In an effort to enhance its network infrastructure, the XRP Ledger Foundation (XRPLF) has recently made significant changes to its Unique Node List (UNL), welcoming three new validators while delisting three others due to performance issues.
Introduction of New Validators
The XRPLF team announced the addition of three new validators through an official statement. The newcomers are Ekiserrepe.es, XRPKuwait.com, and onXRP.com. These entities have been recognized for their active involvement and contributions to the XRP ecosystem.
