Shiba Inu Lead Dev Ignites Buzz About New Partnership

Shiba Inu SHIB

While the Shiba Inu (SHIB) price has been stagnant since mid-November, the latest cryptic news from the meme cryptocurrency’s lead developer could provide fresh fuel for a rally. As the SHIB community observed, Shytoshi Kusama has once again updated his profile.

The Shiba Inu lead developer’s status now reads “We Are Not Alone.” In addition, Kusama’s current Twitter location says, “With a new fren…guess who?” The SHIB community is now puzzling over whether the mysterious announcement could have to do with a new partnership or the launch of Shibarium, a layer 2 solution.

As recently as Christmas Eve, Kusama tweeted that Shibarium will be released very soon, emphasizing the importance of next year for the project:

Therefore, probably the hottest bet for the mysterious announcement could be Shibarium. The Shiba Inu community is currently eagerly anticipating its launch. Shibarium is a layer-2 blockchain solution for Shiba Inu that targets Ethereum’s high transaction cost and low transaction speed problem.

The goal of the layer-2 blockchain is to lay the groundwork for building the Shiba Inu ecosystem, which will consist of a metaverse, a DEX, and blockchain games. Shibarium has been in development for quite some time.

Another developer, Trophias, put the brakes on the release recently. He said that Shibarium needs more time because the launch has to be done carefully.

On the other hand, the SHIB community speculates that the announcement could be a new partnership with another blockchain company. However, there are no conclusive indications as to who the company could be.
