# XRP Ledger Fix Holds 29 Validator Votes as Oct. 23 Activation Nears By Simon Yoon Canonical URL: https://www.tokenpost.com/news/technology/34836 Published: 2026-10-19T14:34:41.000Z Updated: 2026-10-19T14:34:41.000Z Section: Technology > Three separate lending amendments remain short of the 29 votes needed to start their own two-week approval periods. An XRP Ledger cleanup fix held the minimum validator support at an Oct. 19 check, preserving a possible Oct. 23 activation while the proposed lending system remained further from approval. The fixCleanup3_4_0 amendment had 29 votes from 35 trusted validators at 10 a.m. ET (14:00 UTC). If the validator total stays at 35, losing one supporting vote would reset its two-week approval period. The patch adjusts rounding for deposits to and withdrawals from single-asset vaults. It also changes when a loan is classified as late or in default. Other changes address [delegated PaymentBurn permissions]() and controls affecting automated market makers and escrow. The fix does not activate lending. The other amendments remained below threshold: SingleAssetVault had 21 votes, and LendingProtocol and LendingProtocolV1_1 had 19 apiece. Each needs 29 votes to begin its own two-week approval period. The proposed lending system would pool assets in vaults for fixed-term loans without collateral. Borrower assessment would happen offchain, and first-loss capital is intended to absorb defaults. No Mainnet activation date has been confirmed for lending. If support for fixCleanup3_4_0 holds, its approval period ends Oct. 23 at 5:34 a.m. ET (09:34 UTC). The amendment would activate at a later ledger checkpoint. ## Links in this article - [delegated PaymentBurn permissions](https://www.tokenpost.com/news/technology/34149)
