 <p>The <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/shibarium.html">Shibarium</a> launch is the next step for Shiba Inu and its developers to push SHIB as a leading blockchain, not just a popular meme coin. It joins an increasingly crowded blockchain landscape with over 50 competing blockchains looking to make a name for themselves. The network will utilize BONE, TREAT, SHIB, and LEASH tokens for applications built on the blockchain. As a result, the prices of these tokens may rise as demand increases.</p>
