XRP Ledger has just reached a new major milestone. XRPScanan XRP Ledger explorer and network analysis platform, reports this milestone in X.
The 84 millionth XRP Ledger ledger has been successfully closed, marking a new milestone for the Layer 1 platform. According to the XRPScan page, the current ledger count is 84,019,694.
On October 5, XRP Ledger closed its 83 millionth ledger, implying that it gained 1 million ledger transactions in six weeks.
XRP Ledger continues to boom with innovations and upcoming developments. Last week, two new XLS specifications were released for the XRP Ledger.
First, “XLS-49d: Multi-Signer Lists” was released, which will enable support for multi-signer lists per account. Additionally, a new specification for NFT escrows was released, “0051 XLS-51d: NFToken Escrows.”
Currently, XRP Ledger only supports escrow for one type of token, XRP. Now that XLS-20 is live on the network and there are around 4 million NFTs on the ledger, users may want to be able to escrow their NFTs, just as they would with their funds.
Since the Escrow object currently exists in XRPL, “0051 XLS-51d: NFToken Escrows” suggests a minor change to implement NFT escrows.
XRP Ledger may also get new features in the coming days. More than 80% of validators supported two amendments, “fixNFTokenRemint” and “fixReducedOffersV1”, which are now in a two-week countdown period.
Peersyst Technology announced over the weekend that the EVM sidechain and XLS 38 bridge passed a security audit by Bishop Fox.
The EVM sidechain, developed by Peersyst in partnership with Ripple, launched its devnet version (v2) in June 2023.
