Shiba Inu’s Shibarium Finally Waking up in DeFi

As a seasoned analyst with over two decades of experience in the ever-evolving crypto market, I have seen my fair share of projects that promise much but deliver little. However, Shiba Inu (SHIB) is one project that has consistently intrigued me, not just for its meme-inspired origins, but for its relentless pursuit of innovation and growth.


Shiba Inu (SHIB), in its pursuit for expansion, is currently focusing on developing its Decentralized Finance (DeFi) platform. Last year, they introduced Shibarium, and a significant expectation was that it would keep growing in order to rival other layer-2 scaling solutions like Arbitrum.

Despite moving at a moderate pace, Shibarium appears to be hinting at a significant development in its Decentralized Finance (DeFi) realm.

Shibarium DeFi boost

According to DeFiLlama’s data, the current total value locked in Shibarium’s DeFi sector stands at approximately $4.37 million. Notably, this figure surpassed its previous all-time high of $4.81 million.

Although it may seem modest, this figure represents a substantial increase compared to the prior peak of $3.9 million reached in March. The decrease in Total Value Locked (TVL) indicates that the retail sector holds considerable influence in the decentralized finance (DeFi) realm of Shibarium.

The largest Decentralized Application (DApp) currently is ShibaSwap, boasting a locked value of approximately $2.22 million. Notably, the recently introduced K9 Finance DAO has taken the second spot, surpassing more established platforms such as Woofswap, CherrySwap, and MARSWAP.

The surge in Shibarium’s recent statistics suggests a renewed belief that this L2 scaling solution could potentially lead as the primary solution in the coming future.

Impact on Shiba Inu

Over the last month, Shiba Inu has been holding steady within a narrow price band, thanks to its consistent trading pattern. However, despite the influence of major investors or whales, the price of SHIB has seen a slight decrease, falling by 3.58% in the past day to reach $0.00001706.

The coin has a history of bouncing back following significant declines, and this recent pattern could possibly mirror past trends. Given the Shiba Inu team’s consistent promise of updates on the blockchain, members of the community anticipate that SHIB‘s usefulness will keep expanding, potentially influencing its price in the long run.

Currently, our efforts are centered around restoring balance to the token following its significant sell-off and reigniting key indicators such as the burn rate once more.
