XRP Price Prediction: One Vote Could Unlock XRP Ledger’s Next Big Upgrade

XRP is trading at $1.40, outperforming the crypto market and bearish price prediction, as the network’s next major upgrade is sitting one validator vote away from a two-week countdown to activation. The setup has been ignored in a red-candle news cycle, but it shouldn’t be.

The Batch V1.1 amendment, which lets users bundle up to eight linked transactions into a single atomic operation, had backing from 27 of 35 trusted validators as of Tuesday’s snapshot, or 77% of the total validators, just shy of the 80% threshold XRP Ledger requires for any protocol change.
