Shiba Inu (SHIB) cryptocurrency is an Ethereum-based token that was launched in August 2020 and has quickly become one of the most popular meme coins. Inspired by the success of Dogecoin, Shiba Inu stands out for its dedicated community and its ambition to become more than just a joke. The project offers several features, including a decentralized exchange called ShibaSwap, as well as an ecosystem that includes other tokens like LEASH and BONE. While SHIB initially gained popularity through speculation and virality on social media, it is now working to develop real-world use cases, particularly in the decentralized finance (DeFi) and NFT sectors. However, like many cryptocurrencies, its price is volatile and remains subject to market fluctuations and speculation.
