Alongside this, users voiced concerns over a malfunctioning RPC system, a less-than-ideal blockchain explorer, and a generally unsatisfactory experience for the SHIB community. The Shiba Inu team, in response to these events, highlighted that an unforeseen surge in traffic was the primary culprit behind the network&#8217;s technical hiccups. The statement revealed that &#8220;Shibarium received millions of &#8216;compute units&#8217; of traffic within moments.&#8221; This unexpected volume led to thousands of contracts being generated in a single block, prompting Shibarium to activate its failsafe mode.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Team&#8217;s Response and Future Plans<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Shiba Inu&#8217;s lead developer, Shytoshi Kusama, further elaborated on the situation in an August 17th blog post. Kusama emphasized that there were no inherent issues with the Shibarium bridge. Instead, the network&#8217;s temporary collapse was attributed to an overwhelming number of transactions and users shortly after its launch. In a recent update, the team mentioned their collaboration with external experts to enhance Shibarium&#8217;s capacity, ensuring it can handle increased traffic without subsequent technical issues. SHIB developer Kaal Dhairya indicated that they&#8217;ve pinpointed several strategies for this network expansion and will keep the community informed about the chosen approach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Personal Commentary: A Balanced Perspective<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>From my point of view, while the technical issues during the Shibarium launch were unfortunate, they also underscore the immense interest and demand for such platforms in the crypto space. The overwhelming traffic, although leading to initial setbacks, is a testament to the potential and anticipation surrounding Shibarium. On the flip side, it&#8217;s essential for developers and teams to be better prepared for such eventualities, especially when launching platforms that can handle significant financial transactions. The incident with the &#8220;fake screenshot&#8221; circulating on social media further highlights the challenges teams face in managing both technical and public relations aspects in today&#8217;s digital age. As I see it, while the Shiba Inu team&#8217;s proactive response is commendable, it&#8217;s a reminder for all in the industry to prioritize both infrastructure robustness and transparent communication.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Technical Setbacks and Their Causes Technical challenges marred the recent Shibarium layer-2 blockchain launch, resulting in approximately $1.7 million in ETH being temporarily trapped in the Shibarium cross-chain bridge.
