XRPL Lending Amendment Moves Closer To 80% Validator Threshold

The XRP Ledger’s XLS-66d lending amendment has moved closer to the validator consensus threshold required for activation, with active support reaching 71.4%.

The amendment would introduce native uncollateralized lending primitives to XRPL, adding another potential DeFi feature to a ledger best known for payments and settlement. That is a big deal, but it is not live yet.

XRPL amendments need sustained validator support before activation.

The threshold is 80%, and that support has to hold for 14 days. So 71.4% is close enough to matter, but not enough to declare victory.
