According to recent Shibarium updates provided by Unification, the Shibarium Private Alpha TestNet has been operating effectively for several weeks and is currently undergoing development in preparation for the public Beta TestNet deployment. The wallet application, which will facilitate two-way asset transfers between L1 and L2, staking/delegating and, in later editions, Shibaswap integration, are the main tools that are now under active development.
The launch of the Shibarium Public Beta TestNet, which will enable complete network interaction for users, including the validation process, is scheduled for Q3.
Shiba Inu's community-dedicated Twitter handle, ShibaInuart, shares its expectations on once the beta phase is launched: "When the Shibarium Public Beta TestNet planned for deployment becomes active, workflows of key areas for those interacting with the blockchain environment will help evaluate the following: performance benchmarking, usability optimization, and architecture stabilization."
