Shiba Inu dominance across all spheres
Despite being a mere meme token, Shiba Inu is conquering all decentralised milestones. Last month, the Shiba Inuâs team announced its exclusive venture, entering the metaverse. Shytoshi Kusama, the project lead at Shiba Inu games noted that to enable Altcoinsâ transition into the Metaverse via the development of Play-to-Earn (P2E) NFT games, they recruited William David Volk, former Vice President of Tech at Activision, one of the largest game developers in the US.

The development of the Metaverse will commence in the new year, and will be built in-house by the SHIB team. Shytoshi Kusama, also highlighted that their Metaverse approach would be quite different from Facebook.
Furthermore, SHIB has also established itself in the commercial industry with giants like AMC, which is the largest movie theatre chain in the United States, allowing Shiba Inu payments. Along with AMC, the electronic retail giant, Newegg recently took to Twitter to make the official announcement about accepting SHIB payments for its products.
