XRP Ledger Amendments Diverge in Trust and Adoption

The XRP Ledger has two rebuilt amendments, Permission Delegation and Batch, which were both pulled after critical bugs were discovered. Permission Delegation allows an account to hand off narrow jobs without giving up its keys, while Batch lets up to eight transactions from different accounts execute as one atomic unit.

Permission Delegation has 31% validator support (11 of 35), up from 20% on August 21, while Batch has 68.57% (24 of 35) validator support, more than double Permission Delegation's total. Both amendments need over 80% support to activate.

A second clean audit was supposed to be Permission Delegation's answer to its history, but it hasn't been enough to catch up with Batch. A validator who reviewed the fix says Cantina's follow-up review of Permission Delegation turned up nine issues, two of them rated high risk, and that all were resolved in a build that has since run through over 5,000 tests without a new issue turning up.
