Is Shiba Inu Forgetting About BONE?
The launch of TREAT, a new token in the Shiba Inu ecosystem, has sparked excitement but also intense controversy. While some community members celebrated the new release, others were concerned that the project’s focus was shifting away from BONE. What is going on here and what will happen?
TREAT is online, what about BONE?
The launch of TREAT is impressive. With listings on platforms like KuCoin, Bitget, and Gate.io, it’s clear that the Shiba Inu team has big plans for the token. Airdrops also allow users to participate. Everything looks great, but not quite.
Some community members raised red flags that BONE wasn’t getting the attention it deserved. Snow, an outspoken member of the community, said the team should work equally hard to get BONE listed on top exchanges. They are not alone. The community understands that TREAT, BONE, and Shibarium all depend on each other. Ignoring one person can hurt everyone. This isn’t just a minor argument, either. For some, it’s a question of fairness and priorities.
Yayoi Kusama’s response to BONE
Shiba Inu spokesperson Shintoshi Kusama has made his position clear. He has not forgotten BONE. in his words“Do you think I’m going to toil away for years and forget any part of the system?” It’s a bold claim, but it shows he understands the community’s concerns.
BONE plays a key role as both the governance token and Shibarium’s Gas token. It is the backbone of the ecosystem. Yayoi Kusama assured everyone that no coins are on hold.
And then there’s misinformation floating around. There are some rumors that BONE can be minted, which scares people. Kusama quickly shut down the content, calling it baseless. Developer Kaal Dhairya also stepped in to confirm that BONE’s contract is immutable — basically, no one can mess with it.
What’s next for Shiba Inu?
It seems that the Shiba Inu team is currently trying to find a balance. TREAT may be taking the spotlight, but BONE is still part of the plan. Whether the community feels reassured remains to be seen. This is a tricky situation. When there are multiple tokens in an ecosystem, keeping everyone happy is nearly impossible. But if Kusama and his team can pull it off, it will be a win for the entire Shiba Inu community.
