The XRP Ledger has entered the final two-week countdown for its fixCleanup3_2_0 amendment after validator support exceeded the 80% approval threshold required by the network's governance rules. The bundled maintenance upgrade, which addresses precision and rounding issues in lending and permissioned domains, is scheduled to go live on July 29, 2026, at 09:57 UTC if support remains above the threshold.
Validator backing triggers activation window
According to XRP Ledger governance data, the amendment currently has 85.71% validator support, with 30 validators voting in favor and five against. Under the network's rules, an amendment must maintain at least 80% support for two consecutive weeks before activation. If support drops below that level during the countdown, the timer resets.
XRPL validator Vet shared the update on X, noting that 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, requiring validators to approve one package instead of voting on multiple independent changes.
Protocol fixes bundled in one amendment
The upgrade 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 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.
Ecosystem growth continues alongside protocol updates
The maintenance vote comes as development activity on XRP Ledger expands beyond core protocol updates. The network recently surpassed 1 million AI-powered payments processed through the x402 protocol, highlighting increasing use of AI-enabled payment applications. Ripple-backed t54.ai 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.
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.
