Shibarium Back Online As Shiba Inu Team Identifies Issues, Insures User Funds Worth $2M
Shiba Inu’s top developer Kaal Dhairya has shared the first update on Shibarium scaling. The prominent developer shared the update in a blog post today.
Shibarium Team Invites Other Devs After Identifying Issue
According to Dhairya, Shibarium – a fork of the Ethereum L2 scaling solution Polygon – went into a fail-safe mode due to millions of compute units of traffic recorded in minutes.
He noted that the Shibarium development team has investigated and identified where the issues occurred. In one block alone, the team found thousands of contracts and normal transactions created by users.
After unraveling the issue, Shiba Inu invited some top blockchain developers to help, alongside Shibarium devs and the Unification team. Dhairya promised to disclose the identities of these “friends,” helping to scale the system.
Shiba Inu Dev Addresses FUD
Furthermore, Dhairya addressed the FUD spread by illicit actors concerning the project. Part of this FUD campaign included a fake screenshot of Shiba Inu’s lead developer Shytoshi Kusama admitting that users’ funds were lost and irrecoverable.
Commenting on the development, Dhairya said the fake screenshot caused incredible damage to the team. He expressed surprise that top media outlets would consider the fake post.
However, Dhairya said he is assessing the damage of the FUD and will call on the team behind X (formerly Twitter) to identify the culprit for justice to prevail.
“Such attacks upon our system by bad actors will not be tolerated,” he added.
