Network validators confirmed the EnableAmendment transaction in ledger 107,524,865, and developers have already begun testing the first operations.  Notably, this technical debut will go unnoticed by millions of retail investors: their personal wallets will continue to operate as before. Instead, this update effectively turns the XRP Ledger into a secure “whales safehouse” built for big capital.  Transaction receipt confirming the activation of the PermissionDelegationV1_1 amendment on the XRP Ledger, Source: XRPScan  In essence, Permission Delegation is a specialized security tool designed to meet the stringent standards of large businesses and traditional finance (TradFi). The feature allows the owner of a large account to grant a third-party account (a delegate) up to 10 strictly limited permissions. For example, a delegate can be authorized to make routine payments or approve trust lines.  The key feature is key isolation. The delegate signs transactions using its own keys, while the master key controlling the primary wallet with its million-dollar balances remains completely secure, either offline or in cold storage. Permissions can be revoked at any second, and delegating critical functions, such as changing the master keys, is technically impossible.  Who needs a “vault for whales” on XRPL, and why?

EU regulators target non-compliant stablecoins with a 90-day deadline

Crypto firms authorized under the EUs Markets in Crypto-Assets regulation (MiCA) should resolve EU clients remaining exposure to non-compliant stablecoins through their services within three months, according to a new opinion from the blocs markets watchdog.  Related Law MiCA: EU Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation European Union · In force  The European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) published the opinion Oct. 8. Where national regulators find legacy exposures, ESMA said they should require remediation as soon as possible and no later than three months after publication, or about Jan. 8, 2027.  National regulators may allow firms that do not yet comply to provide strictly limited services needed for an orderly wind-down and to avoid harm to clients. These can include liquidation, conversion, withdrawal, transfer or safekeeping of existing holdings.  Those exit services should be time-limited, clearly communicated to clients and closely supervised. They should not enable new acquisitions, promotion, active distribution or continued market availability.  National supervisors decide whether to allow them, so customers do not automatically get three months of continued service.  The opinions legal route is Article 66(1) of MiCA, which requires providers to act in clients best interests. In ESMAs view, providing any MiCA service involving a non-compliant stablecoin should give rise to a

Ripple News: Prime Enters Leveraged ETF Financing

In Ripple news today, Ripple Prime is reportedly providing total-return-swap financing to leveraged exchange-traded fund (ETF) issuers. This marks its entry in a U.S. sector that Morningstar Direct data counts at 593 funds and more than $256 billion in assets.  The figure describes the ETFs‘ combined assets, not Ripple Prime’s financing book, revenue, or the amount of capital it has committed. The report, published on Friday, October 9, 2026, places the prime-brokerage business in a fee-generating segment of institutional finance.  This is not simply a crypto company adding another product. It is a nonbank firm entering a financing business traditionally dominated by banks, as tighter capital limits create room for competitors. Ripple acquired Hidden Road for $1.25 billion and now operates the brokerage as Ripple Prime; the reported transactions do not establish any role for XRP or RLUSD.  The move also fits Ripples broader effort to build fee-generating businesses beyond its digital-asset holdings, though the ETF financing report does not quantify its contribution. A large addressable pool of fund assets is not evidence of equivalent business volume for Ripple, and that distinction matters.  ????

Coinbase rolls out 10x spot leverage, but blocks US retail from it

Coinbase plans to introduce spot borrowing with up to 10x leverage, letting eligible traders borrow against collateral to buy crypto on spot markets, but US customers who do not qualify as Eligible Contract Participants will be excluded.  Related Company Coinbase A leading digital currency company  The exchanges Oct. 7 announcement puts the rollout in the coming weeks. Access will depend on customer eligibility and selected jurisdictions, but Coinbase does not identify those countries, so availability cannot be assumed for every trader outside the US.  For US individuals, a 2021 statement by a commissioner at the CFTC, the US derivatives regulator, describes discretionary investments exceeding $10 million in aggregate, or exceeding $5 million when the transaction is for risk management purposes. That distinction puts the planned service beyond ordinary US retail access.  The restriction applies specifically to spot borrowing, and Coinbase says the product is offered by affiliates and is separate from Coinbase Financial Markets, which offers US derivatives.  For US customers, the margin lenders will be Coinbase Custody International Limited or Coinbase Credit, Inc., even though traders would manage spot borrowing and derivatives exposure through a shared margin portfolio.  Coinbase completed the Deribit migration on Oct. 2, setting the stage for Coinbases expansion, while the spot-margin

France advances stablecoin tax plan and 10-year crypto loss relief

French lawmakers have approved amendments to tax cryptocurrency conversions into stablecoins and allow investors to carry forward trading losses for 10 years as part of the countrys proposed 2027 budget.  According to French National Assembly records, the Finance Committee adopted the stablecoin taxation amendment on October 7, alongside a separate measure intended to change how losses from digital asset transactions can be deducted from future gains.  Both proposals remain at the committee stage and must pass further legislative review before becoming law. Lawmakers have considered several other crypto tax amendments, including a proposed exit tax for wealthy investors moving their tax residence outside France.  France stablecoin tax proposal would end existing exemption  Under amendment I-CF1826, submitted by lawmaker Nicolas Sansu, conversions from cryptocurrencies into qualifying electronic money tokens would become taxable transactions beginning January 1, 2027.  Current French tax rules generally allow individuals to exchange one cryptocurrency for another without immediately recognizing a taxable capital gain, provided the transaction falls within the applicable deferral provisions.  Converting Bitcoin or Ethereum into a qualifying stablecoin can receive the same treatment, even when the token is pegged to a traditional currency such as the US dollar or euro.  Sansu‘s proposal would remove the exemption for exchanges in which investors receive
