We would like to inform our customers that Ripple has scheduled a reset of the XRP Testnet on Monday, 19th August 2024. During this time, access to the testnet network will be unavailable until the update is completed.

Expected Outcomes:

Ripple has stated that this reset is necessary to enhance the network’s stability, efficiency.

Impact:

- Affected Network: XRP Testnet will be impacted during the reset period.

- Unaffected Networks: XRPL Mainnet, XRPL Devnet, Xahau, and the Hooks Testnet will continue to function as normal with no interruptions.

- Data Deletion: All ledger data on the Testnet will be erased, including accounts, transactions, balances, settings, offers, AMMs, escrows, and other related data. This will reset all balances to zero and restart the block number from one.

- Service Continuity: Services like Testnet APIs, faucets, Explorers, access rights, and wallet integrations are not expected to be impacted, as they typically handle resets seamlessly.

Action Required:
Following the reset, customers must create new test addresses, transactions, webhooks, and event subscriptions if they wish to continue using the XRP Testnet.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

We are releasing several improvements, affecting the “Get Transaction Details By Transaction ID” and “List Tokens Transfers By Transaction Hash” endpoints. In addition, two new endpoints “List Synced HD Wallets” and “Activate HD Wallets” have been introduced and are now available for integration as part of our blockchain suite.  

Get Transaction Details By Transaction ID

As part of our planned upgrades we have added to the Binance Smart Chain (BSC) protocol a “Transaction Status”. Customers can now obtain data about transactions that occurred on the protocol, and more specifically get information on their transaction unique identifiers.   

List Tokens Transfers By Transaction Hash

Through this endpoint, our customers can receive data about transactions, including details on whether transactions are validated on the blockchain. Our update added the “Token ID” attribute to the endpoint, allowing receiving information for non-fungible tokens (NFTs) about their unique identifier code 

List Synced HD Wallets - new endpoint

This endpoint allows our customеrs to list all of their synced wallets and delete them. Via pagination getting up to 50th results in a single page.

Activate HD Wallet - new endpoint

Customers can choose to initiate a one-off synchronization for their HD wallet in case of payment delays or subscription plan downgrades due to insufficient payments. Upon re-subscribing to our services the new endpoint will allow to re-activate synchronization for their hierarchical deterministic wallet(s).

Live data on the Binance Smart Chain (BSC) mainnet has been successfully integrated and is now live and accessible through the following endpoints:

• Get Transaction Details By Transaction ID

• List Confirmed Transactions By Address

• List Tokens Transfers By Transaction Hash

• List Confirmed Tokens Transfers By Address

• List Tokens By Address

Synced HD wallet addresses, Tron added to endpoints & Security updates

We have listed synced addresses with possible value being synced with Sync New HD wallets. The added possible values are:

bitcoin bitcoin-cash litecoin dogecoin dash ethereum zcash ethereum-classic binance-smart-chain xrp tron

Tron Mainnet & Tron Nile
We have also added Tron mainnet and Tron Nile testnet to the following endpoints:

• Get Transaction Details By Transaction ID

• List Tokens Transfers By Transaction Hash

Security Updates

A security patch update automatically blocks IPs from unauthorized sources when invalid requests from the same IP address are received in a period exceeding 24 hours.

We have released two new endpoints for preparing token transfers as part of our Blockchain Tools:

• Prepare A Fungible Token Transfer From Address  
• Prepare A Non-Fungible Token Transfer From Address 

Using these two separate endpoints, customers can prepare transfers for fungible and non-fungible tokens from an address with private and public keys. The address doesn’t have to belong to a wallet. The response will include the transaction fee in Wei.

What else is new:

• In the endpoint New Reverted Block we’ve added UTXO protocols as possible values. 
• In the responses of List Confirmed Transactions By Address and Get Transaction Details by Transaction Id endpoints "contract" and "input" are now optional.
• In the Prepare A UTXO-Based Transaction From HD Wallet (xPub, yPub, zPub) endpoint, the “replaceable” has been made optional (previously required) in all places.
  

Technical documentation updates:

We’ve added additional information on the paginated and list based endpoints and we’ve updated the values for API requests. 

We've also updated our Key Management System (KMS) on GitHub.

Here is what's new in our latest release:

New endpoint: Prepare Transaction From Address

Through this endpoint customers can prepare a transaction from an address with private and public keys. The address doesn’t have to belong to a wallet. The response will include the transaction fee in Wei. The API is part of Blockchain Tools.

Improvement: 

The endpoint Prepare An Account Based Transaction From HD Wallet has been renamed to Prepare A Transaction From an Address in HD Wallet (xPub, yPub, zPub) to more correctly reflect its purpose. 

We’ve also updated our Node.js SDK and our Key Management System on GitHub.

Please update your libraries if you’ve used this endpoint.
