Over three weeks ago, the Ripple team launched a new software update for the XRP Ledger (XRPL). Although the infrastructure upgrade (v3.2.0) has been running for close to a month now, not all of the network’s validator nodes have adopted it. In fact, more than half of the nodes are still running on the old version (v3.1.3) and are yet to come on board.
Data from XRPScan shows that only 43%, accounting for 357 out of 828 nodes, have upgraded to v3.2.0. On the other hand, 51%, that is 426 of the nodes, are still running on v3.1.3.
The latest infrastructure upgrade introduces several new features to the XRPL. One of them is the rebranding of the core server software from rippled to xrpld. The update also optimizes institutional usage by significantly reducing operating costs and implementing 30% to 40% lower memory usage across network nodes.
Additionally, v3.2.0 improves security, developer experience, and network efficiency, adding another confidence layer for builders. These features will add to the bug fixes and improvements to permissioned domains and vaults implemented during the v3.1.3 maintenance rollout in late May.
It is worth mentioning that despite the majority of nodes still operating on v3.1.3, roughly 61% of XRPL validators running on rippled versions have adopted the new upgrade. Also, 89% of the Unique Node List (UNL), which is the ledger’s trusted set of validators, are currently running on the software.
The XRPL needs 80% of the UNL to activate any network upgrades. With 31 out of 35 UNL validators having cleared the threshold, the network treats v3.2.0 as sufficiently updated. So, it is only a matter of time before other nodes jump on the bandwagon.
In the meantime, the XRPL is trying to approve and implement security fixes associated with v3.2.0. The fixes, bundled in an amendment titled fixCleanup3_2_0, are yet to be approved, as it is still under voting on the XRPL.
The XRPL needs 28 out of 35 UNL votes to cross the threshold and approve the amendment; however, the network has gotten 17 so far. This means only 48.57% of trusted validators have voted so far.
If approved, fixCleanup3_2_0 will deploy fixes for single-asset vaults, lending protocol, multi-purpose tokens, permissioned domains, and permissioned decentralized exchanges.

小靓分析：
🦊 小靓解读
XRPL 升级 v3.2.0 已发布近一个月，但仅 43% 的节点完成更新，超半数仍停留在旧版，网络升级进度偏慢，短期可能影响新功能的实际落地效率。
📊 市场影响
升级推迟不会直接冲击 XRP 价格，但机构优化功能（如成本降低）未能快速生效，可能削弱短期叙事炒作动力。当前 XRP 在 $0.47 附近震荡，缺乏强催化剂。
💡 操作建议
建议观望为主，等待节点升级率突破 70% 后再评估是否布局。若后续加速升级，可关注 $0.50 阻力位突破机会，否则维持低仓位应对横盘风险。
