The Shiba Inu blockchain has undergone a considerable upgrade today. The Heimdall and Bor hard forks are live. They aim to improve performance and stability and include an upgradeable recording contract.
Heimdall’s Hard Fork
According to the official documentation, the latest version of Heimdall update i.e. v1.07-bone has been released for the Shibarium blockchain.
Among the many features of the update are:
Documentation improvements Code validation improvements Dependency updates; Bug fixes, etc.
After the hard fork, Shibarium validators must upgrade to the version before the Dencun hard fork takes place on Bor. This would ensure compatibility with Ethereum (after its fork) by updating the bor package to v.1.3.7, which is now able to handle blob transactions introduced by the Dencun hard fork on Ethereum.
The Forca Dura del Bor
This particular release focuses on improving performance, blockchain management, security, as well as adding certain merges.
One of the most important features of the Bor update is the new recording contract. According to the official documentation:
We are upgrading the recording contract to an upgradeable version to support future updates and exciting improvements. The new burn contract has been deployed at address 0x541F60e5576764cA3957f70b6a1E60f3CE5886e0 in block 8200512, playing a key role in the deflationary mechanics of the ecosystem.
