The XRP Ledger's lending protocol is receiving an update to fix how loan repayments are rounded, ensuring the balance after each payment matches the schedule more precisely. The change, detailed in a Github pull request, adjusts calculations so that the total outstanding value resets correctly after overpayments, and payments are rounded consistently. This fix has minimal impact on current users, with older loans retaining their rounding differences unless overpaid. The amendment requires 80% validator approval over two weeks before activation, with no set timeline yet.
