What Can We Expect From Shiba Lands?
Dubbed as the “Shiberse”, the metaverse property development will serve as the Shiba Inu ecosystem’s arm in the virtual domain. Shiba Lands and its unique auction system will be a major component of the Shibverse. The Shiberse competes with other metaverse ecosystems such as Decentraland, Sandbox, Gala Games, and Axie Infinity. Despite being new to the metaverse, has already piqued investors’ interest.

While Shiba Inu regained its throne yesterday, market movements reduced whale holdings to $1.7 billion.

At the time of publication, the token was trading at $0.000033.Related Reading | Shiba Inu Barks At Bears With 25% Gains, But Social Media Continues To Trend Dogecoin
