A
AMM (Automated Market Maker)
A smart liquidity engine on XRPL that holds two assets in a pool and
quotes prices algorithmically. When you trade against the pool, you move
the price, not an order book. On The RAD Ledger, AMMs are the main route
for honest price discovery.
AMM Pool
The specific pair of assets locked inside an AMM instance, for example
$RAD/XRP. The pool balance determines price, slippage, and depth.
C
Certified Listing
A project that has passed full RAD vetting and is backed by a
vault-locked Seal NFT held in the RAD certification wallet.
Certified listings are permanent unless the Seal is revoked for a
trust violation and optionally burned on-chain.
Certified Seal NFT
The on-chain NFT that backs a Certified project on The RAD Ledger.
It is held in the RAD certification wallet, not by the project.
If the project violates trust, this Seal is revoked on the Ledger and
may be burned to signal final termination.
L
Ledger
In this context, The RAD Ledger — a curated index of XRPL tokens,
their status (Certified, Verified, Unverified, Expired), and any attached
threat intelligence, not a chain-wide explorer.
Liquidity
The depth of assets available in an AMM pool or order book. More
liquidity means your trade moves price less. Thin liquidity is where
most retail gets nuked.
R
Rug (Rug Pull)
A deliberate extraction of value from holders, usually by removing
liquidity, abusing admin keys, or redirecting funds. On The RAD Ledger,
rugs and attempted rugs are documented in the Rug Report.
Rug Attempt
A failed or intercepted rug. The intent was malicious, but execution
was blocked, reversed, or exposed early. Still documented. Still noted.
T
Threat Actor
An individual, wallet, or group identified as a direct risk to
XRPL holders. Repeated scams, exploits, or coordinated attacks
graduate addresses into the Threat Actors Directory.
Trustline
An XRPL link between your wallet and a token’s issuer that allows you
to hold that asset. If you cannot set a trustline, you cannot receive
the token. The Ledger uses trustlines and issuer data to index projects.
V
Verified Listing
A project that has been manually reviewed, but without a vault-locked
Seal NFT. Verified listings must renew annually. If they do not renew
or fail review, they move to Expired.
Verification Renewal
The annual process of refreshing a Verified project’s status, data,
and contact details. Failure to renew flags the listing as Expired
until a fresh review is completed.
Other Terms
Unverified Listing
A token auto-listed from XRPL with minimal or no project contact.
These are indexed for awareness, not endorsement. Treat them as
unknown risk until upgraded to Verified or Certified.
XRPL (XRP Ledger)
The underlying chain for all RAD Ledger tracking — fast settlement,
low fees, and native AMMs. Everything on this site assumes XRPL-native
behavior unless stated otherwise.
