This case covers Ripple's events from 2020-2023. The focus of this case is Ripple's 2023 victory over the SEC, which sued Ripple in 2020 claiming that they did not register their XRP coins as securities. After Ripple's victory, CEO Garlinghouse faced numerous decisions, including whether to invest other companies to building out the crypto ecosystem, launch a stablecoin (as several crypto companies had done), and whether he should take a leadership position on government policies on crypto or remain in the background.
