Cases against Coinbase, Kraken and Gemini among others ending pointed to one possibility \u2013 the SEC was also considering withdrawing its appeal against Ripple.<\/p>\n<p>Indeed, reports last week suggested the regulator was looking into this \u2013 with Ripple lawyers\u2019 demands around a $125 million fine among stumbling blocks then.<\/p>\n<p>On March 19, on the sidelines of the Digital Asset Summit in New York, Garlinghouse announced the SEC will indeed be dropping its appeal.
