According to U.Today, the Shiba Inu project is developing a new game, Shibarium, as part of its core goals to expand its ecosystem. The game, currently in its late developmental stages, was recently announced by lead developer Shytoshi Kusama. The game is designed for the entire Shiba Inu community and will be licensed solely to the decentralized team at Shiba Inu. This will allow for future enhancements with decentralized elements to be integrated into the mobile version of the game.
The developer is optimistic that the game will provide value to SHIB, LEASH, and BONE, the ecosystem’s core tokens. Although the exact model of the game remains undisclosed, it is expected to feature in-app purchases, suggesting a full economy surrounding the game. The game is also expected to boost the future valuation of SHIB, with revenue from in-app purchases incentivizing SHIB and LEASH burns.
It's important to note that the Shibarium game is distinct from other Shiba Inu games, but they will complement each other. The community is eagerly anticipating the official release of the game. Shiba Inu has been experiencing stagnant growth for a while, but the introduction of this game and other key ecosystem fundamentals could potentially stimulate demand for SHIB and fuel a price rally in the long term.
