Shiba Inu's founder, Shytoshi Kusama, has announced three new partnerships in the works for the project, just days before the launch of its layer-2 scalability upgrade, Shibarium. The upgrade is expected to improve the Shiba Inu blockchain's performance and go live between August 15th and 16th. Kusama also teased a new social media initiative, possibly taking aim at Elon Musk and X, Twitter's recent rebrand. With SHIB's price rising more than 20% in the past week, the community remains optimistic about the project's future developments. 🚀
