'We Have Big Plans for 2027': Ripple Engineering Director Teases XRP Ledger Overhaul

Ripple's director of engineering Viijay Khanna directly confirmed that the company is readying 'big plans' for XRP Ledger in 2027. The remark came amid the debates around the blockchain's speed, when critics put the XRP network's stats (around 1,500 transactions per second) against the average daily load of Visa , labeling the XRPL "an outdated copy of legacy payment systems". "We have big plans for performance improvements lined up for 2027", said Khanna, effectively ending speculations. Ripple's engineering department is aiming to exit the race for beautiful numbers behind the TPS metric. The logic is that the basic Layer-1 does not need to digest millions of small transactions directly. Retail microtraffic then goes to the second layer like Dassie (Interledger).
