Shiba Inu SHIB

Community token ecosystem.

SHIB is an Ethereum-origin token in the Shiba Inu ecosystem. It is separate from Dogecoin and from other Shiba Inu tokens.

What is Shiba Inu?

Shiba Inu began as a meme-inspired token project. SHIB was created on Ethereum, and the wider ecosystem includes applications and other tokens. A shared brand name does not mean that those tokens have the same role.

Brand recognition does not make a token safe or guarantee demand. Verify the asset and network rather than relying on a logo or ticker.
