XRP Ledger bug fix delayed to Nov. 4 after validator support briefly dipped

  • —Support briefly fell to 26 of 35 validators, below the 29 threshold
  • —Votes are checked every 15 minutes and must hold for 14 straight days
  • —The patch closes a token-creation loophole and adjusts vault and lending math
  • —The broader lending system still lacks votes to start its own countdown
Why it matters: The delay pushes back the lending protocol Ripple has pitched to banks and payment firms on the XRP Ledger.
