AboutWhat is Shiba Inu?
Shiba Inu is an Ethereum-based memecoin that markets itself as the "Dogecoin killer", launched with a quadrillion-token supply. The SHIB ecosystem has grown to include the ShibaSwap decentralised exchange, the Shibarium Layer 2 network, and additional tokens like LEASH and BONE.
HistoryOrigin & evolution
Shiba Inu was launched in August 2020 by an anonymous founder known as Ryoshi. Half of the initial token supply was famously sent to Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin, who later burned a large portion of his holdings in May 2021, instantly removing trillions of SHIB from circulation.
