XRP Ledger’s new upgrade is here. But not everyone’s on board yet
The new software leads among the network’s validators, yet by node count it sits behind the older v3.1.3, and the security amendment bundled with it remains a separate, slower vote. The upgrade needs 80% of the trusted validator list to activate.

Summary
- The XRP Ledger’s new v3.2.0 server software, intended to cut operating costs and improve stability for institutional users, is gaining traction but still trails the older v3.1.3 across the broader network.
- Despite slower overall node adoption, about 89% of validators on the default Unique Node List have upgraded to v3.2.0, surpassing the 80% threshold needed for network upgrades to take effect.
- A separate on-ledger amendment, fixCleanup3_2_0, which packages key security fixes and improvements for newer features such as lending, vaults and multi-purpose tokens, is polling well below software adoption.
