AI-assisted source synthesis · not an independent investigation.
Previously, XRP Ledger had scheduled a two-week countdown for a vulnerability fix. On October 22, 2026, CoinDesk reported that, less than two days before the countdown ended, validator support fell to 26 of 35 validators for two consecutive hours, causing the fix proposal to fail and preventing it from proceeding as originally scheduled. The fix was therefore postponed until November. The report also said that support later recovered to 31 validators, but did not specify a new fix date, voting schedule, or other follow-up plans.
