XRPL Lending Protocol Clears Major Hurdle in Security Audit

XRP's native lending protocol has cleared a major hurdle after passing a security re-audit with flying colors. Halborn, the company that reviewed the code, found no critical or high-risk issues.

The two key amendments, XLS-65 and XLS-66, are designed to integrate lending and savings features directly into the XRP Ledger, eliminating the need for external smart contracts.

Validators still need to vote in the upgrades before they can go live. However, with this audit out of the way, the conversation has shifted from 'is it secure?' to 'when do we flip the switch?'

If approved, these amendments would supercharge XRPL with on-chain lending markets and yield tools, making it a full-fledged DeFi contender.
