The XRP Ledger reaches agreement without mining.
It uses its own consensus protocol: a new ledger version is confirmed only when a supermajority of trusted validators, at least 80%, agree.
The result: settlement in seconds. It is one of the reasons Yellow Onchain is built here.

The XAH/EVR and XAH/XXX pools are now blackholed, joining XAH/RVN. No master key. No regular key. No signer list. The hooks are the only thing that will ever move the funds. If your using the LPs on #Xahau you can rest assured NOBODY has any custody over your postion!
The audit road here, the escape hatch, and what gets blackholed next:

Every Labor MP deserves to lose their seat in Victoria. Put Labor last on preferences. Don’tbe conned by Greens or Teals how to vote cards, they both will enable Labor’s further destruction of Victoria. Any candidate who doesn’t want Labor last, doesn’t deserve your vote.
The CFMEU is who governs Labor not the other way around. The below are quotes from those that had to work with the state government and the unions.
The document also detailed how the
CFMEU played a "critical role" in the state election, both "organisationally and financially".
"It is worth noting the significance of the CFMEU's relationship with the Andrews government in Victoria and the impact this is having and will have in the future with respect to client relationships with the Victorian government," the memo said.

Almost all stablecoins today are digital dollars.
37 European banks have teamed up to launch one together. Each bank needs somewhere safe to hold it and that's what @Ripple is building.
The euro is finally catching up.

We are launching the XRP Ledger Education Month.
XRP and the XRP Ledger have a lot of use cases and functionalities. This is the best time to double down on education.
I believe contributing to education and the community is building, just like contributing via code. We want to actively support those builders.

With Bitcoin back at the 200-day and 300-day moving average, this is good enough for me for my cyclical accumulation.
I'm now fully entered into crypto for the cycle. Wish me luck. 🤞

This was me 3 years at COP28 in Dubai where 25 countries signed a global pledge to triple nuclear energy by 2050.
39 have now signed it including the US, China, Canada and UK, representing over 70% of global GDP.
Australia's Energy Minister Chris Bowen is President of Negotiations for COP31 which starts today in Turkey.
We have the most uranium in the world, meaning we're critical to global nuclear energy expansion plans.
Even if we still ban nuclear at home, if Australia supports other countries decarbonising with nuclear why don't we sign the pledge?

Shill your XRP and XRPL projects here in this thread. It is also fine to shill non-XRP(L) crypto projects or even non-crypto projects. Share what you're interested in. Here's the place for it.
Obviously not here to insult or condemn, and that is not acceptable, but how do we bring a new project to your attention?
Being one of the fathers of the XRPL it’s natural people will be excited to tell you what they are developing.
Maybe a post once a week to invite those new to the ecosystem to say hello? 👋👋👋👋

The anti-crypto Democrats have been blocking this bill every step of the way for over a year, since the House passed it on July 17, 2025. The Senate received the bill and referred it to the Banking Committee on September 18, 2025, and that is when deliberations began.
From that point, they demanded stronger consumer protections, tighter illicit-finance rules, limits on stablecoin yields, and less federal preemption of state authority. Those were the opening asks. Republicans incorporated a long list of them as negotiations dragged on through 2025 and into 2026.
The demands kept shifting. Later they focused on ethics restrictions for officials’ crypto holdings. They specifically wanted state attorneys general to have their own enforcement power instead of leaving it only to the U.S. Attorney General and the Justice Department. Trump and Republicans agreed to about 80% of the Tillis-Gallego ethics proposal, including divestiture or a blind trust, and put state AGs in the loop. Still not good enough.
By the final text in September 2026, Senators Cynthia Lummis, Tim Scott, and John Boozman said they had taken in more than 100 other Democratic-requested changes. Democrats still voted no on advancing the bill. Every single one.
They were never going to pass it.
Sens. Ruben Gallego (D-AZ) and Elissa Slotkin (D-MI) each received roughly $10 million in support from the crypto super PAC Fairshake (and affiliated groups) during their 2024 campaigns. No other Democratic senator received a comparable amount at that level. Other so-called pro-crypto Democrats who took industry support or helped negotiate the bill, including Sens. Angela Alsobrooks, Kirsten Gillibrand, and Mark Warner, still voted no along with every other Senate Democrat.
This failure belongs entirely to the Democrats, not to Brian Armstrong (@brian_armstrong), the crypto industry, or the Republicans.
🚨NEW: Former House Financial Services Chair @PatrickMcHenry just delivered blistering criticism of the crypto industry on @BloombergTV for squandering its best opportunity to pass market structure legislation this year:
“Frankly, you had a crypto coalition that blew it. They had an opportunity to legislate, and they were holding out for something that was unattainable, a perfect piece of legislation. And rather than take something that was good, many of them held out for perfection, and now have ended up with nothing legislatively.”

@australianlabor gave the Australian Council of Trade Unions 11.65 million taxpayer dollars in 24/25, who then spent 5.5 million dollars campaigning for Labor to be reelected in 2025. Did Fortescue mining billionaire Twiggy Forest spend to get Labor reelected? His tax free charity Mindaloo don’t list where their 250 million 24/25 donations went. The ATO don’t require they be disclosed. The Federal Government give Mindaroo tens of millions in contracts and the Government gave Fortescue 100 million plus for failed Renewable energy projects. Why is Oz media only interested in Gina?
Worth a read….

Once again Labor is treating taxpayers’ money as its own and spending it to serve its own political ends.
They have splashed MORE money on news organisations in another round of grant funding. This time under the “News Innovation Fund”.
We saw it with multicultural grants and invitation-only sports and community grants.
Now it is subsidising the newsrooms meant to hold it to account, under rules that shut out media outlets the government thinks will criticise it.
Like this government’s whole approach to grants, it stinks.

Elon Musk: "Even if I'm criticized by the whole world, I won't let go of X." The reason makes you think.
Reporter: "Why are you so attached to X?"
Elon: "What do you mean by that?"
Reporter: "Since the acquisition, it's been nothing but criticism, right?"
Elon: "That's true."
Reporter: "Politicians criticize you too."
Elon: "Yes."
Reporter: "There are conflicts with regulatory authorities."
Elon: "That's true."
Reporter: "Honestly, wouldn't it be easier to sell it?"

Reporter: "There are wrong opinions too."
Elon: "That's true."
Reporter: "So, shouldn't there be restrictions?"

Introducing Accord…
My latest contribution to the XRPL ecosystem!
It never stops shocking me how often we see people lose their crypto.
Everyone thinks they’re bulletproof. Until they’re not.
And here’s the thing…
It doesn’t matter whether you’re using a hot wallet or a cold wallet. If everything depends on a single key, that key is still a single point of failure.
For long-term XRP holders, multisig should be a no-brainer.
And for projects I genuinely believe multisig should be the expectation, not the exception. It’s about security, accountability and giving your community confidence.
And for enterprise this is the tool they didn’t know they needed.
That’s why I built Accord.
XRPL multisignature made simple.
Designed for everyone, from individuals wanting to protect their long-term holdings to projects and enterprises needing more sophisticated account security and signing workflows.
Today I’m launching the Accord waitlist, and opening up the platform for FREE public testing on XRPL Testnet.
I want you to try it. Put it through its paces. Tell me what works, what doesn’t, and what you’d like to see.
Your feedback will help shape the mainnet release.
accordxrpl.com
One key shouldn’t be all that stands between you and losing everything.

Hi @YouTubeCreators @YouTube
Good Evening Crypto has been a fantastic channel for keeping the crypto community informed and getting important news out there.

Thank you! 🙏

Rennick is exactly right here.
Anthony Albanese has cut off working holiday visas from the UK and EU, cultures very similar to our own, who GO HOME after their working holidays and are excellent visitors - and calls it reducing migrants (they’re not migrants)
All whilst ramping up student and parental visas from the subcontinent (who mostly visa hop till they get residency)
Albanese is a RACIST anti-Australian who hates western cultures.
TOURISTS ARE NOT MIGRANTS
Anthony Albanese has yet again shown why he is unfit to be Prime Minister.
In order to reduce immigration he is going after working holiday visas holders.
While these young people do work, they are actually tourists not immigrants.
Yes they do work but in jobs that help sustain two of our vital industries - Agriculture and Tourism.
While I would accept employment being restricted to rural areas there is no need to reduce tourists to Australia.
Australia also benefits from reciprocal agreements with other countries regarding backpacking.
As a former backpacker myself I can attest to the experience and personal development backpacking offers.
People First won’t cut back on working holiday visas.
Instead we will cut back on student, bridging and the Indian Migration and Mobility agreement.

“The Albanese government's planned cuts to backpacker visas risks damaging Australia's
"hard built" reputation as one of the world's great destinations for working holidaymakers, the chief executive of the nation's peak tourism and transport body says.
Tourism and Transport Forum chief executive Margy Osmond said the federal government's proposed cuts, which would cap second-year backpacker visas at 45,000 and slash the number of third-year places from 31,000 to just 5000, risked tarnishing Australia's appeal as a destination for working holidaymakers.
Struggling tourism organisations have warned the government's proposed cuts will starve them of workers and rip millions of dollars from regional economies. The changes also have prompted fierce criticism from West Australian Premier Roger Cook, who in a letter to Home Affairs Minister Tony Burke said the new rules would hurt his state's regional tourism and hospitality sector.”

Back when they printed ban knotes for the first time, counterfeiting was rampant. Vault theft were on the rise.
Then credit cards were invented and card fraud went rampant.
Now, crypto is going mainstream and hacking is rampant.
That is what happens when you introduce a new form of value into society.
It takes time to refine and improve, build safeguards, enforce compliances, licensing. Then it becomes robust.
