Shiba Inu community member Mazrael announced the deployment of Safe v1.4.1 on the Shibarium network, highlighting a significant update for the project. This upgrade brings additional smart-account and multisignature wallet functionalities to Shiba Inu’s layer-2 blockchain.
New Safe contracts go live on Shibarium
Mazrael confirmed that nine Safe contracts are now deployed and verified on Shibariumscan, the dedicated explorer for Shibarium. A pull request named ‘safe-deployments PR#1666’ has also been submitted to register these deployments, providing further transparency and accessibility for developers and users.
He shared on X:
Safe v1.4.1 (9 contracts) live + verified on Shibariumscan. Safe-deployments PR#1666 opened.
Safe, formerly known as Gnosis Safe, is a widely adopted protocol for creating multisignature wallets and smart accounts. Its infrastructure allows multiple signers to manage and authorize blockchain transactions, which enhances both security and flexibility for projects and individuals.

AAPLMazrael mentioned that Safe reviews canonical-deployment registrations in two-week intervals and releases updates monthly. This structured approach ensures that upgrades and new deployments are rolled out systematically.
Mini dictionary: Safe (formerly Gnosis Safe) is a smart contract wallet protocol enabling multisignature control of crypto assets, commonly used by DAOs and projects requiring secure multi-user authorization.
Upgrade details and contract verification
A related GitHub document noted that all nine Safe v1.4.1 contracts have been deployed on the Shibarium mainnet at canonical addresses via the Safe Singleton Factory (0x914d7Fec6aaC8cd542e72Bca78B30650d45643d7), and each contract’s code has been verified through Shibariumscan.
Previously, Shibarium had Safe v1.3.0 registered through the eip155 deployment set. With pull request #1666, version 1.4.1 is now added at canonical addresses, matching the addresses used on other blockchains and enabling Safes on Shibarium to share addresses with those on other networks. This cross-network consistency was not possible with the earlier eip155 factory setup.
| Version | Deployment Set | Address Consistency |
|---|---|---|
| v1.3.0 | eip155 | No cross-network matching |
| v1.4.1 | canonical | Standardized across chains |
For all deployed contracts, addresses align with ‘deployments.canonical.address’ and their respective on-chain runtime code hashes match the ‘deployments.canonical.codeHash’ stored in the Safe repository, confirming their authenticity and correctness.
Status of the Shibarium network and explorer
Mazrael addressed speculation that Shiba Inu’s Shibarium network had ceased to function, stating that the layer-2 blockchain remains fully operational. He emphasized that the network infrastructure is under ongoing maintenance and migration, and Shibarium’s community continues to be active.
Currently, Shibariumscan is in the middle of a reset process with 50% of blocks indexed so far. This follows an outage on August 11, after which Shibariumscan transitioned to Cloudflare protection and began a broader infrastructure migration.
The Shibarium layer-2 network is still up and running, with infrastructure actively maintained and migrated, ensuring ongoing operations for its community.
