XRP is seeing a renewed surge in activity, with the number of active sending addresses hitting 12,230 daily—a six-month high.

This jump highlights a return of active users and signals increased engagement across the XRP blockchain.

Meanwhile, Ripple is advancing on its legal front, filing a Form C to outline key issues it intends to address in its cross-appeal. As Ripple’s Chief Legal Officer emphasizes, the case doesn’t challenge XRP’s status as a non-security.

XRP, like Bitcoin, has unique clarity in being recognized outside the scope of securities, and the SEC has not contested this ruling.

The appeal will focus strictly on established records. The SEC won’t be able to present new evidence or request additional documentation, leaving Ripple’s favorable litigation record as the basis for the Appeals Court review.

This containment of the case within the existing record removes much of the drama and document disputes that characterized earlier litigation phases.

Ripple Not Concerned With The “Background Noise”

Ripple’s legal team underscores the SEC’s broader strategy to cloud the issue for Ripple and the industry, aiming to create distractions. However, Ripple views this as “background noise,” confident that the most challenging part of the battle is over. Ripple’s business continues to strengthen and grow, unfazed by the ongoing legal appeal.

As XRP’s blockchain activity rises and Ripple’s business operations progress, the legal landscape remains important but secondary to the company’s overall momentum.

The case now seems to pivot towards final legal clarifications rather than contentious litigation, positioning Ripple well for future growth, regardless of the ongoing appeal process.

The return of user activity and a stable legal outlook offer XRP holders and the crypto community a renewed sense of optimism.
