A Ripple-operated validator has signaled support for Sponsor, a proposed XRP Ledger feature that lets one account cover another’s transaction costs, but the amendment remains 18 votes short of the threshold for its activation period. At 5:05 a.m. ET (9:05 UTC) Thursday, Oct. 15, Sponsor had 11 yes votes among 35 trusted validators. It needs 29 votes to reach the threshold, which represents more than 80% of the validators heard. Reaching 29 votes would start the required two-week support period.
