According to reports from ChainCatcher, as reported by U.Today, Ripple engineer Mayukha Vadari warned that security threats are increasing with the emergence of artificial intelligence. The warning came after developers discovered a critical vulnerability in the XRP Ledger (XRPL) that could have allowed attackers to mint up to 18.45 trillion XRP, more than 184 times the initial supply. The vulnerability was identified by Veria AI on September 21, and researchers submitted a report through the XRP Ledger Bug Bounty Program the following day. Although XRPL developers have not found any evidence that the vulnerability was exploited, its discovery prompted the development team to release an emergency update, XRPLD 3.4.1, on September 25. The source code has not yet been made public, raising questions about the project’s open-source nature.

#Gate亮相TOKEN2049 XRP 1.3949, 4H bottoming rebound, 1.3177 determines direction Market: After probing 1.3177 on the 4H chart, it rebounded to 1.3949, down -0.95% over 24H (high 1.4114/low 1.3865). In a bearish channel since 1.5308, MA5/10 (1.3995/1.3988) are converging and capping price, MA30 (1.4184) is a short-side unit, volume has contracted, and the funding rate is moderate at 0.00363%; confirmation of resistance at 1.4114 is needed. Key levels: • Support: 1.3865 (24H low), 1.3675 (recent range bottom), 1.3177 (previous low) • Resistance: 1.4114 (24H high/MA5/10 cap), 1.4184 (MA30/short-side unit), 1.5308 (period high) • Targets: A break below 1.3865 targets 1.3675→1.3177; holding above 1.4114 targets 1.4184 Objective scenarios: 1. Resistance at 1.4114 + break below 1.3865 → target 1.3675→1.3177 2. Holding above 1.4114 with increased volume → target 1.4184 (short-side unit), reduce position upon reaching it 3. Neither breaking below nor holding above → range between 1.3865-1.4114 Trading perspective (my position: short at 1.4184): Hold the short position at 1.4184, with an unrealized profit of approximately 0.0235. Do not add to the position if a rebound into 1.4114-1.4184 meets resistance; first target 1.3865, then 1.3675→1.3177 on a breakdown. Defense at 1.4184; reduce the position and lock in profit if price moves above it. Do not chase the downside with shorts; wait for resistance. Core: 1.4114 is the litmus test; if resistance holds and 1.3865 breaks, follow the short side toward 1.3177 and hold 🔥

the biggest hack in crypto history almost happened last month and nobody noticed a bug was sitting inside XRP’s code since 2015. TEN YEARS this bug could have let anyone create 18 trillion XRP out of thin air in one single transaction XRP has a fixed supply of 100 billion. this bug could mint 184 times that $94 billion at risk bro. that’s 60x bigger than the hack let me break it down: imagine a bank prints exactly 100 million dollars and says “this is all that will ever exist” ten years later someone discovers the printing machine has a glitch press the buttons in a certain order and it prints unlimited money. no authorization needed the bank never knew. the glitch was there from day one a security researcher found it before anyone else did. reported it quietly. fixed in 3 days. nobody lost anything but for ten years anyone could have found those buttons the only reason $94 billion is still safe is because the wrong person never looked hard enough that’s not security bro. that’s luck
