Ripple engineering director says XRP Ledger speed work is planned for 2027
Ripple's director of engineering said the company has big plans for performance improvements on the XRP Ledger in 2027. Critics had set the ledger's roughly 1,500 transactions per second against the load Visa handles in a day. U.Today said a batch of ledger fixes went live on 4 November.

XRP Ledger developers propose a fix for rounding in loan repayments
A proposed change to the XRP Ledger's lending code makes each on-time loan payment bring the amount owed down to its scheduled value. After an overpayment, the amount owed resets to the schedule of the new payment. It would arrive in an amendment called LendingProtocolV1_2, which needs 80% of validators to agree for two weeks in a row, and no vote has been announced.
Nothing changes for holders today, but lenders and borrowers on the ledger would get loan balances that follow the schedule.
