About Shiba Inu
The "Dogecoin killer" — the largest community-driven meme coin ecosystem.
Shiba Inu (SHIB) is an Ethereum-based meme token launched anonymously in August 2020, inspired by the Shiba Inu dog breed. It was initially distributed for free and gained massive popularity in 2021. The Shiba Inu ecosystem has expanded beyond the original token to include a DEX (ShibaSwap), a layer-2 network (Shibarium), and a complementary ecosystem token (BONE).
SHIB is used for trading, tipping, and as a community reward token within the Shiba Inu ecosystem. Shibarium (the layer-2 chain) was launched in 2023 to provide lower-cost transactions for SHIB ecosystem applications. A limited number of merchants and crypto-payment platforms accept SHIB directly.
