After the judge granted Ripple to seal some of its communication on matters regarding the position of XRP and Ripple’s control of the currency, the same judge forced the agency to divulge its communication on why it didn’t classify ETH and BTC.

Additionally, the judge said Brad Garlinghouse and Chris Larsen didn’t have to reveal their personal financial information.

Supporters say these are “key” legal winnings that saw the XRP price surge over 130 percent last week.

It is now trading at 4-year highs, at Q1 2018 highs. Interestingly, it also saw the relisting of XRP by Crypto.com.

It is a massive boost for XRP because, since the SEC lawsuit announcement on Dec 22, several exchanges did suspend the coin’s trading, significantly affecting its liquidity.
