The Shibarium network has taken a significant step towards improving its infrastructure by retiring its old public RPC connection. This decision is part of a broader migration and security upgrade aimed at enhancing the overall performance and security of the network. Based on the data provided in the document, the new system is expected to provide better reliability and speed for users.
Discrepancies in Shibariumscan Explorer Statistics
The retirement of the old RPC connection has resulted in noticeable discrepancies in the statistics reported on the Shibariumscan explorer. Users have observed a significant drop in the figures for total blocks, transactions, and addresses, raising concerns about the accuracy of the data presented.
Transition to New RPC Connection
As the network transitions to the new RPC connection, it is expected that these statistics will stabilize and reflect the true activity on the Shibarium network. The team behind Shibarium is working diligently to address these issues and ensure that users have access to reliable and accurate information moving forward.
The recent upgrade to the Ethereum network, known as EIP-4844, has introduced a new blob fee structure that contrasts with the recent changes in the Shibarium network's RPC connection. For more details, see this article.
