SHIB Developer Team Confirms Gas Fee Token
Moreover, the developer team cleared up the rumors that Shibarium will include more than one gas fee token. Bone ShibaSwap (BONE) is the only cryptocurrency to be used for transaction fees. Ultimately, the developer team reassured that “No other tokens will be necessary to operate within the protocol.”
Right after the message, Bone ShibaSwap catapulted by a whopping 14.5%. Moreover, the gas fee token for Shibarium is having a great month, with 37.5% gains in the last 30 days. In addition, the bullish trend resulted in BONE reclaiming its key support line at $1. Ultimately, BONE posted its best result since November 8th, 2022, as the gas fee token for Shiba Inu’s Layer-2 solution is very popular among top Ethereum (ETH) whales. However, Bone ShibaSwap (BONE) was not the only token to benefit from the developments.
This is to confirm and validate, from us, the official source, that BONE is and remains the only token selected for gas fees and use. No other tokens will be necessary to operate within the protocol.3/6— Shibarium Network (@ShibariumNet) January 4, 2023
Shiba Inu Gains Traction With Accelerated Burn Rate
The primary token of the Shiba Inu Ecosystem, SHIB, also recorded a 3.9% upsurge in the last 24 hours. This comes along with the news that parts of Shibarium’s code were made public on GitHub. Developers are working with xFund to release the Shibarium Beta as soon as possible.
The development has revived the SHIB Army’s willingness to burn the canine tokens to maintain Shiba Inu’s market price. According to Shibburn, the SHIB burn rate spiked by 33.53% in the last 24 hours, with 90 million tokens already set aflame.
At press time, the #17 ranked cryptocurrency is changing hands at $0.00000845, according to CoinGecko. The canine crypto posted its best result in the last two weeks. In the long run, crypto investors expect to see Shiba Inu thriving in 2023, on the condition that Shibarium’s launch will go smoothly and without significant delays.
