XRPL v3.0.0 Release & Upgrade Requirements

The XRP Ledger Foundation has issued an urgent upgrade alert for node operators following the rippled version 3.0.0 release.

XRPL v3.0.0 introduces new (currently disabled) amendments: LendingProtocol, DynamicMPT, and fixDelegateV1_1. These amendments are nearly code complete but not yet open for voting. Node operators are urged to upgrade ASAP to ensure service continuity.

Testing & Risk Mitigation

Node operators and developers are encouraged to test these amendments in standalone mode to help identify bugs early and reduce activation risk once they are enabled for voting. A key advantage of the XRP Ledger consensus mechanism is the ability to test rippled behavior before amendments are fully enabled on the production network by running servers in stand-alone mode.

The rippled v3.0.0 release includes several core ledger improvements and fix amendments, including a Token Escrow fix that addresses a bug discovered in the original amendment.

Ecosystem Amendment Adoption Status

XRPL validator Vet recently highlighted hesitancy in the XRPL ecosystem, with several amendments yet to achieve majority consensus despite ongoing voting:

• “fixIncludeKeyletFields,” “fixMPTDeliveredAmount,” “fixTokenEscrowV1,” and “fixPriceOracleOrderfix” have reached only 20.59% consensus
• “AMMClawbackRounding” gained 17.65% consensus

Vet emphasizes the importance of proper testing to prevent ledger-corrupting bugs, citing past incidents like the AMM bug and the Permission Delegation bug—the latter caught before going live, potentially preventing devastating consequences for XRP holders.

Community Safety Enhancement

XRP explorer xrpscan announced its integration with Chainabuse, enabling the platform to flag suspicious accounts reported to Chainabuse and redirect scammed XRP users to report crypto scams.
