Ultimately, I think we can assume if the SEC does win their suit, 2 things can happen: XRP could be deemed untradeable and/or Larsen & Garlinghouse are hit with fines/penalties etc which could diminish the company/coin but possible they stay afloat.
Just learn from KIN's case where the company was getting delisted from so many exchange sites, liquidity gets drained and dead.
The liquidity of ripple comes from the its premined coin. That's why this company is having the largest premined coin in the history of crypto.
My question for everyone is if they do win their suit, does the coin soar?
it does.
Massive buy will be happening. People will be believing in ripple again and a few hundred percent increase might possible for ripple.
I do believe there are technological advantages provided by XRP with the transfer of assets and the ability to partner with banks.
It's only providing the infrastructure for the bankers and no more. This company is not transparent too.
