Crypto Industry News:

After 933 days of arduous battle with the SEC, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, Ripple ($XRP) has finally won a crucial victory. The federal judge overseeing the case ruled that the XRP token “is not necessarily a security.” Still, this is not yet a complete victory for the company. However, the mere use of these words is a milestone in the Ripple vs. SEC process, to which alternative cryptocurrencies (altcoins) reacted instantly. XRP increases by 30%, ADA, SOL and others 10%.

There has been a legal dispute for years over the status of Ripple’s cryptocurrency, $XRP, as an alleged unregistered security. The US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) then took legal action against Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse and co-founder Christian A. Larsen, claiming that XRP was an asset traded illegally. This lawsuit had significant ramifications for Ripple and the wider cryptocurrency industry, in particular altcoins.

However, a ruling by U.S. Judge Analisa Torres has brought some clarity to this unfortunate situation. Judge Torres ruled that XRP is not a security, putting finally an end to the SEC’s claims regarding its status.

Technical Market Outlook:

The ETH/USD pair has been seen trading above the level of $2,000 with the last high made at the level of $2,027 (at the time of writing the analysis). The intraday technical support is seen at $1,974 and the intraday technical resistance is located at $2,027. Please notice, that the market conditions on the H4 time frame chart are extremely overbought, so the market might pull-back soon. Nevertheless, the next target for bulls is seen at the level of $2,140, which is the yearly high.

This is the key level for bulls, so it needs to be broken in order to continue the up trend. The key technical support is seen at $1,368, so as long as the market trades above this level, the outlook remains bullish.
