Shiba Inu SHIB/USD is making waves with impressive gains, thanks to strengthening community developments and a surge in daily transactions, with positive momentum setting the stage for a bullish run ahead of the highly anticipated Bitcoin Halving event.
What Happened: Ryoshi Network in an April 15 post on X announced a decentralized building initiative for Shiba Inu, emphasizing its goal to become a community-driven L2 ecosystem that utilizes SHIB as gas.
This move aims to provide the Shib army with access to a range of DeFi utilities. The network stated, “We need a viable mainnet where projects can deploy, and users can participate.”
In another development, Shiba Inu has joined the Web3 Summit Dubai as a sponsor. The event is expected to attract more than 3,000 attendees and will feature nearly 100 distinguished speakers.
Lucie, Shiba Inu’s investor and marketing lead, shared her new personal policy for investing in Shibarium projects. She highlighted several key factors to consider, such as project burn rates, plans to build in the Metaverse, the use of Leash, and updates on BONE.
According to U.Today, citing data from IntoTheBlock, Shiba Inu’s large holders saw a significant inflow of 2.85 trillion tokens in just 24 hours as of April 14.
