Shibarium release again promised "very soon"

In a recent message from the pseudonymous lead developer of SHIB Shytoshi Kusama, he addressed the question that has again become a popular one, "wen Shibarium?" "Very soon," he responded in his traditional manner.

In a recent blog post, the SHIB leader announced that the developer team plans to release the "Worldpaper" for Shiba Inu. It will explain the concept of SHIB and Shibarium to the wide global community and include the description of various tokens (not limited to just SHIB, LEASH, BONE, SHI), DeFi platforms and many other products and services.

Kusama also spread the word about Shibcals, a firm that is making a "real world implementation" of SHIB in the form of SHIB-themed hoodies, other clothing and merchandise.

Kusama also several times mentioned that once Shibarium is up and running, he will step away, since his position will no longer be necessary for the community. This statement sparked heated discussions and debates on crypto Twitter and in the official Shibarium Telegram channel.
