XRP Ledger has integrated Confidential Transfers for Multi-Purpose Tokens into its development branch, advancing a privacy feature that first entered the validator process in the Aug. 6 release of xrpld 3.3.0. Defined in the XLS-0096 draft standard, the proposal uses advanced cryptography to let MPT balances and payment amounts be encrypted while the ledger can still validate transfers, with the participating accounts and token type remaining visible. The feature is still not active on Mainnet. Like the other 3.3.0 proposals, it requires support from more than 80% of trusted validators for two continuous weeks. In its initial form, Confidential Transfers would be opt-in and limited to direct MPT payments between accounts, excluding XRPL's built-in decentralized exchange, escrow arrangements and checks. The proposal is aimed at institutional tokenized-asset use on XRPL, where RWA.xyz tracks about $1.38 billion in real-world assets, including $845.7 million in RLUSD and more than $530 million in other tracked assets.
