An amendment to the XRP Ledger enabling token-level permissioning is set to activate Wednesday, backed by 33 of 35 trusted validators. The proposal would allow issuers to manage compliance and access controls at the token level, a capability particularly relevant for institutional deployments and real-world asset use cases on the network.
A separate but related proposal aimed at preventing unauthorized token holders remains under independent review and has not yet reached the activation phase. The distinction between these two proposals suggests the protocol is advancing granular permission mechanisms in stages.
The timing and validator support indicate broad consensus on this upgrade, though the parallel review of the unauthorized-holder restriction shows the protocol is weighing distinct governance levers. It remains unclear when or whether the second proposal will move toward activation.
