Ripple CTO David Schwartz addressed concerns about the XRP Ledger's frequent technical hard forks, explaining they are necessary due to the ledger's unique design and use of smart transactors. The network is currently updating to version 3.1.3, with a deadline in nine days after which nodes not updated will be disconnected. Schwartz emphasized that consensus depends on the Unique Node List (UNL), not just validator majority, and warned that a network split could lead to competing ledgers and UNLs. This update highlights the ongoing evolution and governance challenges within the XRPL ecosystem.
