XRP Ledger Foundation Expands Global Node Access with Ankr Partnership
The XRP Ledger Foundation has partnered with Ankr to provide free access to the XRPL mainnet and testnet without requiring developers to run their own infrastructure. This partnership will launch globally distributed public XRPL nodes, which span key regions including New York and Singapore, improving network accessibility and reliability.
The expansion of global node access comes ahead of the proposed XRPL v3.3.0 upgrade, which includes features such as zero-knowledge privacy for tokenized assets and atomic settlement. These amendments are designed to support institutional adoption pending validator approval.
