XRP News: XRPL Records 2K Transactions from 20 Wallets

The XRP Ledger processed a record 3,254 transactions in ledger 106,965,249 yesterday, but 2,000 of the news came from just 20 accounts sending identical 1-drop payments, each worth one-millionth of an XRP.

The new high overtook two earlier single-ledger marks of 2,713 and 2,768 transactions, both set within a day of the record. At least 890 transactions failed with tec result codes but still burned fees, and the 20-account batch alone paid about 0.04 XRP in fees while moving just 0.002 XRP.

Combined, that batch moved just 0.002 XRP, less than a cent at current prices, while each transaction paid a 20-drop fee, meaning the group burned roughly five cents in aggregate to generate a transaction record with effectively zero economic transfer.
