XRP Ledger Fix Could Enable New Issuance: Vulnerability Patched, Losses Still Unknown

A ledger fix that could enable new issuance sounds like a backdoor into your wallet. Today, $XRP ’s ledger vulnerability is a hot topic on the forum. News of the fix sent discussion soaring, but I’m not rushing to jump in.

The fix is a good thing, but it only protects against future risks; it doesn’t make up for past losses. If the vulnerability was exploited before it was patched, holders’ assets may already have been quietly diluted. Public data hasn’t yet shown how much was issued, so the key things to watch are changes in the total on-chain supply and the patch’s timestamp. Those figures are more honest than any official statement.

Don’t be swayed by the “security restored” narrative. The coins you hold will only be truly safe once the total on-chain supply stops changing.
