Ripple just disclosed they patched a 2015 bug that could've minted billions of $XRP out of thin air.
Let that sink in. A bug that old, sitting there, never exploited. Either nobody found it or someone did and kept quiet.
Either way, $XRP at $88.8B mcap dodged a nuke. If that exploit had been triggered, supply inflation would've wrecked confidence overnight.
This is why code audits and transparency matter. One hidden flaw = entire tokenomics collapse.
Bullish that it's fixed. But makes you wonder what else is lurking in legacy chains.
