- Add the LendingProtocol amendment
- Add Loan Broker and Loan ledger objects:
- Also add new SFields, Keylet functions, and an Invariant to verify no
illegal field modification
- Update list of "constant" fields from spec
- Also add a general check for all object types for the type and index
fields
- refactor: Check transaction flags in preflight0
- Adds a flagMask parameter to preflight1 so that it's impossible to
forget to check flags.
- Also adds a short hash prefix to all Transactor log messages.
- refactor: Generalize Transactor preflight:
- Derived classes no longer need to explicitly check amendments, nor
call into preflight1 or preflight2.
- implemeng LoanBrokerSet
- Transactions: LoanDelete, LoanManage, LoanDraw, LoanPay
- LoanBrokerSet creation mostly done. Need update.
- Also added a lookup table for pseudo account fields.
- Update changed field name.
- Modify modifiable fields in an update. Note there are only two.
- Add a node field to dirLink, defaulting sfOwnerNode, so other
relationships can be updated.
- Create some helper classes for transaction fields
- Test that they work by converting some of the existing classes
- Finish creating helper classes for JTx fields
- Also change the pseudo account field lookup to a function that uses
a switch
- Update tests, update pseudo-account checking
- Generalize some of the Invariant checks using macro files
- Valid ledger entry type
- Valid new account root and pseudo account check
- Enumerate transaction privileges for invariants
- Allows them to be defined in transactions.macro instead of needing to
scrutinize every existing Invariant class.
- List is not necessarily comprehensive, but does cover every check
where more than one transaction type is involved.
- Reserve a few values between Vault and Lending for future use
- Pseudo-account improvements
- Define pseudo-account fields with an sfield flag
- Pseudo-account invariant checks rules whenever a pseudo-account is
created or modified.
- Move some helper functions.
- Check the regular key in the pseudo-transaction invariant check.
- Transactor::checkSign will always fail for a pseudo-account, so even
if someone figures out how to get a good signature, it won't work.
- Fix account creation to check both amendments
- Add a validity range for sfDebtMaximum
- Change more "failed" messages. The goal here is to be able to search
the log for "failed" and ONLY get test failures.
- NoModifiedUnmodifiableFields and ValidPseudoAccounts
- Move the Invariants_test class into the test namespace
- Clang wants an explicit ctor to emplace in a vector
- Refactor: Add a Transactor base function to make it easier to get the
owner reserve increment as a fee.
- Refactor: Add an overload jtx::fee(increment) to pay an owner reserve.
- Initial implementation of LoanBrokerDelete
- Generalize the LoanBroker lifecycle test
- Refactor ApplyView::dirAdd to give access to low-level operations
- Takes a page from #5362, which may turn out to be useful!
- Start writing Loan Broker invariants and tests
- Specifically those mentioned for LoanBrokerDelete
- Move all detail namespaces to be under ripple
- Avoids problems with namespace collisions / ambiguous symbol issues
with unity builds, especially when adding or removing files.
- Add LoanBrokerCoverDeposit transaction
- Add LoanBrokerCoverWithdraw transaction
- Start writing tests for LoanBrokerCover*
- Add support for `Asset` and `MPTIssue` to some `jtx` helper classes
and functions (`balance`, `expectLine`)
- Add support for pseudo-accounts to `jtx::Account` by allowing directly
setting the AccountID without a matching key.
- Add Asset and MPTIssue support to more jtx objects / functions
- Unfortunately, to work around some ambiguous symbol compilation
errors, I had to change the implicit conversion from IOU to Asset to
a conversion from IOU to PrettyAsset, and add a more explicit
`asset()` function. This workaround only required changing two
existing tests, so seems acceptable.
- Ensure that an account is not deleted with an XRP balance
- Updates the AccountRootsDeletedClean invariant
- Finish up the Loan Broker tests
- Move inclusion of Transactor headers to transactions.macro
- Only need to update in one place when adding a new transaction.
- Start implementing LoanSet transactor
- Add some more values and functions to make it easier to work with
basis point values / bips.
- Fix several earlier mistakes.
- Generalize the check*Sign functions to support CounterParty
- checkSign, checkSingleSign, and checkMultiSign in STTx and Transactor
- Start writing Loan tests
- Required adding support for counterparty signature to jtx framework:
arbitrary signature field destination, multiple signer callbacks
- Get Counterparty signing working
- Add more LoanSet unit tests, added LoanBroker LoanSequence field
- LoanSequence will prevent loan key collisions
- Change Loan object indexing, fix several broken LoanSet unit tests
- Loan objects will now only be indexed by LoanBrokerID and
LoanSequence, which is a new field in LoanBroker. Also changes
Loan.Sequence to Loan.LoanSequence to match up.
- Several tests weren't working because of `PrettyAsset` scaling. Also,
`PrettyAsset` calculations could overflow. Made that less likely by
changing the type of `scale_`.
- LoanSet will fail if an account tries to loan to itself.
- Ensure that an account is not deleted with a non-zero owner count
- Updates the AccountRootsDeletedClean invariant
- Add unit tests to create a Loan successfully
- Fix a few field initializations in LoanSet
- Refactor issuance validity check in VaultCreate
- Utility function: canAddHolding
- Call canAddHolding from any transactor that call addEmptyHolding
(LoanBrokerSet, LoanSet)
- Start implementing LoanManage transaction
- Also add a ValidLoan invariant
- Finish `LoanManage` functionality and tests, modulo LoanDraw/Pay
- Allow existing trust lines to loan brokers to be managed (by issuer)
- Implement LoanDelete, and fix a bunch of math errors in LoanManage
- Update to match latest spec: compute interest, LoanBroker reserves
- refactor: Define getFlagsMask in the base Transactor class
- Returns tfUniversalMask for most transactors
- Only transactors that use other flags need to override
- Implement LoanDraw, and made good progress on related tests
- Start implementing LoanPay transaction
- Implement LoanPay
- Also add an XRPL_ASSERT2, which splits the parts of the assert message
so I don't have to remember the proper formatting.
The XRP Ledger
The XRP Ledger is a decentralized cryptographic ledger powered by a network of peer-to-peer nodes. The XRP Ledger uses a novel Byzantine Fault Tolerant consensus algorithm to settle and record transactions in a secure distributed database without a central operator.
XRP
XRP is a public, counterparty-free asset native to the XRP Ledger, and is designed to bridge the many different currencies in use worldwide. XRP is traded on the open-market and is available for anyone to access. The XRP Ledger was created in 2012 with a finite supply of 100 billion units of XRP.
rippled
The server software that powers the XRP Ledger is called rippled and is available in this repository under the permissive ISC open-source license. The rippled server software is written primarily in C++ and runs on a variety of platforms. The rippled server software can run in several modes depending on its configuration.
If you are interested in running an API Server (including a Full History Server), take a look at Clio. (rippled Reporting Mode has been replaced by Clio.)

Key Features of the XRP Ledger
- Censorship-Resistant Transaction Processing: No single party decides which transactions succeed or fail, and no one can "roll back" a transaction after it completes. As long as those who choose to participate in the network keep it healthy, they can settle transactions in seconds.
- Fast, Efficient Consensus Algorithm: The XRP Ledger's consensus algorithm settles transactions in 4 to 5 seconds, processing at a throughput of up to 1500 transactions per second. These properties put XRP at least an order of magnitude ahead of other top digital assets.
- Finite XRP Supply: When the XRP Ledger began, 100 billion XRP were created, and no more XRP will ever be created. The available supply of XRP decreases slowly over time as small amounts are destroyed to pay transaction costs.
- Responsible Software Governance: A team of full-time, world-class developers at Ripple maintain and continually improve the XRP Ledger's underlying software with contributions from the open-source community. Ripple acts as a steward for the technology and an advocate for its interests, and builds constructive relationships with governments and financial institutions worldwide.
- Secure, Adaptable Cryptography: The XRP Ledger relies on industry standard digital signature systems like ECDSA (the same scheme used by Bitcoin) but also supports modern, efficient algorithms like Ed25519. The extensible nature of the XRP Ledger's software makes it possible to add and disable algorithms as the state of the art in cryptography advances.
- Modern Features for Smart Contracts: Features like Escrow, Checks, and Payment Channels support cutting-edge financial applications including the Interledger Protocol. This toolbox of advanced features comes with safety features like a process for amending the network and separate checks against invariant constraints.
- On-Ledger Decentralized Exchange: In addition to all the features that make XRP useful on its own, the XRP Ledger also has a fully-functional accounting system for tracking and trading obligations denominated in any way users want, and an exchange built into the protocol. The XRP Ledger can settle long, cross-currency payment paths and exchanges of multiple currencies in atomic transactions, bridging gaps of trust with XRP.
Source Code
Here are some good places to start learning the source code:
- Read the markdown files in the source tree:
src/ripple/**/*.md. - Read the levelization document to get an idea of the internal dependency graph.
- In the big picture, the
mainfunction constructs anApplicationImpobject, which implements theApplicationvirtual interface. Almost every component in the application takes anApplication¶meter in its constructor, typically namedappand stored as a member variableapp_. This allows most components to depend on any other component.
