What is Shiba Inu (SHIB)?

Shiba Inu is a cryptocurrency that gained global attention as a meme-inspired token, but it has grown into a broader ecosystem with real use cases. Often referred to as the “Dogecoin killer,” SHIB started as a community-driven project and quickly gained popularity due to its low price, large supply, and highly engaged user base.

Beyond trading, the Shiba Inu project now includes ShibaSwap (a decentralised exchange), NFT integrations, and plans for a layer-2 blockchain called Shibarium. While SHIB is still considered a high-risk investment, it represents how communities can build real momentum in the crypto space.

Because SHIB is affordable in small amounts and easy to transfer, it’s often used as a learning token or a speculative play. It’s available across most major wallets and exchanges, making it one of the most accessible assets in the market.
