After a turbulent launch, the Shiba Inu ecosystem’s lead developer, Shytoshi Kusama, has announced a significant transition for Shibarium, the Shiba Inu Layer 2 blockchain network. The protocol is now operating in private mode as the development team focuses intensively on enhancing its security protocols.
The shift emphasizes the project’s commitment to establishing a secure environment that safeguards user data and privacy during interactions on the platform.
Kusama emphasizes that the primary thrust of this effort has been the meticulous review and implementation of robust security measures within the Shibarium framework. Moreover, the development team has initiated an extensive testing phase, aimed at identifying potential vulnerabilities within the blockchain system.
Operational Resilience in Shibarium Private Mode
Despite being in private mode, Shibarium remains fully operational. Kusama’s update confirms that the blockchain continues to generate blocks as per its usual functioning. This ongoing operation underscores the platform’s resilience and stability, even as it undergoes critical security enhancements and testing.
Additionally, Kusama indicates that scaling efforts and testing will continue until Monday before the platform is ready to be reopened to the public. In preparation for this imminent phase, Kusama has recommended that the development team takes a thoroughly deserved break, underscoring the significance of rejuvenation for the tasks that lie ahead.
Advancements in Scaling
Concurrently, a subsequent update outlines the significant strides made in the scaling journey of Shibarium. Following the initial transition, the development team has been tirelessly refining the platform’s scaling mechanisms. A pivotal step in this process involved temporary internal testing, crucial for identifying potential vulnerabilities before a wider rollout.
This update also provides insight into the impressive scaling achievements that have already been realized. The Alchemy team, known for their expertise in blockchain technology has managed to elevate Shibarium’s operational capabilities by an astounding 1,500%. This remarkable accomplishment demonstrates the platform’s readiness to handle increased demand and transaction volumes.
In parallel, the decentralized team and validators have equally achieved remarkable progress by scaling the server infrastructure by an additional 1,500%.
