New Developments Surrounding Shiba Inu
Large investors or whales often react to market developments by moving their funds in or out. Regarding the new developments surrounding Shiba Inu, developer Kaal Dhairya informed the community earlier this week. With an impressive move, a hosted version of Blockscout Explorer called Shibariumscan has been launched. This allows the Shiba Inu team to focus on the network and its updates, while the Blockscout team ensures that the blockchain explorer remains operational and fully indexed.
Shiba Inu is also signaling collaboration with a series of third-party bridges to connect with other altcoins through Shibarium. Additionally, preparations for the abandonment of the Bone contract will be implemented this week, and more validators will be added to the network.
