FUD surrounds Shibarium

The Shiba Inu project is a decentralized ecosystem that aims to offer users a platform to transact, stake, and participate in governance using the SHIB token. The burn rate of a cryptocurrency is the rate at which tokens are removed from circulation through burning. In the case of SHIB, tokens are burned through the ShibaSwap platform, which is a decentralized exchange built on the Ethereum blockchain.

Meanwhile, Shiabrium Beta had been made live on 11 March 2023. The much-awaited launch had been responsible for the recent spiking in the price of Shiba Inu, too. There has been a FUD surrounding the Shibarium blockchain that the developers of Shiba Inu have replicated Rinia, a separate project. These accusations contributed to the drop in prices of Shiba Inu a couple of days back.
