In brief

  • fixCleanup3_3_0 amendment activates September 11 with 82.86% validator support maintained
  • Bundled upgrade includes 11 fixes for vaults, lending, AMMs, and permissioned DEX
  • Amendment reached 80% threshold August 28 from 29 of 35 validators

Amendment Timeline and Governance

fixCleanup3_3_0 opened for voting on August 6 and quickly gained traction among the validator network. The XRPL's amendment system requires more than 80% validator support sustained over a two-week period before a change passes permanently. Once activated, the fix applies to all subsequent transactions on the network.

The amendment was introduced in XRPL software version 3.3.0, released in August. Validators have until September 11 to maintain support; if backing slips below 80%, the activation clock resets.

Scope of Fixes

fixCleanup3_3_0 bundles 11 changes across six core features: Single Asset Vaults, the Lending Protocol, Automated Market Makers, the permissioned DEX, Checks, and pseudo-accounts.

Key improvements include a fix to hybrid offers being removed from the open order book when accounts lose access to permissioned domains. The upgrade will also add Automated Market Maker liquidity to quality estimates for permissioned DEX order books and introduce further precision and rounding fixes for Single Asset Vaults and the Lending Protocol.

Pattern of Maintenance

This is the third consecutive maintenance bundle. fixCleanup3_1_3 activated in May with fixes for NFTs, Permissioned Domains, Vaults, and the Lending Protocol. fixCleanup3_2_0 followed in July with updates to Single Asset Vaults, the Lending Protocol, the permissioned DEX, Multi-Purpose Tokens, and permissioned domains.

The steady cadence reflects the XRPL's maturing DeFi ecosystem and the ongoing refinement required as new features stabilize in production.
