XRP Ledger v3.1.3 Released — Node Upgrades Required; ONDO Token Surges After Treasury Pilot; Foundation Announces Core Leadership and Public Coordination Push

The XRP Ledger Foundation released rippled v3.1.3 which includes a single default-yes 'fix' amendment. No manual voting is required; simply upgrading nodes makes them compliant and prevents being amendment-blocked. Node operators and validators are urged to upgrade immediately; a detailed blog post will follow after the amendment goes live. The release follows v3.1.2 (Mar 13), which fixed an edge case that caused outages on public-facing nodes. Separately, Ondo, Ripple, JPMorgan and Mastercard completed a cross-border redemption of tokenized US Treasuries on XRPL in under five seconds, demonstrating XRPL's tokenized asset settlement capability.
