Not investment advice. Muhabbit scores how much a story may matter, not which way to trade.

The XRP Ledger activated the `fixCleanup3_4_0` amendment on December 4 at 11:52 p.m. KST, closing a loophole that let accounts granted only token-burn authority (PaymentBurn) issue new tokens without holding issuance rights; the fix was applied via an EnableAmendment transaction at ledger 108,112,129, slightly later than the 11:46 p.m. estimate. The change matters because delegated permissions are increasingly used across the XRPL ecosystem, and unintended minting could distort token supply for issued assets. XRP's price and network activity were not cited in the report. Next, watch for adoption of the amendment across validator and node operators and whether similar permission-edge cases surface in future cleanup proposals.
