ZachXBT Criticizes XRPL Bug Bounty as Too Low: Only $250K Reward Could Weaken White Hat Hackers' Willingness to Report Vulnerabilities

Odaily Report: On-chain detective ZachXBT retweeted the XRP Ledger Foundation's explanation regarding a previous critical security vulnerability and criticized its bug bounty mechanism.ZachXBT stated that XRPL, which holds billions of dollars in assets, only paid a $250,000 reward to the white hat hacker who discovered the critical vulnerability. He believes that this level of reward could weaken security researchers' incentive to proactively report vulnerabilities, and may even encourage attackers to exploit vulnerabilities for massive gains rather than responsibly disclosing the issue.Previously, the XRP Ledger Foundation confirmed that the vulnerability could theoretically bypass the XRP total supply limit, but no additional XRP was found to have been created as a result, and the vulnerability has been fixed through version 3.4.1.

FSB: Cross-Border Stablecoin Regulation and Crisis Management Mechanisms Still Immature, Warns of AI Cybersecurity Threats

Odaily News: The Financial Stability Board (FSB) has stated that cross-border stablecoin regulation and crisis management mechanisms remain immature or have yet to be established. FSB Chair Andrew Bailey noted that its 2025 review shows that only 11 out of the 28 jurisdictions surveyed have completed building stablecoin regulatory frameworks.The FSB warned that stablecoin runs could transmit to traditional financial markets through forced sales of reserve assets and bank deposit withdrawals. For multi-issuer stablecoins, redemption demands could concentrate on a single issuer, while reserve assets are distributed across different jurisdictions — a similar risk that European Central Bank (ECB) President Christine Lagarde had previously flagged.The FSB has finalized practices for the responsible adoption of AI in the financial sector, covering organizational governance, AI development and deployment, cybersecurity, and third-party service risks. Andrew Bailey stated that AI-driven sophisticated cyberattacks could undermine the resilience of critical financial institutions and market infrastructure. The FSB has submitted related correspondence to the G20 Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors meeting. (Cointelegraph)

XRP Ledger Foundation: Confirms No New XRP Created, Critical Vulnerability Fixed

Odaily News: The XRP Ledger Foundation posted on the X platform to clarify the recent XRP Ledger security vulnerability incident, stating that the vulnerability could potentially have been used to bypass the limit that fixes XRP's total supply at 100 billion, but it was fixed two weeks ago via version 3.4.1. Furthermore, upon verification, no new XRP was found to have been created, and the total amount of XRP currently circulating on the ledger is approximately 99.986 billion.The Foundation stated that the vulnerability would have required hundreds of deliberately constructed operations to trigger, and normal payment transactions would almost never involve it. In the future, it will strengthen formal verification, AI adversarial testing, security research collaboration, and bug bounty programs with RippleX and the community. Regarding the fix process, the Foundation explained that publicly releasing a patch could allow attackers to use AI to accelerate vulnerability analysis. To address this situation, the XRPL community engaged in coordination. Participating parties including the XRP Ledger Foundation, RippleX, core developers, and validators reached a social consensus and agreed to adopt the approach of directly releasing the fix. In addition, version 3.4.1 only became a version the network was required to adopt after going through the normal amendment voting process and receiving support from more than 80% of validators for two consecutive weeks. Protocol changes still need to be completed through the amendment mechanism.Previously, RippleX engineering lead J. Ayo Akinyele also posted on the X platform, stating that he attaches great importance to the recently disclosed critical vulnerability in the XRP Ledger (XRPL) payment engine. This vulnerability is a serious security issue that has existed in the codebase for more than 10 years and could theoretically lead to the over-creation of XRP, breaking through the fixed supply cap. However, before the vulnerability could be exploited, it was discovered by the security research firm Veria AI through Ripple's bug bounty program.
