Officially, MoneyGram claims that it seeks to seal and redact the documents to protect employee privacy and businesses that fall under its header.
In 2019, a partnership between Ripple Labs and MoneyGram ensued and was widely reported as a major milestone for the blockchain firm.
MoneyGram has since made millions off of the deal, but suspended trading in February 2021 due to the ongoing lawsuit from the Securities and Exchange Commission.
