XRP Ledger fixed a decade-old bug: it almost enabled coins to be minted out of thin air An arithmetic overflow vulnerability was found in the XRP Ledger’s payment engine: by first placing hundreds of malformed orders and then consuming them all with a single payment, an attacker could theoretically create extra XRP out of thin air, and the additional XRP could still be spent normally. The security checks designed to prevent coin creation used the same algorithm, made the same calculation error, and failed to block it. The bug had been hidden in the code since 2015 and was only uncovered by researchers last month. Version 3.4.1 has fixed the issue, and the official team said it found no signs of exploitation. For now, treat it as a false alarm rather than immediately viewing it as bearish. $XRP

If patience was a tradeable asset, $XRP holders would be whale status right now. Price action is practically sleeping on the chart, grinding out micro-gains while staying clamped between key levels.
