"Particular strategy of adding validator," SHIB burns on Shibarium
A Telegram user and fan of Shibarium and its cryptocurrencies asked a question as to why Shibarium staking rewards have not yet been distributed, and also why there are still only 12 validators on the network, while their number was promised to expand to more than a hundred.
Shytoshi responded to that, saying that the SHIB team is using a "particular strategy" when adding validators in order to ensure the safety of the Shibarium network.

Per the lead developer, burning begins from $25,000 worth of BONE converted into SHIB in the contract. Since this is quite a large sum and constitutes 3,607,503,607 Shiba Inu, accumulating this amount of BONE make take "longer than many expect once again," Shytoshi clarified.
Kusama assured his followers that to overcome these issues, developers should keep working hard behind the scenes and take on new people in order to scale. However, they prefer to remain quiet and not to reveal their strategy completely to the community. Shytoshi also recommended the concerned author of the aforementioned questions check his recent message "for a hint to how this will change."
