The XRP Ledger’s Batch V1.1 upgrade is one vote away from being activated. Out of 35 validator nodes, 27 have agreed, but the rule requires 80% continuous support for 14 days—right now it’s stuck at 77%. This upgrade lets up to 8 transactions be bundled into one execution, so if two people complete a token exchange at the same time, there’s no need to do it in two separate steps. RippleX also took the opportunity to fix 11 security vulnerabilities. If one node flips sides, the DeFi narrative around $XRP will take a big step forward. But what’s really interesting is who is voting against it—and why. Do you think this one will pass?
