Shiba Inu developer Kaal Dhairya broke X’s brief silence in his response to Zama CEO Dr. Rand Hindi.
A trusted execution environment (TEE) is a hardware-based, secure, isolated area within a device’s processor, which secretly tampers with data and code even from the operating system.
According to Hindi, this attack allows anyone with physical access to a Tee Node on the blockchain to access all its encrypted data. The above report includes four proof-of-concept attacks against existing mainnet chains, and anyone running a validator or full node can perform this attack for just $1,000.
The founder of Zama says the only “mitigation” is not allowing untrusted people not to run nodes or use cloud providers. This means that validators and RPC providers cannot run their own hardware, as a single malicious node will confuse everything. Hindi said the worst part is not the Tee Protocol, but the weakness of Intel companies, and there is a fixedness outside the scope of the threat model.
Shiba Inu developers weigh
Shiba Inu developer Kaal Dhairya responded to a post by Zama founder, “I tweeted that I would either decentralize (although it has nothing to do with Shibarium). That’s always a question.
It will either decentralize (although unrelated to shybarium) or not decentralize, but that is always a problem. But always fhe! https://t.co/en0wpgxdfv

Shiba Inu developers’ final social media X presence was on September 16th, so he broke his brief silence with X.
Zama, an open source encryption company, is building a fully homomorphic encryption (FHE) solution for blockchains, including Shiba Inu.
Shiba Inu will work with Zama to introduce a new privacy-centric network on top of the Shibarium blockchain. The network uses Full Isomorphic Encryption (FHE), a privacy tool that allows developers to use data on untrusted domains without requiring decryption.
