$SHIB The team developing the Shibarium network - the layer two solution for the Shiba Inu project - has set a timeline for releasing a new update focused on privacy. Could this support expectations for the rising price of Shiba Inu (SHIB) and reflect the recent downward trend?

According to the latest roadmap, the Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE) technology is scheduled to be fully implemented on the Shibarium network during the first half of 2026.

The Zama platform, which will implement this fix, stated that this will make transactions of Shiba Inu (SHIB) and Bone (BONE) anonymous, and it will work to protect the data in smart contracts to prevent security exploitation.

It is worth noting that earlier this year, the Shibarium network was subjected to a cyber attack that resulted in the theft of over $4 million from the protocol. After several unsuccessful attempts to communicate with the hacker, the Shiba Inu team reported that they refused to accept a reward for the return of the funds, which undermined the project's credibility and prompted developers to improve the architecture of its layer two solution.

Expectations for the price of Shiba Inu (SHIB): the price reaches the resistance of the main trend line, what’s next?

Shiba Inu (SHIB) has experienced a period of consolidation around a key resistance level over the last 24 hours, with trading volumes increasing by 43%.

The price of Shiba Inu (SHIB) has just reached the upper edge of a descending channel that has characterized price movement since mid-December last year, shortly after the network bridge exploitation incident. Although rejection indicators have appeared at this level, stability above the $0.0000090 level could completely change the course of events and allow the coin to attempt a rebound towards $0.000010 in the near term. However, if it fails to maintain this level, the price faces the risk of retreating to $0.0000080.

As momentum in the meme coin market increases, the focus is shifting towards new high-potential listings that are entering the early adoption phase.
