In a historic development for the cryptocurrency industry, XRP is on the verge of becoming the first digital asset to achieve full legal clarity in the United States, potentially closing the chapter on years of legal battles with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
After a series of critical courtroom victories—including the landmark 2023 ruling that XRP is not a security when traded on secondary markets—Ripple, the company behind XRP, now finds itself in a commanding legal position. With growing speculation that the SEC may soon drop its appeal, XRP could emerge as the only major cryptocurrency with judicial backing and regulatory certainty in the U.S.
This unprecedented legal status would set XRP apart in a market still clouded by regulatory ambiguity, opening new pathways for institutional investment, global partnerships, and broader integration into traditional finance systems.
At the same time, the XRP Ledger (XRPL) continues to attract innovative projects building real-world utility on-chain. Most notably, RealFI has officially launched the REAL token on the XRP Ledger, a move that could redefine how global real estate operates.
RealFI proudly announced the successful launch of the REAL token on June 7th, 2025, initiating the tokenization of the massive $654.39 trillion global real estate market. By leveraging the XRP Ledger’s fast, low-cost, and scalable architecture, the REAL token is engineered to bring efficiency, transparency, and global accessibility to real estate transactions.
Capped at a total supply of 100 million tokens, $REAL is positioned as a universal Real Estate Currency—empowering use cases ranging from rent payments to full property acquisitions. The initiative underscores RealFI’s vision of integrating real-world assets into the digital economy and signals a broader trend of blockchain-based asset tokenization.
“REAL token isn’t just about real estate—it’s a bridge between physical value and digital trust,” stated a RealFI spokesperson. “The XRP Ledger provides the infrastructure to make this vision scalable and secure.”
As XRP nears regulatory vindication, and as transformative projects like RealFI launch on its blockchain, the asset is not only escaping legal limbo—it is poised to lead the next chapter of digital finance. If the SEC officially closes the case, XRP will be the first legally cleared crypto, turning the tide for the entire industry and setting a precedent for innovation backed by clarity.
