Initial Instructions for Giveaway

Though Lucie did not give the exact start date in her tweet, she gave some instructions to the community in preparation. She urged the community to follow certain Shiba Inu dev team accounts including lead dev Shytoshi Kusama, and Kaal Dhairya.

Moreover, she also asked the community to follow two accounts linked to the Shiba Inu ecosystem, TREAT token and Shibarium Updates. Ultimately, she encouraged the community to stay alert and check for subsequent updates because it would be “huge.”

Community Questions Choice of Token

Meanwhile, the announcement was met with much optimism from the community. Members rallied with excitement expressing their readiness for the kickoff.

However, some members questioned the choice of the token, asking why BONE was used instead of Shiba Inu.

Why not #shib instead of bone?

While there was no clear response to this question by the Shiba Inu team, it is assumed that BONE was strategically selected as a means of promotion to increase the adoption of the coin.
