XRPL's proposed "AMM Swappable Curves" amendment would add concentrated liquidity and StableSwap options to its automated market maker, addressing a critical DeFi gap.

With $3 billion in tokenized real-world assets on XRPL, this enhancement could unlock institutional yield and trading activity, though amendment passage isn't guaranteed and could take months.
