SHIB may have Privacy Transactions
Shiba Inu added a new feature to SHIB that allows anonymous transactions through the Bermuda Privacy App. This means that meme altcoin transfers can be performed in a similar way to privacy coins such as Monero and ZCash. The recipient of SHIB sees only the address of the dApp and does not have to disclose the sender’s wallet address during the transfer.
Shibarium Launched Behind the Price Surge
One of the main reasons for the Shiba Inu’s price rise is the anticipated launch of a new blockchain called “Shibarium”.
In a blog post, Shiba Inu developers stated that they are nearing the final touches for Shibarium Beta’s imminent launch and that patience is key. Some see Shibarium as a price-pushing tool, but that’s not the project’s focus.
