As highlighted in a previous report, the update to the native XRP Ledger wallet will bring XLS-20 support that is native NFT functionality.
The latest update comes as XRPL and Xumm-related development activity has picked up in the past year. As reported less than two weeks ago, Wind shared a chart showing 811 weekly downloads compared to a previous 99.
Notably, developers are working on several projects, including:
- Adding more providers to the so-called “Buy & Sell XRP” App, an embedded app on the Xumm wallet that will allow users to buy XRP for fiat choosing from different providers
- An opt-in profiles feature, currently available for Xumm Pro beta users, similar to the Ethereum Name Service (ENS), with protections against impersonation
- A Xumm QR payments feature to facilitate crypto payments at retail stores.
- XLS-34d to leverage negotiable payment methods available on the XRPL previously restricted to XRP for other issued tokens.
- XLS-35d to introduce lightweight NFTs to the XRPL.
- A Hooks sidechain with XRP as the native currency to showcase Hooks smart contract capabilities before it goes live on the XRPL
All of these come as the XRPL reached a unique milestone yesterday, closing Ledger 77,777,777, as disclosed by Dr. J. Scott Branson, an advisor at the XRPL Foundation and a network validator. It is a testament to the network’s continued existence after nearly 11 years.

The #XRPLedger just closed ledger number 77,777,777!
It’s an honor our widely trusted Cabbit Tech validator played a part in validating that (and so many other) ledger!
Here’s to the next 77 million ledgers ?
