XRP Ledger has entered the final two-week activation countdown for its fixCleanup3_2_0 amendment after validator support exceeded the network’s required 80% approval threshold.
Summary
- XRP Ledger’s fixCleanup3_2_0 amendment has entered its two-week activation countdown.
- The upgrade bundles protocol fixes for lending, permissioned domains, and the Permissioned DEX.
- Activation is scheduled for July 29 if validator support stays above the 80% threshold.
According to XRP Ledger governance data, the bundled maintenance amendment currently has 85.71% validator support, with 30 validators voting in favor and five against.
Under the network’s governance rules, an amendment must maintain at least 80% support for two consecutive weeks before it can be activated on the mainnet. If support drops below that level during the countdown, the activation timer resets.
Validator approval has moved the amendment into its final activation stage
With the voting threshold now secured, the amendment has entered its activation phase and is currently scheduled to go live on July 29, 2026, at 09:57 UTC, provided validator backing remains above the required level throughout the waiting period.
XRPL validator Vet shared the update on X, noting that fixCleanup3_2_0 is now in its two-week activation window. Vet also said node operators will need to update their software before the amendment becomes active to ensure compatibility with the protocol changes.
Unlike feature-focused upgrades, fixCleanup3_2_0 combines several maintenance fixes into a single amendment. The package addresses precision and rounding issues affecting Single Asset Vaults and the Lending Protocol while also correcting behavior in Permissioned Domains and the Permissioned DEX introduced alongside XRPL v3.2.0.
Additional protocol changes validate non-canonical Multi-Purpose Token (MPT) amounts, introduce zero DomainID verification for permissioned domains, and correct an invariant governing valid Permissioned DEX offer deletions. The amendment also adds another ledger invariant designed to prevent account deletions from leaving directly accessible artifacts behind.
By grouping multiple maintenance updates into one amendment, the XRP Ledger governance process requires validators to approve a single package instead of voting on several independent protocol changes.
Recent ecosystem growth has expanded activity around the network
The maintenance vote comes as development activity on XRP Ledger continues to expand beyond core protocol updates. Earlier, the network surpassed 1 million AI-powered payments processed through the x402 protocol, highlighting increasing use of AI-enabled payment applications.
Ripple-backed t54.ai recently launched the XRPL AI Hub, a platform that brings together AI projects, autonomous agents, developer tools, payment services, and technical documentation in one place.
According to t54.ai, the hub was introduced with support from Ripple developers and the XRP Ledger Foundation to help developers discover and build AI applications on the XRP Ledger.
Although the AI Hub launch is separate from the fixCleanup3_2_0 amendment, both developments arrive as the network continues improving infrastructure for decentralized finance, tokenization, permissioned trading, and AI-powered payment services.
If validator support remains above the required threshold until the end of the activation window, fixCleanup3_2_0 will become the latest protocol update added to the XRP Ledger without requiring another round of governance voting.
