Shibarium’s native testnet, Puppynet, has been making a lot of noise of late. As reported recently, the test network processed more than 1 million transactions with the assistance of more than 200k unique wallets. Interestingly, there has been a corresponding network growth on the main Shiba Inu network as well. The latest data from IntoTheBlock revealed that the number of new and active addresses on the network increased by 5.29% and 7.55% respectively over the past week. Basically, an address is considered to be active when it becomes a direct participant in a successful transaction. New addresses, on the other hand, gauge the number of fresh entrants into the ecosystem.
