Shiba Inu : The Way Forward
Shiba Inu announced a gaming partnership with Australia-based Playside Games in a strategic work-for-hire contract. However, the newly signed partnership runs on a fixed-price, milestone-based agreement to develop a multiplayer Collectable Card Game.
PlaySide will provide production, design, engineering, art, user interface and experience development services to Shiba Inu Games. In addition, Playside has delivered games on four different platforms. They include mobile, virtual reality, augmented reality, and the PC.
Also, ShibaNet is an upcoming addition to the Shiba Inu ecosystem. ShibaNet is a decentralized marketplace that allows users to buy, sell, and trade goods using the in-house Shiba Inu ecosystem. Above all, Shytoshi Kusama, the project lead of SHIB spoke about ShibaNet in his Medium blog in July 2021.
Firstly, the best thing about ShibaNet is that it will run on the Shibarium Layer-2. Secondly, it allows users to skip the high Ethereum gas fees that are currently plaguing the cryptocurrency payments sector. Thirdly, this is just the surface of ShibaNet and the team did not reveal complete details about it.
SHIB is displaying bullish sentiments and analysts believe it could delete a zero by the end of the year. Also, a Robinhood listing can propel its price to new highs and reward investors handsomely. In conclusion, early investors will soon see their profits rise tenfold in the coming months. Most importantly, SHIB could reward investors who hold on to the long term.
At the time of publishing, Shiba Inu was trading at $0.00003493 and is up +1.92% in the 23-hours day trade.
