XRP Ledger’s Batch V1.1 upgrade is one vote away from activation

XRP Ledger’s Batch V1.1 amendment is now one validator vote short of starting the activation process, according to ChainCatcher. In a Tuesday snapshot, the proposal won support from 27 of 35 trusted validators, or about 77%, just below the 80% threshold required for XRPL amendments. If it gains one more vote, the network will begin a two-week activation countdown. That support level must remain above the threshold for 14 days, and validators can still change their votes during that period. RippleX said its latest review fixed 11 software bugs. The Batch feature would let users combine up to eight related transactions into a single operation, including token swaps where both sides settle together. The original Batch proposal never reached mainnet after researchers found a flaw that could let an attacker initiate transactions from another account under certain conditions. The revised version shipped with xrpld 3.3.0 on Aug. 6. RippleX said the review involved four senior engineers, audits by Halborn and Common Prefix, a public security competition, and automated testing.
