Home/News Feed/XRP Ledger nodes handle 1.7M daily developer requests with free access via Ankr since August rollout. The XRP Ledger Foundation reported that its Ankr-powered nodes now process over 1.7 million developer requests daily, offering free access to both mainnet and testnet without registration or API keys. Launched in August, the infrastructure supports various functions like balance checks and transaction simulations, though public access has rate limits and retains about two weeks of ledger history. Meanwhile, Ankr's Ethereum bridge was exploited on Nov. 9, resulting in unauthorized withdrawals worth over $300,000, but the XRPL nodes remain unaffected. The foundation continues to develop new features like lending tools, pending validator approval.
