against leaping to conclusions or thinking anything uncommon or unexpected was going on until at least the end of September. His remark implies that the delay is not unusual given the complex nature of the legal proceedings.
In his tweet, Deaton emphasized the length of time it has taken Judge Torres, who is presiding over the Ripple case, to reach a ruling. He noted that the Reply Briefs were submitted in December, resulting in a seven-month wait for the judge’s decision. Deaton also mentioned other cases before Judge Torres that have taken several months for a decision to be reached.
The tweet by Deaton suggests that the timeline for the Ripple case is not unprecedented, as other cases have also taken a considerable amount of time to receive a ruling. He also indicated his conviction that, given the length of time it has taken, Judge Torres is well aware of the implications of her ruling.
Schwartz’s statement displays a calm attitude toward the problem, reminding the community that judicial processes can take time, especially when dealing with complex situations with far-reaching consequences. His statement implies that rushing to conclusions or assuming irregularities based solely on the duration of the case would be premature.
The Ripple-SEC case has captured the interest of the cryptocurrency industry and others because it addresses fundamental regulatory issues and has the ability to define the future regulatory landscape for digital assets. The conclusion of this case will determine whether XRP is classified as a security under US law, which could have an influence on its classification and use in financial markets.
