In an exciting turn of events, Shibarium, the Ethereum-based layer 2 blockchain of Shiba Inu, has witnessed yet another crucial milestone in its overall number of transactions carried out on the platform.
Shiba Inu Blockchain Latest Milestone
The total number of transactions on the layer 2 blockchain has skyrocketed since Shibarium was launched, surpassing several crucial milestones. In addition, the blockchain is gaining enormous traction and has seen widespread utilization from its community members.
The Shiba Inu blockchain recently reached another important benchmark after surpassing the 300 million transactions threshold. This achievement comes just five months after Shibarium was introduced by the Shiba Inu team.
Data from Shibariumscan.io reveals that the total number of transactions carried out within the platform is sitting at 304,137,502. These transactions were carried out by approximately 1.3 million wallet addresses.
Shibarium’s performance goes beyond the total number of transactions on the network. The platform shows that over 2.7 million blocks have been processed, totaling 2,788,561.
Despite the development, the network’s activity appears to be slowing down. The data from the network’s tracker shows that the average daily count is sitting at 2.69 million. This is a drop from the average 7 million transaction count it recorded throughout last month.
Shibarium’s latest milestone comes amidst a massive whale transaction that saw over 400 billion Shiba Inu tokens being moved between unknown wallets. According to data from Etherscan, the transaction totalled 419,872,915,864 SHIB, valued at a whopping $3.87 million.
The reports show that the unknown wallet, identified as 0xecfB3971, moved the aforementioned funds to another unknown wallet address, 0xd373B9. The move has since raised speculations around the community because both addresses are still unrecognized.
SHIB Community Celebrates The Latest Heights
Members of the Shiba Inu community have been celebrating the latest achievement as Shibarium transactions have topped 300 million. The team has also shared the accomplishment on the social media platform X (formerly Twitter).
