The federal regulatory agency described the judgment as a ‘wrong decision’ and that it seeks to review the ruling. Interestingly, it had signaled that the SEC staff was considering several options for reviewing the decision. On July 13, 2023, the judge ruled that sale of the tokens to retail investors does not qualify as sale of securities.<\/p>\n Also Read: Crypto Exchange Gemini Teases Hint Of XRP Relisting Soon<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Earlier, CoinGape Reported<\/a> that the SEC should be acting fast if it were to go for an appeal of the Summary Judgment.
