Ripple filed a 20-page letter on October 20

Ripple submitted a comment letter on October 20, 2026, supporting the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission's proposed Regulation Crypto Assets framework, according to Crypto.news. The proposal addresses how investment contracts involving digital assets could be treated under federal securities law. Ripple argued that an investment contract should not automatically make the associated token a security. The company also asked for clarity on when issuer obligations end and how secondary-market transactions should be treated. Ripple Chief Legal Officer Stuart Alderoty said the company's legal fight with the SEC had cost more than 150 million USD. The figure describes legal costs rather than a civil penalty.

Validator support reached 31 of 35

The XRP Ledger's Cleanup3_4_0 bug fix is scheduled for activation on November 4, 2026, after validator support temporarily fell to 26 validators, according to SC World. The amendment requires more than 80 percent support from 35 trusted validators for 14 consecutive days, which means at least 29 validators must maintain their votes. Support later recovered to 31 validators. The update addresses technical issues involving token handling, asset vault accounting and lending code. The lending protocol itself requires separate validator approval. Separately, the 1.84 million USD weekly ETF outflow ended a 13-week sequence of positive weekly flows, according to Yahoo Finance.
