What is Shiba Inu, and why was it created?
Shiba Inu is one of the well-known meme coins, which are digital currencies tied to themes like the Shiba Inu dog. Shiba Inu is sometimes introduced as a satire or inside joke rather than a digital product with practical use. Ryoshi, a mysterious person or organization, developed Shiba Inu in August 2020. Shiba Inu is an Ethereum-based ERC-20 token, it is created on and hosted by the Ethereum blockchain, instead of its blockchain.
The value of SHIB is “primed and ready to eclipse the value of Dogecoin,” said Ryoshi, which is why it has the title “the Dogecoin killer.” Ryoshi continues by saying that even if SHIB never reaches $0.01, its popularity and usefulness will cause it to be proportionally more valuable than Dogecoin.

What is ShibaSwap? ShibaSwap 2.0 is on the way?
ShibaSwap is a decentralized exchange (DEX) that focuses primarily on the SHIB, LEASH, and BONE tokens, which are part of the Shiba Inu ecosystem. It has advanced significantly in the DeFi sector since its release in July 2021.
With the use of smart contracts and an automated market maker (AMM), the ShibaSwap exchange enables traders to swap assets automatically without the use of order books or exorbitant trading costs. It takes its cues from Uniswap, the original and most well-known platform. The key distinction, however, is the six-month lock restriction for 67% of cryptocurrency investments, which ensures maximum liquidity. Investors can make money by locking their assets.
Shiba Inu project leader Shytoshi Kusama recently alluded to the arrival of ShibaSwap 2.0 in a Telegram message, writing, “Ignore anything that says otherwise.”
