Shiba Inu once again becomes the “top trend” on the most popular crypto data aggregating website CoinMarketCap (CMC). As reported earlier by The Crypto Basic, the development comes after the lead developer, Shytoshi Kusama, included the word “Shibarium” in his Twitter bio. This has led to speculation and anticipation among the community surrounding the launch of a new solution called Shibairum – Layer 2, which the team had previously announced but not yet released.
