What’s been happening with the recent glitch on the newly launched Shibarium network? The Shibarium Devs have provided an update, reassuring the community that they’re hard at work to rectify the situation. The unexpected surge in traffic that came with the project’s rising popularity triggered the glitch, leading the team to implement scaling measures to accommodate the influx of users.
Shibarium’s Glitch: A Brief Overview
Shibarium, the network recently launched by the Shib team, experienced a glitch due to a sudden surge in traffic. This unforeseen eventuality was the result of the project’s rapidly growing popularity. As a response, the team is now focusing on scaling operations to handle the massive influx of Shibarium users.
Kaal Dhairya, a member of the Shib team, explained that Shibarium received millions of “compute units” of traffic within a short time. A meticulous investigation revealed thousands of contract creations and normal transactions in the block, leading the Shibarium network to switch into a fail-safe mode. This step was taken to ensure that funds are SAFU – Secure Asset Funds for Users.
Working with “Powerful Frens” to Fix the Issue
Shibarium Devs announced that they have sought help from “powerful frens” in resolving the issue. These individuals are working closely with the Shibarium developers and the Unification team to scale the blockchain. Despite being in the early stages, multiple plans of action have already been identified.
Addressing Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt
The Shib team member also debunked a “fake screenshot” circulating in the media, which he blamed for creating Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt (FUD) within the SHIB ecosystem. He assured the community that steps would be taken to identify the culprits behind the screenshot.
Dhairya urged members of the Shib community to rely only on official sources for information. He emphasized that the funds “paused” on the bridge are SAFU and that the project has insured the entire amount of $2 million in case of any issues upon restarting Shibarium.
