Amounts of XRP are represented as strings. (JSON integers are limited to 32 bits, so integer overflows are possible.) XRP is formally specified in "drops", which are equivalent to 0.000001 (one 1-millionth) of an XRP each. Thus, to represent 1.0 XRP in a JSON document, you would write `"1000000"`.

**Do not specify XRP as an object.**
Unit tests are permitted to submit values of XRP (not drops) with a decimal point - for example, "1.23" meaning 1.23 XRP. All other cases should always specify XRP in drops, with no decimal point: e.g. "1230000" meaning 1.23 XRP.
