XRP Ledger is one vote away from starting its next big payments upgrade
The XRP Ledger is one vote away from initiating a payments-focused protocol update called Batch V1.1. The proposal, which would let users group up to eight linked transactions into a single operation, has secured support from 27 of the ledger's 35 trusted validators.
Why It Matters
If activated, Batch V1.1 would change how multiple linked transactions are submitted on the ledger, representing a material update to its payments functionality. With 27 of 35 trusted validators already backing the change, the measure is very close to meeting the threshold needed to begin activation.
Key Facts
- Proposal name: Batch V1.1
- Feature: Bundle up to eight linked transactions into one operation
- Validator support: 27 of 35 trusted validators backing the change
- Status: One vote away from starting the upgrade
The XRP Ledger is poised to begin a significant payments upgrade after a near-consensus among its trusted validators. The proposal known as Batch V1.1 has drawn support from 27 of the ledger's 35 trusted validators, leaving it just one vote short of the backing required to move forward.
Batch V1.1 would permit users to combine as many as eight linked transactions into a single operation on the ledger. That change is framed as a payments upgrade and would alter how groups of related transactions are submitted and processed.
Support from 27 trusted validators indicates widespread agreement within the validator set, and proponents say the proposal is a single additional vote away from reaching the level of support necessary to start activation. If that final validator signals in favor, the upgrade would proceed to the next steps toward deployment.
Observers tracking developments on the ledger will be watching for that final vote, which would enable Batch V1.1 to transition from proposal to activation and implement its bundled-transaction capability for users and integrators.
