About Shiba Inu and SHIB coin
Shiba Inu is a meme coin that hopes to become a better version of Dogecoin and create utility for its holders by embracing decentralized finance (DeFi). The coin was introduced in 2021 as Dogecoin was gaining popularity. Since then, the developers have launched other coins known as $LEASH and $BONE and also introduced a swapping platform.
Consequently, SHIB has become one of the most popular meme coins in the world. At the time of writing in March, it was trading at $0.000027, bringing its market cap to $15 billion. As a result, it is the 15th biggest cryptocurrency in the world and is a few points below Dogecoin. It has a total supply cap of 1,000,000,000,000,000 coins. This makes it the biggest Dogecoin killer, with the others being Floki Inu, Baby Doge, and Dogelon Mars.
