Shiba Inu’s (SHIB) Main Developer Clears Up New Token Rumors
Shytoshi Kusama, lead developer of the cryptocurrency project Shiba Inu (SHIB), recently cleared up rumors surrounding a new token, Paw (PAW). He officially distanced himself from the copycat token and warned the SHIB Army about “wolves in Shib’s clothing”.
Kusama Shares Crypto Donation Details for Turkey and Syria
Following the devastating earthquake in Kahramanmaras, Turkey and Syria have been struggling to cope with medical aid needs and emergency accommodation. To help out those in need, Kusama shared a donation link that supports BEP20, Avalanche, and ERC-20 transfers on Ethereum’s network—which is suitable for SHIB transfers as well.
DefiKraken Falsely Endorses Unrelated Token
At one point during this saga DefiKraken falsely endorsed an unrelated token as part of Shiba Inu’s ecosystem—underscoring the need to be careful when dealing with such matters.
Launch Date of Shibarium Remains Uncertain
As many were expecting a Valentine’s Day launch of the long awaited Layer-2 solution for Shiba Inu—known as Shibarium—it seems that it was only rumor or speculation at best. Henceforth, members of the SHIB Army are being asked to remain patient until an official announcement is made by Kusama or other developers associated with SHIB.
Final Words
The community should not let disappointment overshadow their celebration of love and romance on Valentine’s Day despite any delays concerning SHIB projects. With cautionary messages coming directly from its developers like Kusama himself—the SHIB Army can keep their eyes open while standing strong against any malicious attempts to disrupt them.
