XRP Ledger ‘Clawback’ Goes Live in Boost For Ripple USD Trading

A clawback amendment went live on XRP Ledger earlier Friday following a validator vote with more than 90% in favor.

The amendment means Ripple’s dollar-pegged stablecoin RLUSD, a clawback token, can be floated and exchanged directly on XRP Ledger’s DEX, enhancing its liquidity and trading options and likely boosting decentralized finance (DeFi) activity on the network.

Clawback refers to tokens that have a feature allowing the issuer to reclaim or “claw back” these tokens from users’ wallets under certain conditions. This feature is typically implemented for regulatory compliance, to recover assets in cases of fraud, illegal activities, or when tokens are sent to unintended addresses.

The Friday update will improve the regulatory compliance of XRP Ledger’s Automated Market Maker (AMM) pools, allowing tokens with the clawback enabled to be used. It further modified the “AMMDeposit” transaction type to prevent frozen tokens from being deposited into the AMM.

XRP Ledger features an in-built decentralized exchange (DEX) that allows users to swap tokens with each other. An Automated Market Maker (AMM) on the XRP Ledger uses liquidity pools instead of traditional order books to facilitate trades.

AMM functionality with the amendment XLS-30D in March 2024 and has since processed over $1 billion in swap volumes. January has been heralded as a standout month for the DEX, with over $400 million in trades processed.
