Shiba Inu’s layer-2 blockchain, Shibarium, has defied recent concerns about declining activity with a meteoric rise in user engagement. Data from Shibariumscan shows a staggering 3,436% increase in new accounts on June 4th, a surge that has reignited excitement within the Shiba Inu community. This newfound interest coincides with an 80% jump in transaction volume, suggesting a period of explosive growth for Shibarium.
While traditionally, increased network activity foreshadows price movements in associated tokens, the recent price rise of Shiba Inu’s meme-coin, SHIB (up 5%), appears to have triggered this surge in user engagement on Shibarium. With bulls eyeing the coveted $0.001 price point for SHIB, this user influx could be a sign of growing anticipation.
Shibaswap’s Migration to Shibarium Expands DeFi Horizons
Adding fuel to the fire, the Shiba Inu development team recently announced the migration of Shibaswap, its decentralized exchange (DEX), to the Shibarium network. This move, revealed by lead developer Shytoshi Kusama, empowers users with the flexibility to access Shibaswap on both Ethereum and Shibarium.
Kusama hailed the migration as a “redesigned beating heart” for Shibarium, paving the way for a vibrant community token ecosystem. Shibaswap now offers users a unique platform to “find, swap, and interact” with these community tokens within the Shibarium environment.

Enhanced Functionality and Benefits for Liquidity Providers
This migration comes with a suite of improved functionalities for Shibaswap. Users can expect a revamped dashboard alongside streamlined processes for deposits, staking, liquidity provision, and withdrawals. Notably, Kusama emphasized that this is just the beginning, with further updates planned for the future.
The Shibarium integration also offers distinct advantages. Notably, a portion of transaction fees will be used to bolster the value of liquidity provider (LP) tokens involved in swaps. This strategy, according to the SHIB team, aims to benefit the entire yield farming community by increasing the value of LP tokens.
Kusama’s closing remarks encouraged community members to explore the new Shibaswap platform and urged existing Shibarium tokens to make the transition. With Shibarium experiencing a user boom and Shibaswap offering a more robust DeFi experience, the future of the Shiba Inu ecosystem appears bright.
