XRP Ledger 3.0 Version Launched: Protocol Fixes + Embedded Lending Functionality, Daily Average Transaction Volume Stabilizes at 700,000

Abstract generation in progress

[Crypto World] The XRP Ledger just made a big move—the core server, rippled, jumped straight to version 3.0. This isn’t just minor tweaks; dozens of code optimizations cover the consensus layer, ledger processing, and node communication. They also specifically fixed a protocol vulnerability, and laid the groundwork for upcoming lending features.

Just last month, they released the 2.6.2 patch, which mainly addressed bulk transaction lag and activated the “smart escrow” feature. Such a rapid pace of technical iteration is actually backed by data—after a recent surge, the XRP Ledger’s average daily payment volume peaked at 4 times the usual level( and now stabilizes at around 600,000 to 700,000 transactions per day.

Judging by the update cadence, the development team is preparing for more complex financial scenarios. Protocol-level fixes are coordinated with new feature rollouts, and with on-chain activity remaining high, this combination shows a pretty strategic approach.

An average of 700,000 payments per day—how stable is that! But will the lending feature really be more appealing than the current ecosystem?

An average of 700,000 transactions per day—this pace is pretty intense. Once the lending feature goes live, it might just explode.

As soon as 3.0 launched, it rolled out dozens of optimizations at once—the pace is honestly pretty intense, looks like they’re really paving the way for something big. The lending feature isn’t even live yet and they’re already laying the groundwork. This round of planning is definitely something. A steady daily volume of 700,000 transactions shows the system is getting stronger, but the real test will be whether the lending part can actually be implemented. Fixing protocol vulnerabilities actually makes me a bit nervous—just how serious were the issues they found during the earlier audits? These frequent updates feel a bit like they’re racing against the clock—makes you wonder if it’s due to genuine demand or pressure from somewhere.

The frequent updates are really intense, but we still have to wait for news on the lending feature. Just fixing bugs without releasing anything new feels a bit underwhelming.

3.0 isn't even live yet and I've already heard they're fixing bugs again; this dev team's pace is honestly a bit rushed. This XRP update looks serious; leaving protocol vulnerabilities unfixed is definitely stressful. Lending feature being laid out in advance? Seems like they're trying to grab some DeFi business. 700,000 daily payments... sounds impressive, but is the actual transaction volume inflated? Will this update end up like the last one, where fixing one issue causes another somewhere else? Rapid iterations do show sincerity, just not sure how long they can keep it up. Stabilized at 700,000 transactions? That's an improvement compared to before, let's see how it performs going forward.

Whoa, going straight to version 3.0? That’s pretty aggressive. Dozens of optimizations plus groundwork for lending features—clearly setting up for a big move next. With an average of 700,000 daily transactions holding steady, it looks like the tech iteration is keeping up with demand. Fixing protocol vulnerabilities while laying the foundation for new features—that’s real product thinking, way better than a bunch of vaporware projects.
