In late December 2021, non-custodial crypto payments processor NOWPayments announced its plans to add an optional feature that will allow merchants to burn Shiba Inu (SHIB) tokens in 2022.
The Amsterdam-headquartered company said that it will be burning 3% of its "relationshib" with the SHIB community.
On Jan. 24, the official Twitter account of the Shiba Inu ecosystem announced its first special surprise for the year, the SHIBerse. Earlier, SHIB had hinted at something big brewing for its ecosystem through its tweets. It even went as far as posting a blurred version of the cartoonish picture of a Shiba Inu dog holding a hammer in its teeth in the middle of a forest to tease the community.
"Shiberse" hopes to offer the Shiba Inu community and the Metaverse space "an immersive experience," the team says. Metaverse is a term that denotes the convergence of digital and physical worlds and remains one of the hottest buzzwords in tech. Bloomberg Intelligence predicts that the Metaverse market could eventually reach $800 billion.
