In a further batch amendment update shared on X, the XRP Ledger Foundation stated that a fix is underway and is undergoing additional validation before being included in a new XRP software update. It added that it is currently preparing a release to formally deprecate the current batch amendments while reiterating that XRP Ledger stays unaffected and is safe.
With this in place, Vet shares what to expect next in a tweet. A new XRP software update is expected next week, which deprecates the batch amendment. Although there is no expected timeline, Vet outlines logical follow-ups to be a bug report blog post and another XRP software update with a new fixed batch amendment.
Batch amendment bug
As reported, a bug was detected in the batch amendment right before the activation. The batch transaction amendment just had one more vote to go for it to enter majority when the bug was detected.
The proposed batch transactions feature allows atomic execution of multiple transactions and will make it even easier for developers to build apps that can generate revenue directly on-chain. This long-sought-after amendment from the broader community makes it much easier to offer paid features, automate flows and build apps that generate revenue.
A bug was also detected in the fixbatchinnersigs amendment, which fixes an issue where inner transactions of a batch transaction would be flagged as having valid signatures.
XRP Ledger repository key updated
According to a recent notice on the XRPL blog, Ripple has rotated the GPG key used to sign rippled packages. Users are urged to download and trust the new key to prevent issues upgrading in the future as automatic upgrades might not work until they have trusted the new key.
XRP Ledger users should add Ripple’s package-signing GPG key and then verify the fingerprint of the newly added key.

XRP Ledger Questioned for "Centralization"? Ripple CTO Responds, Decentralization Controversy Heats Up Again
February 25 News, the debate over whether XRP Ledger (XRPL) is a centralized blockchain has quickly heated up in the crypto community. Justin Bons, founder and CIO of Cyber Capital, publicly questioned the decentralization of XRPL, arguing that its reliance on the Unique Node List (UNL) mechanism essentially makes it a "permissioned blockchain," deviating from the true permissionless crypto network concept.
Justin Bons pointed out that XRPL validators typically refer to recommended node lists published by a central authority. Deviating from this list could lead to network forks, thereby structurally creating potential governance centralization risks. He also categorized XRPL alongside networks like Stellar, Hedera, and Algorand as "permissioned architectures," emphasizing that blockchains not based on PoW or PoS consensus might be closer to an authority proof model (PoA), making it difficult to achieve full trust minimization.
