Shibarium Ready to Reopen to the Public

Shytoshi Kusama, the lead developer of Shiba Inu, has announced that Shibarium is almost ready to reopen to the public after going into fail-safe mode for testing and tweaking parameters due to massive traffic on the blockchain. The Shibarium team is scaling the chain by 1500% to prevent any block production or other issues.

Shibarium has a new monitoring system and additional fail-safe mechanisms to improve security, stability, and decentralization. The Shiba Inu team will also start implementing the ShibPaper to have a fully working system for governance and management, while projects and dApps will build on the Shibarium chain, increasing utility and token burns.
