rippled Version 0.81.0

Ripple has released rippled version 0.81.0, which introduces changes that improve the scalability of the XRP Ledger and transitions the recommended validator configuration to a new hosted site, as described in Ripple's Decentralization Strategy Update post.

Ripple strongly recommends upgrading to rippled version 0.81.0 immediately.

Action Required

If you operate a rippled server, then you should upgrade to rippled version 0.81.0 immediately.

Ripple recommends that you:

  • Edit your rippled.cfg to remove the [validators] section, if one is present.
  • Replace the contents of any existing validators.txt file with the version included with this release. If you are upgrading to rippled version 0.81.0 using the rippled RPM package, then your default validators.txt file may automatically be updated, in which case you will not need to modify the file. The validators.txt file is usually in the same directory as your rippled.cfg file.
  • After starting your rippled server, confirm that it is configured to use the new defaults by executing:

/opt/ripple/bin/rippled validators

The result should include the following:

"local_static_keys" : [], "publisher_lists" : [ { "available" : true, "expiration" : "2018-Jan-23 00:00:00", "list" : [ "nHB1FqfBpNg7UTpiqEUkKcAiWqC2PFuoGY7FPWtCcXAxSkhpqDkm", "nHUpwrafS45zmi6eT72XS5ijpkW5JwfL5mLdPhEibrqUvtRcMAjU", "nHUBGitjsiaiMJBWKYsJBHU2shmYt9m29hRqoh8AS5bSAjXoHmdd", "nHUXh1ELizQ5QLLqtNaVEbbbfMdq3wMkh14aJo5xi83xzzaatWWP", "nHUgoJvpqXZMZwxh8ZoFseFJEVF8ryup9r2mFYchX7ftMdNn3jLT" ], "pubkey_publisher" : "ED2677ABFFD1B33AC6FBC3062B71F1E8397C1505E1C42C64D11AD1B28FF73F4734", "seq" : 2, "version" : 1 } ],

Impact of Not Upgrading

  • If you operate a rippled server, but do not upgrade to rippled version 0.81.0, then your rippled server may periodically drop transactions and fall out of sync with the network.

  • On Tuesday January 16, 2018, the current validator keys on all five Ripple-operated rippled validator servers will be replaced. If you have been using the recommended default configuration and do not reconfigure your rippled server before that time, then your rippled server will stop seeing validated ledgers.
