🚨 CRITICAL: $XRP Ledger had a vulnerability that could've allowed UNLIMITED token minting

Here's what almost broke $XRP:

• Attackers could mint $XRP out of thin air using hundreds of special orders + 1 transfer
• Bypassed all safety checks designed to prevent new issuance
• Could've created $XRP far beyond max supply
• Bug existed since 2015 (!)

Timeline:
• Sep 22: Researcher reported
• Sep 25: Patch deployed

No evidence of exploitation. Fixed now.

But imagine if this got weaponized before disclosure. 9 years of exposure is insane.

$XRP holders dodged a nuke.
