This release improves syncing performance including a new "fast load" setting, adds countermeasures for a security vulnerability in LZ4, and adjusts some tuning parameters to improve resource usage. Notably, this release limits pathfinding API methods to fewer and shorter paths because the previous pathfinding settings were causing excessive memory usage as a result of the overall size of the XRP Ledger Mainnet data.
This release supersedes version 1.8.3, and fixes an issue that was discovered during the release cycle.
Version 1.8.2 of rippled, the reference server implementation of the XRP Ledger protocol, is now available. This release addresses the full transaction queues and elevated transaction fees issue observed on the XRP ledger, and also provides some optimizations and small fixes to improve the server's performance overall.
Due to the holidays, version 1.8.2 is being made available as a "soft release" in the unstable package channel so that operators who are interested can upgrade. Automatic updates will not update to this release until it is pushed to the stable branch at a later date.
Version 1.8.1 of rippled, the reference server implementation of the XRP Ledger protocol, is now available. This release contains several improvements and optimizations to improve stability and performance under load, along with other features and fixes including deterministic history shards, default amendment votes, and the CheckCashMakesTrustLine amendment.
This release supersedes version 1.8.0. Version 1.8.1 makes additional changes to database tuning parameters to optimize start-up and syncing time. It is highly recommended that operators upgrade to 1.8.1 as soon as possible because the optimizations in this release should help alleviate some of the pressure on the network from increased usage.
Version 1.7.3 of rippled, the reference server implementation of the XRP Ledger protocol, is now available. This release addresses an out-of-bounds memory read identified by Guido Vranken, as well as an unrelated issue identified by the Ripple C++ team that could result in incorrect use of internal data structures. By community demand, this version also introduces the NegativeUNL amendment, which corresponds to the feature which was introduced in the 1.6.0 release.
Version 1.7.2 of rippled, the reference server implementation of the XRP Ledger protocol, is now available. This release protects against the security issue CVE-2021-3499 affecting OpenSSL, adds an amendment to fix an issue with small offers not being properly removed from order books in some cases, and includes various other minor fixes.
This release supersedes version 1.7.1 and adds fixes for more issues that were discovered during the release cycle.
Today, version 1.7.0 of the reference implementation of the software behind the XRP Ledger (XRPL) was released with key contributions from RippleX aimed at improving the Ledger’s decentralization, security and efficiency.
In this post, RippleX breaks down some of the changes and highlights in the release.
Ripple has released version 1.7.0 of rippled, the reference server implementation of the XRP Ledger protocol. This release significantly improves memory usage, introduces a protocol amendment to allow out-of-order transaction execution with Tickets, and brings several other features and improvements.
XRP Ledger (rippled server) version 1.6.0 has been released. This release introduces several new features including changes to the XRP Ledger's consensus mechanism to make it even more robust in adverse conditions, as well as numerous bug fixes and optimizations. (This post has been updated with recommendations for upgrading.)
XRP Ledger (rippled server) version 1.5.0 has been released. The rippled 1.5.0 release introduces several improvements and new features, including support for gRPC API, API versioning, UNL propagation via the peer network, new RPC methods validator_info and manifest, augmented submit method, improved tx method, improved CLI parsing, improved protocol-level handshaking protocol, improved package building and various other minor bug fixes and improvements.
XRP Ledger (rippled server) version 1.4.0 has been released. The XRP Ledger version 1.4.0 introduces several new features and overall improvements to the codebase, including the DeletableAccounts Amendment, which allows users to delete XRP Ledger accounts and recover some of their account base reserve in the process.
The 1.4.0 release also includes improved peer slot management, improved CI integration and package building and support for C++17 and Boost 1.71.
Ripple has released version 1.3.1 of rippled, the reference implementation of the core XRP Ledger protocol. To learn more about how to build and run a rippled server, see Manage the Rippled Server.
This release supersedes version 1.3.0. Version 1.3.1 addresses deadlock conditions reported by some users late in the release cycle for 1.3.0.
Ripple has released version 1.2.4 of rippled, the reference implementation of the core XRP Ledger protocol.
Version 1.2.4 improves the verification and routing of shard crawl requests and imposes a 20 second timeout onto the component that checks for an updated validator list to prevent it from becoming blocked for an indefinite amount of time.
Ripple has released version 1.2.3 of rippled, the reference implementation of the core XRP Ledger protocol.
Version 1.2.3 corrects a technical flaw that could, in rare circumstances, cause the server to dereference a null pointer, which could result in the server process being terminated by the operating system.
Ripple has released version 1.2.2 of rippled, our reference implementation of the core XRP Ledger server.
Version 1.2.2 corrects a technical flaw in the fee escalation engine which could cause some fee metrics to be calculated incorrectly. In some circumstances this can potentially cause the server to crash.
Ripple has released version 1.2.1 of rippled, our reference implementation of the core XRP Ledger server.
Version 1.2.1 introduces several fixes including:
A change in the information reported via the enhanced crawl functionality introduced in version 1.2.0.
A fix for a potential race condition when processing a status message for a peer.
A fix for a technical flaw that could cause a server to not properly detect that it had lost connectivity.
Version 1.2.1 also adds the delivered_amount field to more responses to simplify the handling of payment or check cashing transactions.
Ripple is pleased to announce the release of XRP Ledger (rippled) version 1.2.0.
The XRP Ledger version 1.2.0 release introduces the MultisignReserve Amendment, which reduces the reserve requirement associated with signer lists for Multisign. This release also includes incremental improvements to the code that handles offers in the decentralized exchange (fixTakerDryOfferRemoval and fix1578 Amendments).
One of the major benefits of decentralized blockchain technologies, such as the XRP Ledger, is censorship resistance. Already highly resistant to censorship attempts, with the release of version 1.2.0 of the XRP Ledger, servers now have the ability to automatically detect transaction censorship attempts and issue warnings of increasing severity for transactions that a server believes should have been included in a closed ledger after several rounds of consensus.
Ripple is proud to announce the release of XRP Ledger (rippled) version 1.1.2.
The XRP Ledger version 1.1.2 release includes a fix for a technical issue in the consensus "preferred ledger by branch" code, which could cause a validator to fail to settle on a single preferred branch of unconfirmed ledger history. While this is not entirely unexpected and the code is designed to handle it, this issue exposed a corner case where the stringent safety guarantees of the consensus algorithm, as outlined in the recent Analysis of the XRP Ledger Consensus Protocol paper, make it difficult for the entire network to efficiently recover from this condition.
Ripple has released rippled version 1.1.1, which improves handling of validator list sites. These changes improve retrieval of Ripple's recommended UNL for servers in restrictive network environments, and prevent incorrect behavior in cases where a server is unable to fetch a validator list update before the previous list expires.
Ripple is pleased to announce the release of XRP Ledger (rippled) version 1.1.0.
Ripple has released rippled version 1.0.1, which includes fixes for issues identified by Ripple engineers and reported by external security researchers. These issues, when exploited, could cause a rippled instance to restart or, in some circumstances, stop executing.
Today, after almost 6 years of hard work, Ripple is very pleased to announce the release of rippled version 1.0.0.
Ripple has released rippled version 0.90.1, which includes fixes for issues reported by external security researchers. These issues, when exploited, could cause a rippled instance to restart or, in some circumstances, stop executing.

The rippled team has released rippled version 0.70.2, which corrects an emergent behavior that resulted in high transaction costs and fewer transactions in validated ledgers over the past few days. The problematic behavior involved large numbers of transactions being stuck in different rippled instances' open ledgers without being consistently relayed to validators. The large number of "stuck" transactions filled the transaction queue and caused a dramatic increase in the open ledger cost.
UPDATE 7-12-2017: This announcement now contains corrected SHA-256 values for the RPM and source RPM.
The rippled team has released rippled version 0.70.1, which corrects a technical flaw in the newly refactored consensus code that could, in rare cases, cause a node to get stuck in consensus due to stale votes from a peer. Ripple requires upgrading to rippled version 0.70.1 immediately.
