XRP Ledger has successfully launched the AMMClawback amendment, introducing new policies governing its Automated Market Maker pools. The upgrade went live yesterday after attaining 91.43% validator consensus. Source – xrpscan The modifications will allow the creation of AMM pools for stablecoin RLSUD. The development remains crucial as it will likely enhance liquidity for the remittance token while enriching trading opportunities within the XRPL DEX. What the amendment means Automated Market Makers are vital in decentralized finance (DeFi) for individuals to trade without old-style order books. The XRP Ledger unveiled the AMM feature in March 2024, allowing liquidity providers to earn rewards on selected pools. Meanwhile, specific limits hindered Ripple’s stablecoin from participating in the Automated Market Maker pools. The restriction arose from the clawback functionality. The feature allows token issuers to recover tokens in scenarios involving criminal activities, regulatory obstacles, or dealings with sanctioned players. The clawback functionality went live early in 2024.
