Ripple News: A Hidden XRPL Bug Could Have Printed 18T XRP

In the latest Ripple news, the XRP Ledger Foundation and RippleX disclosed a payment-engine vulnerability that could theoretically have created approximately 18 trillion spendable XRP in one transaction, far exceeding the ledger’s intended 100 billion XRP supply . The disclosure says there was no evidence that the flaw was exploited on a public network or that unauthorized XRP was created; it was fixed in xrpld 3.4.1. --> This was a supply-integrity risk, not a confirmed supply breach.
