Yuri MolchanShiba Inu's LEASH coin boasts new listing
The official account of SHIB has shared a tweet with the news that one of the Shibarium tokens, Doge Killer (LEASH), has now been listed on the StealthEX custody-free exchange based in the Cayman Islands.
The coin is now changing hands at $530, rising almost 10% in the last 24 hours. Less than a month ago, the coin was also listed on a major exchange Bitrue.
In one of his recent blog posts, the lead developer of SHIB Shytoshi Kusama described LEASH as a token that "governs the protection of the community and offers exclusivity as well."
LEASH is part of the Shibarium trifecta, which also includes Shiba Inu (SHIB), Bone ShibaSwap (BONE). While SHIB is the main token of the ecosystem, BONE is the governance token of the ShibaSwap DEX and the coin used for paying gas fees on the Shibarium Layer-2 blockchain.
