Although the SEC had opposed this matter at various stages following Judge Torres’ decision, the final decision approved Ripple’s exemption from Rule 506(d) disqualification under the Securities Act. This decision removes the obstacle for Ripple to benefit from investor exemptions under Regulation D. The Commission stated that, given the current circumstances and previous decisions, there was “good cause” not to apply the disqualification that would have resulted if the preliminary injunction granted by the final judgment were lifted. Thus, Ripple officially gained exemption from the relevant provision of the Securities Law.

It could even be said that business as usual will continue as if the lawsuit and $125 million fine never occurred. The case between Ripple and the SEC effectively ended yesterday when the SEC officially withdrew its appeal. The XRP price reacted extremely positively to this development, trading at $3.3 at the time of writing. *This is not investment advice.

XRP has spent the early days of August reclaiming ground after briefly falling below the $3 mark , a move that reignited debate over its short-term trajectory. Following the asset’s quick recovery, many investors are closely watching for signs of stronger momentum. Against this backdrop, Cointelegraph asked the XRP community where they see its price at the end of the month. The range of responses revealed a strong bullish sentiment surrounding the digital asset. What's your $XRP price prediction this month? — Cointelegraph (@Cointelegraph) August 8, 2025 Where is XRP Going in August? Some users believe XRP could maintain moderate gains. One commenter set a $4 target, anticipating a new all-time high, while another predicted $3.58, just below the asset’s all-time high of $3.65, which it achieved in July . Others stayed within a similar range, with one commenter predicting a move to $3.72, and another anticipating a move to $3. These mid-range estimates suggest confidence in steady growth without expecting an immediate breakout. Several participants provided slightly higher numbers, indicating a belief that XRP could push toward $5. One community member believes XRP can reach $4.901, and another placed his end-of-the-month expectation at $4.35. Another commenter offered a $5.25 prediction, leaning toward a stronger finish for the month. We are on X, follow us to connect with us :- @TimesTabloid1 — TimesTabloid (@TimesTabloid1) June 15, 2025 More Ambitious Forecasts A subset of the community envisions substantially larger gains. Forecasts ranged from $8 to $10, with one commenter predicting the asset could reach $13, putting it firmly into double-digit territory . MackAttackXRP, a prominent community member who set the $13 target, believes spot XRP ETFs will help the asset reach that level. Multiple spot XRP ETF applications are pending SEC approval in the U.S., and other countries have taken the lead with their spot XRP ETFs. However, the XRP army is convinced that the SEC will soon approve these products in the U.S., and the green light from the commission could send XRP toward the $13 target. While this target would represent significant jumps in a short period, some community members have even higher targets. One commenter suggested the asset can easily hit $589, representing an astonishing 17,857% increase from the current price of $3.28. Now that Ripple and the SEC have officially dismissed their appeals and put an end to their legal battle, XRP may have a clear path toward such high targets. However, the asset may need more than one month to make that climb. Disclaimer : This content is meant to inform and should not be considered financial advice.

Institutional interest has propelled Bitcoin ETF inflows to over $400 million, primarily driven by BlackRock’s significant contributions, indicating a robust demand for regulated crypto exposure. BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust led
Solana Pushes to $200 as BIT Mining Plans $300M $SOL Treasury, Fueling Projects Like Snorter Token ($SNORT) $SOL is in full chart boom, pushing to $200 as BIT Mining takes steps to kickstart its $300M $SOL treasury. The Chinese company announced its plans to set up a $300M $SOL treasury on July 10, pivoting away from Bitcoin with the goal of ‘staying adaptive and responsive in an ever-evolving industry.’ Following that announcement, BIT Mining acquired 27,191 $SOL on August 5, for a total investment of $4.89M, to launch its self-operated Solana validator. The fact that one of China’s largest former Bitcoin mining companies is now shifting some of its attention to Solana is a powerful driving force behind $SOL’s recent performance. Solana Could Push Beyond $200 Soon $SOL is 10% up over the past 7 days, currently trading at $180.46 and still reflecting a 1.66% push in the last 24 hours. Solana also outperformed Ethereum on several counts, racking in 121M more transactions, 68x faster speeds, and 722x lower fees, according to a crypto analyst . This performance fired up $SOL, triggering technical indicators that hint at a coming bull run. $SOL already broke through the $180 psychological threshold, which could evolve into a full-on rally past $200. According to Crypto Potato analysts , $SOL is currently in a clear uptrend, displaying higher highs and higher lows, which could push it past the $185 resistance level. Once that happens, the token could break the $200 ceiling again. Analyst Zed agrees with this assessment, stating that $SOL clearing $180 is a precursor to another rally toward $200 and above. At the time of writing this article, $SOL has pushed to $182 with a 3.85% green pressure and an 85% bullish community sentiment. Pushing towards the $200 threshold would see $SOL gaining massive momentum which could further feed off of FOMO investments to test the $300 barrier. In this context, it won’t take long for crypto snipers to come online, which would bring a breath of fresh air to projects like Snorter Token.

Will $SOL Reach $200? $SOL is currently consolidating above the $180 threshold, as the common consensus is that the coin should theoretically push to $200. This is based on the historic chart indicators and $SOL’s recent bullish performance, triggered and sustained by the growing institutional adoption and investor trust. With $SOL pushing to, hopefully, a new ATH, Solana-based projects like Snorter Token ($SNORT) could see a massive influx of investors. This isn’t financial advice.

Eric Trump, the son of United States President Donald Trump, has warned his followers to stop betting against Bitcoin and Ethereum. Eric Trump made the statement while giving a subtle shade to the bears, after about $105 million worth of ETH shorts were wiped. Eric Trump made the statement to his 5.8 million followers, with the advice coming after Ethereum moved above $4,000 for the first time in eight months. Ethereum saw the largest short positions wipeout of the day after it hit a new point. The development prompted some analysts to say it could be setting the stage for a short squeeze. The comments didn’t go down well with Eric Trump, taking a jab at bearish traders. Eric Trump warns traders to stop betting against BTC and ETH Taking to the blogging platform X, Eric talked about the satisfaction he got from the short positions being liquidated. “It puts a smile on my face to see ETH shorts get smoked today. Stop betting against BTC and ETH – you will be run over,” Eric said. According to reports, about $105 million in Ethereum short positions that were liquidated in the market represented 53% of the total $199.61 million in short positions that were wiped out in the entire crypto market. Ethereum’s price jumped to as high as $4,060 over the day, representing a 4.6% rise in the last 24 hours, before dropping to $4,015. After ETH broke above the $4,000 price mark, there have been some major price predictions for the asset. Crypto trader Ash Crypto said that the real test will be the $4,100 price mark, noting that it is a major resistance. “If ETH breaks $4100, it could trigger a short squeeze which will send ETH to $4400-$4500 in just a few hours,” the crypto trader said. Another trader and commentator, Ted, also spoke about the institutional interest in ETH. “It’s never been this bullish in my opinion,” he said. According to Farside data, spot ETH ETFs have recorded about $537 million in inflows in the past four trading days. Popular crypto trader Moustache said, “I know it sounds wild, but I think ETH will go to $10,000+.” Meanwhile, Fundstrat co-founder Tom Lee has backed the digital asset to go all the way, noting that Ethereum is having its “Bitcoin 2017 moment” and he expects the asset to reach as high as $16,000. The asset has also continued to hold strength, showing signs that altcoins may be preparing for a big rally of about 500% as early as October. MN Trading Capital co-founder Michael van de Popped said in a previous X post that he is backing altcoins, saying the assets could post gains of 200-500% in the next 2-4 months. “The recent move of ETH is the first step forward to a more risk-on appetite,” he said. According to data, Ethereum’s relative strength against Bitcoin is up by 38.53% in the past 30 days. Most analysts see the rise in ETH’s price as an indicator of altcoin success, signaling a shift from Bitcoin to other risky assets. However, not all traders share the conviction that ETH’s current surge will last. Ash Crypto previously warned that Ethereum historically posts weak performances around this time of the year. He added that August and September are generally bearish months for crypto, so he would be cautious. The third quarter has been Ethereum’s weakest-performing over the last few years, dating back to 2016, delivering returns of about 6.48%, according to market data. The record has cast a gloomy look on the current rally, with most market participants skeptical about the continuation of the rally. Crypto trader Muneeb also took to X to share his opinion, noting that “this leg is done for now.” Get seen where it counts.
