XRP Ledger Batch Amendment: Why September 29, 2026 Is a Hard Deadline for Node Operators

If you hold XRP on an exchange or in a custodial wallet, there is nothing for you to do. If you run a node of your own, or run a service against a node of your own, this date is a hard deadline, after which your server drops out of the network.
