Is there something deeper here, or only Ripple’s attempt to whitewash its reputation after the SEC lawsuit?
I feel that it was a mistake for representatives of Mozilla and these other organizations to endorse the Interledger Foundation. Coinbase has been restricting XRP from being bought, sold, or traded ever since the SEC sued Ripple Labs just over a year ago.[2]

The ultimate goal is to allow disparate account holding institutions ( banks, digital wallets, crypto wallets etc) to have an interoperable mechanism for clearing payments between each other. Settlement between these parties is for them to decide.
The next goal for us to to enable a layer on top of Interledger to create an effective global open banking spec, which is called Open Payments[0]. Just a side note, with a backbone of ILP there is many applications that could potentially be built on top. As ILP has decided to take a layered approach to the stack, similar to the internet.
