- Shibarium development could be a focus of Shytoshi Kusama’s Middle East trip, addressing Ethereum scalability.
Shytoshi Kusama, the lead developer of Shiba Inu (SHIB), has ignited excitement within the crypto community following his recent trip to the Middle East. His social media post, expressing admiration for the region’s culture and hinting at potential collaborations, has sparked speculation about significant developments for the meme coin.
On my way out the Middle East and it has been an incredible time meeting and understanding the culture of my cousins. #love #inshallah #shibarmystrong— Shytoshi Kusama™ (@ShytoshiKusama) June 4, 2024
This message has led to discussion among the Shib Army about potential partnerships or new use cases for Shiba Inu in the Middle East.
Kusama’s reference to “cousins” and the use of the Arabic phrase “inshallah” (God willing) suggest a possible connection with the Middle Eastern crypto community. This has led to conjecture about partnerships with regional exchanges, investment firms, or government entities. However, no official announcements have been made.
Moreover, Kusama’s trip could relate to the ongoing development of Shibarium, the layer 2 scaling solution for Shiba Inu. Shibarium aims to address the scalability issues faced by the Ethereum network upon which SHIB is currently built. This advancement could mark a significant step in Shiba Inu’s technological advancement.
Shytoshi and the Shiba Inu development team’s participation in Token2049 in Dubai earlier this year may have set the stage for this recent visit. The conference, a major international gathering for the crypto and blockchain industry, offered a platform for networking, deal-making, and forging strategic partnerships.
