The lawsuit between investor Vladi Zakinov and Ripple Labs is still ongoing. The main issue at hand is the plaintiffs accusing Ripple of not having registered XRP as a security before the token sale. The plaintiff had purchased 129,000XRP in January 2018 and incurred a $189,600 loss a short while later by converting to other cryptocurrencies.

Last month, the defendant Ripple, filed a motion to dismiss the case based on technicalities as they consider the matter of XRP not being a security as handled as even the U.S. Departments of Justice and Treasury had recognized XRP as a “convertible virtual currency” in 2015. Additionally, the UK’s financial watchdog, the FCA had also deemed XRP to not be a security.
On February 26th, Judge Phyllis Hamilton of the Court of the Northern District of California granted part of Ripple’s motion to dismiss and denied a part. The granted part were four documents to be taken by the court on judicial notice: a statement of facts from the federal government’s 2015 settlement with defendants Ripple Labs and defendant Ripple XRP II, the “Ripple Credits” page from Wiki, Q1 2018 XRP market report and an article titled “Ripple is sitting on close to $80 billion and could cash out hundreds of millions per month—but it isn’t”.
The case will be moving forward and we are yet to find out what the US justice system will rule. Many have misconceptions about the history of XRP and Ripple and the “XRP is a security” issue has been around for a long time now. This lawsuit may bring the end of that discussion.

With over 2.4M tokens and widespread misinformation in crypto, we cut
through the noise and consistently find winning assets.
























Can I trust Cryptonary's calls?
Yes. We've consistently identified winners across multiple cycles. Bitcoin under $1,000, Ethereum under $70, Solana under $10, WIF from $0.003 to $5, PopCat from $0.004 to $2, SPX blasting past $1.70, and our latest pick has already 200X'd since June 2025. Everything is timestamped and public record.
Do I need to be an experienced trader or investor to benefit?
No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.
What makes Cryptonary different from free crypto content on YouTube or Twitter?
Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.
Why is there no trial or refund policy?
We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.
Do I get direct access to the Cryptonary team?
Yes. You will have 24/7 to the team that bought you BTC at $1,000, ETH at $70, and SOL at $10. Through our community chats, live Q&As, and member only channels, you can ask questions and interact directly with the team. Our team has over 50 years of combined experience which you can tap into every single day.
How often is content updated?
Daily. We provide real-time updates, weekly reports, emergency alerts, and live Q&As when the markets move fast. In crypto, the market moves fast, in Cryptonary, we move faster.
How does the success guarantee work?
If our approach to the market doesn’t beat the overall crypto market during your subscription, we’ll give you a full refund of your membership fee. No questions asked. For quarterly and monthly subscribers this is applicable once your subscription runs for 6 consecutive months.
