Musk’s Engagement With Cryptocurrency Communities
Renowned tech titan Elon Musk, known for his influential social media presence, recently shared an announcement on X about his other space-related endeavors besides SpaceX. Musk highlighted the successful deployment of additional Starlinks into Earth’s orbit in his tweet.
Notably, the first responders to Musk’s announcement were accounts associated with XRP. Since Twitter’s transformation into X, XRP enthusiasts have pointed out the striking resemblance between the platform’s ‘X’ logo and the cryptocurrency’s distinctive logo.
The XRP Army frequently engage in lively discussions and leave numerous comments under Musk’s tweets. In this instance, when Musk emphasized the letter ‘X,’ XRP enthusiasts commented with statements like “$XRP on its way to orbit post-takeoff!” and “More XRP reaching orbit.”
However, the renowned tech titan hasn’t replied to these XRP-related comments. Elon Musk’s engagement with cryptocurrency communities through his tweets continues to cause short-term fluctuations in the value of various cryptocurrencies, leaving XRP enthusiasts hopeful of recognition from the influential tech figure.
Results And Impact Of Bishop Fox’s Audit On EVM Sidechain
In a related development, the XRP Ledger team has unveiled the results from an extensive security audit conducted by cyber security firm Bishop Fox. The audit primarily focused on scrutinizing the EVM sidechain, specifically evaluating its implementation and consensus mechanism.
Also, it aims to bridge the system between XRPL and EVM, utilizing the XLS-38 cross-chain bridging specification for XRPL. Bishop Fox recently released remediation reports addressing issues identified in the EVM sidechain and the XLS-38 cross-chain bridge.
These resolutions will be integrated into the mainnet launch of the EVM sidechain, rectifying the highlighted vulnerabilities. Developed in collaboration between Peersyst and Ripple, the EVM sidechain, marked by the launch of its v2 devnet in June 2023, continues to undergo advancements aimed at enhancing its security and functionality.
This audit outcome signifies a significant step towards fortifying the reliability and robustness of the XRP Ledger’s auxiliary systems, fostering greater user confidence.
