XRP Ledger Lowers Reserve Requirements to Attract More Users

Developers of the XRP Ledger have introduced significant updates to the network, aiming to accommodate its growing popularity and improve user accessibility.

A developer at XRPL Labs shared that the lab recently reconfigured its validator settings. These changes include lowering transaction fees and reserve requirements to prepare for the expected increase in blockchain activity. He explained that these updates are designed to make the network more user-friendly by reducing barriers to entry.

One of the key adjustments is a significant reduction in reserve requirements. As of December 2, the minimum amount needed to activate an XRP account has dropped from 20 XRP to just 1 XRP.

Additionally, the cost of maintaining a Token Trustline has been reduced to 0.2 XRP.
