Ripple Unveils Simplified Vault and Lending Updates on XRP Ledger

• Ripple simplifies asset management on the XRP Ledger with updates to the Vault and Lending Protocols.
• Meld Gold partners with Ripple to introduce tokenized gold and silver assets on the XRP Ledger.

In a tweet, Ripple has announced significant improvements to its Vault and Lending Protocols, paving the way for more efficient and user-friendly operations on the platform. These modifications are part of a larger goal to improve asset management and lending operations in the XRP Ledger (XRPL) ecosystem, which benefits both developers and users.

Streamlined Asset Management and Lending on the XRP Ledger 

According to the statement, the XLS-65d Single Asset Vault (SAV) has been significantly redesigned, reducing its structure to increase overall efficiency. The revised design removes two previously required transactions, allowing the Vault to store assets directly.

This update is designed to make asset management faster and more cost-effective for users by eliminating unnecessary processes that previously hindered the process.

Meanwhile, the XLS-66d Lending Protocol has been revised to reflect these Vault modifications. Previously, users had to go through many processes to deposit and redeem assets, but the revised protocol eliminates these extra steps completely.

This streamlined approach greatly minimizes friction for users, resulting in a more seamless lending experience inside the XRPL ecosystem.

One of the primary points mentioned by Ripple is its compliance-first strategy. Both the Vault and Lending Protocol improvements are intended to simplify and integrate Clawback and Freezing requirements.

These modifications ensure that the protocol complies with industry rules while also making it easier for users to traverse the platform. By tackling these regulatory concerns square on, Ripple hopes to boost trust in its ecosystem, particularly among institutional users looking for a compliant blockchain solution.

In addition to Ripple’s recent improvements, the XRP Ledger is evolving through collaboration and innovation. According to a prior CNF report, Meld Gold has teamed with Ripple to launch tokenized assets representing gold and silver on the XRPL.

The initial objective is to introduce two stablecoins backed by these precious metals, which will increase the XRP Ledger’s use cases. This move is a huge step forward in integrating real-world assets to the blockchain, giving consumers a concrete connection to gold and silver while remaining inside the XRPL’s decentralized infrastructure.

On the other hand, as we previously noted, Xaman Wallet version 3.0 has added a revenue-sharing model to help XRPL developers and improve the whole ecosystem.

The most recent upgrade includes several important features, including a threshold-based paradigm, universal transaction signing, and increased developer and user accessibility. These upgrades aim to make the XRPL ecosystem more accessible and developer-friendly, fostering innovation and growth.

Meanwhile, as of writing, XRP is trading at $0.6014, down 3.18% over the last 24 hours. This fall has taken XRP’s market cap back under $35 billion.
