A bug hidden in XRP’s ledger for ten years could have created XRP out of thin air, making its 100 billion hard cap almost meaningless. The official word is that it was quietly fixed on September 25, and there’s no evidence it was ever exploited.
My take: even a supposedly fixed supply depends on code to enforce it. Would this make you hold less $XRP, or do you think it’s water under the bridge now that it’s fixed? #XRP账本修复可增发XRP的漏洞
