Ripple new version of XRP Ledger 1.2.0 launched
|- XRP Ledger requested to update the code before February 27.
- XRP Ledger 1.2.0 is more resistance to censorship.
The San-Francisco-based blockchain company Ripple is reported to have released a new version of its renowned XRP ledger 1.2.0. The new version is designed to improve user experience as well expand the range of services it is offering.
The users of the ledger are requested to update to the latest version before February 27, 2019. The upgrade is vital because without it, the server won’t be able to determine the authenticity of the ledger and in return transactions will not be processed neither will they be submitted.
What has changed?
The new version according to the team at Ripple, is more resistance to censorship. This means that the transaction being processed cannot be determined by any single entity. Moreover, the transaction will remain immutable after entering the ledger. While the previous version was resistance to censorship, the team claims that this version greatly improves the feature. Warnings will be issued if there are attempts to interrupt the working of the ledger.
Furthermore, the upgrade has integrated what is commonly referred to as MultiSignReserve amendment. Ripple has now made it easier who take part in signing transactions while reserving only 5 XRP. Other updates included bug fixing and removal of errors on two transactions.
The company has also launched a bounty program. Developers have been requested to review all the updates in the new version and communicate to the company in the event any vulnerabilities are detected.
