litecoin VS rippled

Open Source Litecoin is fully decentralized in the fact any one person could submit code into the network and as long as a majority of miners agree to that fork it will be implimented. This is similar to bitcoin.

Progress continues with the integration of Litecoin code changes into the v24 Bitcoin codebase. The month of May saw a major milestone with the resolution of all remaining functional tests for the pre-MWEB merge task. The code has been submitted for review here.

git clone https://github.com/litecoin-project/litecoin.git

"If upgrading to 0.21.2 after MWEB has activated, you must resync to download MWEB blocks." https://github.com/litecoin-project/litecoin/releases

I tried following this tutorial: https://github.com/litecoin-project/litecoin/blob/master/doc/build-osx.md

However, this serialization format seems to contradict with BIP 0144, which states: "if the witness is empty, the old serialization format must be used." also contradict the comments in the litecoin source code at https://github.com/litecoin-project/litecoin/blob/master/src/primitives/transaction.h

In order to add MWEB support to PSBTs, I first had to merge in PSBTv2 (BIP-0370), which can be seen here. I then defined the MWEB fields we needed to add, and added them to the PSBT data structures along with serialization and deserialization here.

A pull request has also been submitted for downloading and verifying HogEx transactions, MWEB headers, and the UTXO leafset bitmap. This covers steps 2 and 3 of the light client sync process.

The bug occurred when a multi-path payment interacted with an AMM synthetic offer, and the synthetic offer required to fulfill the payment exceeded the AMM pool size. In this case, the payment engine attempted to use the single-path strategy to back-out the maximum liquidity available to swap against the pool. Although this condition was properly detected, there was an error on how the payment engine resized the synthetic offer to consume liquidity only up to the AMM size. Instead of using the actual swap rate, which represents the cost of fully swapping one side of an AMM pool, the new synthetic offer’s exchange rate was incorrectly set to the spot exchange rate of the AMM (that is, the rate it takes to execute an infinitesimally sized order). Consequently, an AMM operation that should have been expensive became relatively cheap, effectively violating the constant-product invariant of the pool. In this state, another user could deposit funds into the drained side of the pool, generating a large number of LP tokens and taking ownership of the pool. Now that the fix amendment is active, the team has opened a PR with a unit test demonstrating this behavior.

It’s good news for the builders who have been working round the clock. Tools such as AI chatbots will enable developers to quickly receive answers to their queries, speeding up the process from concept to application. AI Chatbots have already become a part of RippleX’s commitment to making blockchain development on the XRP Ledger more accessible and less time-consuming, especially for those new to the field. This approach will not only foster increased innovation on blockchains but could also enhance financial inclusion, making tools more accessible globally.

Currently Rippled 2.0.0 is scheduled to release December 18th, 2023: https://github.com/XRPLF/rippled/milestone/8

The XRPL Accelerator, a program dedicated to nurturing innovation and development on the XRP Ledger, is back with its second cohort of groundbreaking projects. After the success of the inaugural cohort, the Accelerator continues to support entrepreneurs and builders looking to scale their projects on the XRP Ledger.

The third annual Apex Developer Summit was the biggest yet. Held in collaboration with the XRP Ledger Foundation, this event brought together an impressive gathering of over 400 blockchain developers, validators, and XRPL community members in the heart of Amsterdam at the Leonardo Royal Hotel.

As developers and contributors to the decentralized, open-source XRP Ledger (XRPL), the RippleX engineering team is excited to announce a major breakthrough in the XRPL ecosystem that will revolutionize the way developers build decentralized applications (dApps).
