Shibarium Remains Operational Despite Claims of Reliability Issues

A debate has erupted in the Shiba Inu community over the status of Shibarium, its layer 2 network. Former project K9 Finance claimed that Shibarium hasn't worked reliably since a hack in September 2025, citing issues with its explorer.

Mazrael, a long-time Shiba Inu community member, disputed this claim, stating that Shibarium is operational and has thousands of daily transactions. He noted that individual projects like K9 Finance can choose to exit Shibarium without affecting the network's overall status.

Mazrael also addressed concerns about the Shibarium explorer, which went offline due to a DNS change on August 11. The explorer has since returned online and is currently experiencing a reset with 49% of blocks indexed.
