XRPL Upgrade To Hamper Severs On Large Scale?

An amendment tagged as “CryptoConditionsSuite” is intended to add support for several crypto conditions to be used in “EscrowCreate” and “EscrowFinish” transactions. However, this amendment was added to Rippled v0.60.0 before the implementation.

It seems like validators are not in support of one of its adaptations which might lead to the blocking of a ton of servers. The servers that run on old “rippled code’ are on the radar of being affected. An expert highlighted that the server must run on at least v1.10.0 in order to escape from the amendment blocked. However, the amendment was brought in to protect the accuracy of XRPL data.

According to the data, more than 200 nodes and 15 validators are still running on the old “rippled code” that will be directly impacted by the passing of the amendment. Read More XRP News Here…

The XRPL community is still voting on many other amendments which include fixing Non-Fungible Tokens (NFT) and reducing fees related to issues.

One of the crucial amendments, “DisallowIncoming” will add four additional settings or checks to the ledger in order to provide advanced permission on the accounts.

However, voters are also close to fixing unburnable NFTs. As of now, an NFT cannot be burned when receives more than 500 offers. Once the restriction is removed, 500 offers will be deleted on the burning of the NFT, while other offers won’t get affected.

As XRPL faces voting over amendments, XRP price is down by around 2% in the last 24 hours. It is trading at an average price of $0.45, at the press time.
