Important alerts issued to node validators
In a tweet, RippleX issued a warning to node validators as a critical date approaches. As a friendly reminder, RippleX urges node operators to upgrade before the XRPL v.3.0.0 fix goes into effect on Tuesday, January 27th.
Since all XRPL version 3.0.0 fixes have been triggered for mainnet adoption, it is important that operators or validators of XRPL nodes upgrade their software to the current version to avoid blocking fixes.
XRPL version 3.0.0 includes five fixes including fixTokenEscrowV1, fixIncludeKeyletFields, fixMPTDeliveredAmount, fixAMMClawbackRounding, and fixPriceOracleOrder. The majority of authorized domains, which are building blocks for institutional compliance, are scheduled for activation on mainnet on February 4th.
