The world recently experienced a major internet outage, affecting major banks and other networks. This got the lead developer of Shiba Inu (SHIB), Shytoshi Kusama, thinking about the future of online systems.
Decentralized Systems: The Future?
Kusama believes that the outage highlights the need for a decentralized web3 operating system. He argues that a system not reliant on a single authority would be more resilient to these kinds of disruptions.
“The world was crippled by one simple update,” he said on X (formerly Twitter). “We need a new operating system, one powered by web3 technologies, designed to handle these kinds of events.”
Shiba Inu: Building for the Future
Kusama also mentioned that the Shiba Inu team has been working on a system designed to withstand global outages. They believe that their work will be crucial in the future of online infrastructure.
“Our community has been building systems for this very reason,” he said. “We will lead the conversation about why web3 is the future and the Shiba Inu ecosystem is the operating system of that future.”
