XRP Ledger Testnet and Devnet Face Major November Reset Wiping All Data

XRP Ledger Testnet and Devnet Face Major November Reset Wiping All Data

UTodayUToday2026/11/11 09:15

XRP ledger developers have been notified regarding upcoming resets for Testnet and Devnets. According to a statement, XRPL testnet and devnet are scheduled for a reset on November 25, 2026, to improve full history server stability.

Testnet and Devnet for XRP Ledger developers will be reset on Nov 25, 2026 at 5–6 PM PT. All on-chain state (accounts, tokens, AMMs, etc.) will be deleted and will need a re-fund and re-setup afterward. Other networks will continue to operate as usual, including Mainnet, Xahau, and the Hooks Testnet.

Ripple runs Testnet and Devnet, so the community can test out new features and integrations without risking real money.

The XRPL Testnet used to depend on a single full history server, which went down and cannot be recovered without a reset. To avoid this from happening again, an upgrade was performed to increase the server storage capacity.

The resets will delete all ledger data in Testnet and Devnet, including all accounts, transactions, balances, settings, offers, AMMs, escrows, and other data. Testnet will have its Amendment statuses restored to match Mainnet's. However, any AMMs that are re-created after the reset will generally have different account addresses. As a best practice, users are urged not to use the same addresses or key pairs on Mainnet and any test networks.

The important URLs, Network ID, and validator settings for both the devnet and testnets will stay the same. For XRPL users who run an xrpld server that is connected to testnet or Devnet, after the reset they should delete their database data and restart the server.

The last time the XRPL devnet saw a reset was on March 3, 2026. This was necessitated due to the Batch amendment, which required more development at the time and to prevent validators from becoming amendment-blocked, a Devnet reset was required.

XRPL news

The XRPL foundation has launched the XRP Ledger Education Month with up to $40,000 in awards for educators and content creators who explain upcoming amendments like the Lending Protocol or teach how the XRP Ledger works, the role of XRP and the core protocol philosophies.

Since XRPL 3.3.0, memory consumption has been reduced by up to 23% on nodes. Memory growth in XRPL nodes was observed in late summer 2025 and a fix shipped in xrpld 3.3.0.
