The project’s official X account, @Shibtoken, informed the community that the Shibarium RPC listing has been refreshed in the ethereum-lists/chains registry, with updated connection details now live on Chainlist.

Community-Driven Fix for Outdated RPC Endpoints
The update was spearheaded by long-time Shiba Inu community contributor Mazrael, who submitted a GitHub Pull Request directing the registry to the correct Shibarium RPC endpoint. The pull request, identified as PR #8699, has officially been merged into ethereum-lists/chains. Chainlist serves as a widely adopted chain registry for wallets and Web3 infrastructure, making this correction essential for seamless network connectivity.
The fix addresses a gap dating back to late 2025, when Shibarium migrated its public RPC to a new, more stable, and decentralized infrastructure. The old public RPC endpoints were shut down during that migration, but the change was never reflected in the ethereum-lists/chains registry, leaving the listed endpoint unresolved until now.
Shibariumscan Reindexing Underway
In a related development, the Shibarium block explorer Shibariumscan reports an ongoing chain reindexing process. As of the latest update, approximately 52% of blocks have been indexed, indicating progress toward full explorer functionality.
Quiet Infrastructure Upgrade Moves Key Properties to Cloudflare
Separately, Mazrael disclosed a broader infrastructure upgrade executed on September 12, 2026. The official shib.io website, the ShibaSwap interface, and the project’s documentation portal at doc.shib.io have all been migrated to Cloudflare, with IPv6 support enabled across both properties. The legacy hosting provider has been retired.
Regarding the migration progress, Mazrael stated:
Env rebuild is further along than it looks from the outside.
Senate Set for Procedural Vote on Digital Asset Legislation
In a separate market development, the U.S. Senate is scheduled to hold a procedural vote on Tuesday on the Clarity Act. The legislation proposes dividing oversight of digital assets between the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC). Advancing the bill requires a 60-vote threshold.
