The XRP Ledger has opened validator voting on LendingProtocolV1_1, a proposed amendment that would add closed-ended lending vaults and change how interest is recognized. The vote is not enough on its own to put XRPL lending on mainnet, and the amendment still needs support from more than 80% of trusted validators held for two weeks.

Key claims & sources

✓
Validator voting opened on the XRP Ledger for LendingProtocolV1_1, an amendment proposing closed-ended lending vaults.
✓
The amendment would recognize interest when borrowers pay it rather than when loans originate.
✓
LendingProtocolV1_1 would change vaults to a subscription, investment, and redemption structure and use cash-basis interest accounting.

What it means

XRPL users and validators are the first to notice this change because voting has opened on an amendment that would add closed-ended lending vaults to the ledger. If it advances, the way vaults handle deposits and returns would be different from the current setup, and that would be visible in the ledger’s lending features rather than in general XRP transfers.

In practice, the proposal changes when interest is recognized and how vault activity is staged. Interest would be recorded when borrowers pay, and vaults would move through subscription, investment, and redemption phases instead of a different structure that existed before. (per coinspeaker.com)
