RippleX software developer Mayukha Vadari clarifies a common misconception about XRP Ledger feature usage, with some assuming transaction volume is a way to measure the utility of an XRPL amendment.

In her view, these tokens might not need to use the transaction much.


Clawback refers to tokens that have a feature allowing the issuer to reclaim or "claw back" these tokens from users' wallets under certain conditions, and the feature was launched on the XRPL in January 2025.

Vadari noted that utilization of sponsored fees and reserves should track the use of the sponsor field on transactions more so than the new transactions introduced (SponsorshipSet and SponsorshipTransfer). She added that those transactions not being used much do not provide much information on whether the feature as a whole is being used, as many flows may likely not use the transactions at all.
