Shibarium Indexing Reaches 41%, Addressing Data Discrepancies
Shiba Inu's Layer 2 network, Shibarium, has reached a key technical milestone, with its block explorer confirming that 41% of blocks are now indexed as of March 12. This synchronization process is critical for the network's health, as incomplete indexing was the primary cause of recent user-facing issues. In early March, users reported that some tokens and NFTs were not displaying correctly in wallets, a problem attributed to delays in explorer data reporting. By advancing the indexing, the network is directly addressing these data inaccuracies, which will restore correct on-chain counts for total blocks, transactions, and wallet addresses.
Infrastructure Overhaul Aims to Stabilize L2 Performance
This indexing progress is part of a broader effort to bolster Shibarium's core infrastructure. The network underwent a migration to a new server in February to improve overall performance, and developers recently retired the old Remote Procedure Call (RPC) endpoint in favor of a new one for dApps and wallets. These upgrades are designed to create a more stable and reliable environment for users and developers. Acknowledging the ongoing work, Shiba Inu team member Lucie noted the network's steady progress. The market reacted modestly to the developments, with the SHIB token trading up 1.61% to $0.000005932 in the last 24 hours.
Shibarium is getting back slowly... the SHIB ecosystem has taken every hit, every bear market headline, and every it’s over post. Yet here we are.
