## What Is Kishu Inu (KISHU)?

Kishu Inu (KISHU) is a dog-based meme cryptocurrency that has selected the ‘Kishu’ dog breed as its mascot for its brand. The creators of KISHU do not hide that they were inspired by [Dogecoin (DOGE)](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/dogecoin/), which was launched in 2013 and has since gained worldwide success and popularity.

The mission of Kishu Inu is to take meme coins to another level. The team aims to turn the project into something more than just a meme or a joke, and most importantly, to empower the KISHU token with the qualities of a real long-standing currency. The main competitive difference from comparable coins is that Kishu Inu is completely community-owned: the developers do not reserve tokens for the team, but rely on donations.

Kishu Inu is a decentralized transactional network with a community focus, meaning that all decisions are made by the community. The project aims to bring certain next-generation concepts into the mainstream like non-fungible tokens, decentralized finance and participation rewards.

The dog-themed token was launched on April 17, 2021. Supporters of the digital asset and crypto enthusiasts have already named Kishu as Doge's older brother. Interest in the currency was also fueled by a series of billboards promoting the coin in New York’s Times Square.

Who Are the Founders of Kishu Inu?

Kishu Inu (KISHU) was launched in spring 2021 by an anonymous development team with a sincere interest in meme coins like Dogecoin (DOGE) in particular. However, especially attentive followers can get more information and hints on [Twitter](https://twitter.com/InuKishu). Their official channel is @InuKishu.

What Makes Kishu Inu Unique?

The Kishu Inu ecosystem consists of five core elements: the KISHU token, Kishu Swap, Kishu Crate, Kishu Paw Print, and Kishu Swag.

Kishu Swap is a decentralized exchange ([DEX](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/decentralized-exchange-dex)) for swapping [ERC-20](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/erc-20) tokens with customizable functionality. Kishu Swap is powered by Uniswap, one of the largest and most secure DEX platforms by global standards.

Kishu Crate is the [NFT](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/non-fungible-token) marketplace of the Kishu Inu community where users can stake KISHU tokens in exchange for exclusive rewards and unique digital items. Collectibles themselves are part of the Kishu Inu community and are awarded out of the staking pool. Artists can participate in regular contests on the platform, where the community votes and selects artwork for Kishu Crate.

Kishu Paw Print is an app for keeping track of KISHU token statistics. Indicators include: prizes and rewards related to KISHU, current token valuations, total wallet balance, price charts, and so on.

Kishu Swag is a merchandise store that is operated by a transparent non-profit organization that has no owners or shareholders. Sales and proceeds directly support the project, and are used to develop the Kishu Inu platform & community.
