The crypto market is welcoming a slow but broad-based sell-off as key triggers that deepened the losses experienced since the start of the week appear to be wearing off. Shiba Inu (SHIB) is one of the mainstream tokens with a positive start to the day after picking up a 5% upsurge to peg its price at <a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/shiba-inu/#markets" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">$0.000008187</a> at the time of writing, per data from CoinMarketCap. 
Shiba Inu has seen the toughest of times following the <a href="https://u.today/shibarium-hits-rocky-road-as-transactions-get-stuck" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">slow start</a> of Shibarium, its Ethereum-based Layer 2 network, which initially went live on the mainnet last week. The Shibarium sentiment dampened the mood of market bulls, suppressing their actions such that the impact was felt on the price of the token over the trailing seven days. 
The SHIB price has dropped by more than 17% since Shibarium's troubled start; however, the omen is becoming positive following the latest update from Shytoshi Kusama, the lead developer of the project, who noted that proper testing is being done for the protocol. The Shibarium update, as <a href="https://u.today/shibarium-optimized-and-almost-ready-for-reopening-lead-developer-says" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">reported</a> earlier by U.Today, shows that the network is <a href="https://u.today/shibarium-back-online-block-minting-begins-report" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">producing blocks</a> in private mode and is almost ready for public launch.

The restart of Shibarium, though the date remains unannounced, has been filled with many expectations from the SHIB army. A lot of community members are anticipating that a host of new dApps can stir up a paradigm shift in the L2 arena and position Shiba Inu as a major contributor to the evolution of the Ethereum blockchain. 
With many Layer 2 protocols making their way into the Web3.0 ecosystem in the past few years, positioning one self as a major contender in a bid to bring unique value to every member of the community remains a key goal. After a failed start, the SHIB army is giving Shibarium a second chance to make it up across the board.
