- XRP traded at 1.0716 USD at 18:09:01 Berlin time on November 11, 2026, according to Investing.com.
- The XRP Ledger activated fixCleanup3_4_0 on November 4 to prevent certain delegated token-burning accounts from creating issued tokens.

The XRP price was listed at 1.0716 USD at 18:09:01 Berlin time on November 11, 2026, according to Investing.com. The page showed a displayed gain of 1.76 percent, a 24-hour volume of 2.00 billion USD and a market capitalization of 67.87 billion USD. It ranked XRP sixth on the page's cryptocurrency list.
The market snapshot also showed a seven-day change of minus 17.8688 percent and a one-month change of minus 24.0097 percent. XRP's displayed 52-week range was 0.9886 to 2.5247 USD, placing the current quote close to the lower end of that range. These figures describe the listed market data and do not establish a cause for the token's movement.
What the Ledger amendment changed
The relevant network development was completed on November 4, when the XRP Ledger activated the fixCleanup3_4_0 amendment at 14:52 UTC, at ledger 108,112,129. The amendment closed a loophole in the network's permission-delegation system. Under the earlier rules, an account authorized only to destroy an issuer's tokens could, under certain conditions, also create new tokens.
CoinDesk reported that the issue affected assets issued on the ledger, including stablecoins, rather than XRP itself. The report said there were no publicly confirmed cases of exploitation. The fix separates token-burning and token-creation permissions, which is relevant for issuers that delegate redemption or other operational tasks to external accounts.
Investor context for XRP
For investors, the XRP price therefore reflects a market trading below its one-year high while the underlying ledger has addressed a disclosed control weakness. The amendment followed the XRP Ledger's validator process, which requires more than 80 percent support from trusted validators for 14 consecutive days. An earlier activation attempt was interrupted in October, resetting the approval period before the fix ultimately went live.
The amendment also included accounting corrections for planned lending and pooled-asset features, as well as fixes involving automated market-maker token recovery, permissioned trading and transaction signing. Those changes concern network functionality and issued assets; they do not change the fact that the disclosed permission issue did not involve XRP itself.
