Vitalik Buterin, who co-founded&nbsp;<a href="https://u.today/ethereum-core-developer-crypto-is-casino" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Ethereum</a>, recently shared an optimistic forecast about the future of Ethereum's ecosystem. He highlighted some big improvements in cross-L2 interoperability that could make a big difference to how users experience Layer 1, rollups and sidechains.
Buterin highlighted the commitment and drive within the Ethereum community to tackle these interoperability issues and set out a plan for how these improvements will be made.
In response to Buterin's prediction,&nbsp;<a href="https://x.com/ShytoshiKusama/status/1821011187087085638" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Shytoshi Kusama</a>, the anonymous lead of the&nbsp;<a href="https://u.today/binances-shiba-inu-shib-balances-continue-to-drop" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Shiba Inu (SHIB)</a> community and development, posted a short reaction: "I wouldn't be surprised." Kusama's response is worth noting, given that Shiba Inu's own Layer-2 EVM blockchain solution, Shibarium, is marking its first anniversary this August.
<blockquote>
 I won't be surprised one bit. <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/shibarmy?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">#shibarmy</a> <a href="https://t.co/RhSpLLyOXV" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">https://t.co/RhSpLLyOXV</a>— Shytoshi Kusama™ (@ShytoshiKusama) <a href="https://twitter.com/ShytoshiKusama/status/1821011187087085638?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">August 7, 2024</a>
</blockquote>
<h2 dir="ltr" id="shibarium-s-year">Shibarium's year</h2>
Shibarium has made some great progress over the past year. The numbers show some impressive growth: an average block time of 26.726 seconds, over 416 million completed transactions and more than 1.8 million total addresses. The platform has seen a lot of activity, with almost 1.8 million BONE transfers and over 11,000 tokens in circulation. <img alt="&quot;&quot;" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="a6969258-cf27-418c-8056-3322906cc5ee" src="https://u.today/sites/default/files/inline-images/shibarium_10.png">Source: <a href="https://www.shibariumscan.io/stats" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Shibariumscan</a>
Shibarium is still a new project, but it is already looking good. Buterin thinks L2s are going to be big, and Kusama is pretty confident too. One thing for sure, many&nbsp;<a href="https://u.today/shiba-inu-faces-22-billion-shib-threat-from-bankrupt-broker" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">SHIB</a> enthusiasts cannot wait to see what happens with Shiba Inu's blockchain infrastructure over the next year.
