A series of anomalous transactions on the XRP Ledger (XRPL) have sparked community concerns. Due to code errors, users have cumulatively lost over 2000 dollars in fees. One user paid a fee of 690 XRP on a single transaction, which is hundreds of thousands of times the standard fee. Analysts attribute the surge in such costly mistakes to the rise of "vibe coding"—a coding approach where users rely on AI tools to write scripts without verifying transaction logic, resulting in spam transaction loops and high automated fees.
