He warned Hoffman to keep a close eye on the Ripple case, as the SEC is trying to argue that secondary market sales can also be securities. However, Hoffman stated that the Chia company owns XCH but has never sold any tokens, and all the trading of XCH has been \u201cfrom farmers farming.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ripple has been locked in a legal battle with the SEC since December 2020, when the regulator filed a lawsuit accusing Ripple and its executives of selling unregistered securities in the form of XRP. The company has vehemently denied the charges, and the legal proceedings have had little to no effect on XRP\u2019s market value.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-xrp-price\">XRP Price<\/h2>\n<p>On Sunday, <a href=\"https:\/\/coinpedia.org\/price-analysis\/xrp-price-shows-weakness-due-to-pce-data-heres-what-traders-can-expect\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">XRP Price<\/a> rose by 0.02% but ended the week down 2.11% to $0.37794.
