Shiba Inu Developer Calls for Full Decentralization

In a recent X conversation, SHIB developer Kaal Dhairya addresses the Shiba Inu project’s goal of full decentralization.

A conversation was sparked when X user “woofswap” suggested transferring control of the Ryoshi Medium and Shiba Inu X account, “Shibtoken,” to Kaal Dhairya. This led to immediate reactions, with another user arguing that such a move would give full control of every SHIB asset to the team, which they felt would be too centralized.

Kaal Dhairya responded, advocating instead for a shift towards community governance. He stated, “I don’t want it, but how about surrendering everything to the SHIB DAO and Shib Foundation, letting the community manage it? Let’s put in an open and fair system with all the tech we’ve put in place. Thoughts?”

The Shiba Inu Doggy DAO mentioned by Dhairya is the governance system at the heart of the Shiba Inu ecosystem. It empowers the community to actively shape the project’s future.

What does this mean?

A Decentralized Autonomous Organization (DAO) allows people to collaborate, vote, and manage shared resources without traditional leadership. For Shiba Inu, the Doggy DAO creates a community-first approach where decisions are made through proposals and votes, transparently recorded on the blockchain.

Shiba Inu Alpha Layer Block Explorer Now Live

The Shib Alpha Layer Block Explorer has launched, providing the Shibarium ecosystem’s first native tool for real-time transaction and block monitoring. Built for Shiba Inu’s Layer-3 infrastructure, the explorer showcases the activity of the Shib Alpha Layer and represents a significant step towards blockchain transparency. The Shib Alpha Layer (beta), a rollup abstraction stack designed to scale Shibarium with advanced privacy features, was announced last month.
