An amendment is a change to the XRP Ledger’s rules. It switches on for everyone at once, and only after more than 80% of the trusted validators have voted for it for two weeks without a break. 97 have switched on since 2016, 14 of them in 2026.
The vote right now
Every amendment the current server software supports and validators are voting on, read from the ledger on 10 November 2026:

The dark mark is the 29-vote line: more than 80% of 36. An amendment over it has to stay there for two weeks without a break.
How the vote works
Who votes. The validators each server trusts, its UNL. Every validator states, in its validations, which amendments it supports.
The bar. More than 80%: the threshold is 80% of the trusted validations, rounded down, and the votes must exceed it (SystemParameters.h, AmendmentTable.cpp).
The wait. “Amendments must maintain two weeks of support from more than 80% of trusted validators to be enabled.” If support drops below 80%, “the two week period restarts” (xrpl.org).
The switch. It turns on in a flag ledger, one of every 256, for every server at the same ledger.
Undoing it. “Disabling a passed amendment requires a new amendment to do so.”
A server running software that does not know an enabled amendment becomes amendment blocked: it can no longer check ledgers, submit or process transactions, take part in consensus or vote (xrpl.org). That is why node operators upgrade when an amendment they have not got gains a majority.

Questions
What is an XRP Ledger amendment?
A change to the ledger’s rules, such as a new transaction type. It is built into the server software first, then switched on for everyone at once when the trusted validators vote it in.
How many votes does an amendment need?
More than 80% of the trusted validators, held for two weeks without a break. If support drops below that, the two weeks start again.
Can an amendment be undone?
Only by another amendment. Once switched on, it stays on unless validators vote in a new change that reverses it.
What does “amendment blocked” mean?
A server whose software does not know an amendment the network has switched on stops: it cannot check ledgers, submit transactions or vote until it is upgraded.
