In an exciting development for the Shiba Inu community, project team member and head developer, Shytoshi Kusamahas teased an upcoming game update designed specifically for SHIBArmy, while also sharing key information about the game. This news suggests that a big improvement in the Shiba Inu ecosystem is coming soon, with the goal of increasing participation and expanding the use of the SHIB coin.
Shiba Inu game will provide unique opportunities
Lucie, Shiba Inu team member and marketing leader. x.com/LucieSHIB/status/1803702230840738287″ target=”_blank” rel=”noopener nofollow”>shared the update on the x platform (formerly twitter) on Thursday in the words of Shytoshi Kusama. It is important to note that prior to this information from Kusama, Lucie had hinted at an imminent SHIB Eternity gamewhile expressing his enthusiasm and anticipation towards the initiative.
Lucie noted that holders of Shiboshis nft, a collection of 10,000 Shiba Inu pixel art characters, will be able to play and win in-game gifts for SHIB with their pieces. “Some people will earn enough to live on by renting out their Shiboshis, while others will enjoy the game and win by having fun,” she said.
Offering more details about the game, Kusama noted that once completed, the game will be licensed solely to the decentralized Shiba Inu team for use on the project's Layer 2 blockchain solution, Shibarium. The team's main goal is to integrate related decentralized aspects into the mobile version so that future updates can be made.
Furthermore, Kusama highlighted that while Shiba Inu Games is completely separate from this activity, it will present special opportunities and value for the project's main tokens, such as SHIB, LEASH, and BONE.
He also highlighted the potential SHIB and LEASH burns, which will be carried out with funds obtained from Shiba Inu in-app purchases. “It truly is a win-win situation, and this is just a preview of what we have planned,” Kusama added.
While details are still being kept under wraps, the announcement has already generated a lot of discussion among SHIBArmy members, who are speculating about possible gameplay features and how they might work in the current environment. This move is seen as a component of a broader plan to capitalize on growing interest in blockchain-based gaming to improve the value and adoption of SHIB.
