XRP Ledger Reset Sets Developer Deadline as XRP Price Holds Near 1.00 USD

- The XRP Ledger activated the fixCleanup3_4_0 amendment on November 4 to prevent certain delegated burn permissions from creating issued tokens.
- The disclosed flaw did not affect native XRP, and no exploitation has been publicly reported.
- XRPL Testnet and Devnet are scheduled for a complete reset on November 25, while Mainnet and real XRP balances will remain unaffected.
- FXStreet, republished by TMGM, reported XRP near 1.00 USD amid more than 20 million USD in 24-hour liquidations.
The XRP Ledger is combining a completed security fix with a scheduled infrastructure reset for its developer networks, while market conditions remain weak. On November 4, the network activated the fixCleanup3_4_0 amendment. On November 25, Testnet and Devnet are due to be reset after a full-history server failure. Neither event changes the live XRP Ledger Mainnet or the native XRP supply.
Security fix excludes native XRP
Gadgets 360 reported that fixCleanup3_4_0 became active at 14:52 UTC on November 4 at ledger 108,112,129. The amendment addresses a permission problem involving delegated PaymentBurn transactions. Under the previous rules, a delegate with burn authority could, in certain circumstances, cross a zero-balance boundary and create issued tokens.
The change rejects PaymentBurn payments that cross that boundary. The affected assets include stablecoins, trust-line tokens and Multi-Purpose Tokens issued on the ledger. According to Gadgets 360, the native XRP token was outside the affected permission system and no exploitation had been reported.
Developer networks face reset
The official XRPL announcement, published November 9, says Testnet and Devnet will be reset on Wednesday, November 25. Testnet relied on a single full-history server that crashed and cannot be recovered without a reset. Ripple says it is increasing storage capacity to improve stability.
The reset will delete accounts, transactions, balances, settings, offers, automated market makers, escrows and other ledger data on both development networks. Developers will need to obtain new test XRP and recreate their environments. The announcement states that Mainnet will continue operating as usual, and that the important network URLs, network IDs and validator settings will remain unchanged.
Market pressure keeps support in focus
The market backdrop remains challenging. In a November 13 analysis, FXStreet, republished by TMGM, placed XRP near 1.03 USD and said 24-hour liquidations exceeded 20 million USD, mostly in long positions. The analysis identified 1.00 USD as a key demand area and 1.19 USD as an initial recovery barrier.
For investors, the security amendment is primarily relevant to issued assets and their issuers, while the scheduled reset is a developer-infrastructure matter. The XRP price therefore remains more directly exposed to market liquidity and derivatives positioning than to the Testnet and Devnet maintenance.
