  • Shibarium Beta was announced by SHIB developers last week.
  • Shiba Inu (SHIB) has seen constant growth in total wallet count.
  • Transaction volume for SHIB has doubled following the news.

Shiba Inu’s (SHIB) main developer, Shytoshi Kusama, dropped another riddle for the SHIB Army to solve. The mysterious leading developer changed his Twitter profile bio to “Quickly learning to play the flute before putting Shibarium in a heart shaped box with a bow.” Soon after, Crypto Twitter speculated on what Mr. Kusama means.

Furthermore, crypto influencer Crypto Bezos contemplates that “Shibarium in a heart shaped box with a bow” is likely a reference to the upcoming Valentine’s Day on February 14th, 2023. This comes just a week after a piece of Shibarium’s code was shared on GitHub, while the devs confirmed Shibarium Beta would drop in the coming days.

Indeed, the developer team announced at the beginning of the New Year that Bone ShibaSwap (BONE) is going to be the only gas fee token on the soon-to-be-launched Layer-2 solution for Shiba Inu’s (SHIB) Ecosystem.

At press time, #15 ranked Shiba Inu (SHIB), the main token of the system, is changing hands at $0.00001149, according to CoinGecko. The canine token managed to grow 3.7% in the last 24 hours, completing the second green week in a row with 21.1% gains in the last 7 days.

On the other hand, Bone ShibaSwap (BONE) ranks just outside the TOP 100 by global market cap. At press time, the #111 ranked Shiba Inu’s $BONE trades at $1.44, according to CoinGecko. Marking an impressive 8.8% growth in the last 24 hours, the gas fee token for Shibarium is flourishing with 80% gains in the last 30 days. Naturally, the gas fee token is expected to grow further if the Layer-2 solution is smoothly launched without any more delays.
