- Shiba Inu Launches Shib Alpha Layer, the new framework that enables developers to deploy custom rollups on Shibarium within minutes.
- TREAT Token Utility Expands where developers must stake TREAT tokens to activate rollups, giving them control while reducing network congestion.
- Lead developer Kusama revealed plans for an AI-focused whitepaper, signaling a broader tech strategy for the Shiba Inu ecosystem.
The Shiba Inu ecosystem made headlines this week with two major developments. Lead developer Shytoshi Kusama ended a two-week silence, returning to the public spotlight with a teaser about a highly anticipated whitepaper. According to Kusama, the upcoming paper will focus on artificial intelligence and its role in the Shiba Inu ecosystem.
His comeback followed his third disappearance from the community this year. The post revealed plans to release an AI-focused whitepaper soon. Furthermore, this update came just hours before fellow developer Kaal Dhairya announced the beta launch of Shib Alpha Layer. The rollout aims to provide a powerful framework for developing custom rollups on Shibarium.
Shib Alpha Layer Debuts to Boost Custom Rollups on Shibarium
The Shiba Inu team made Shib Alpha Layer available this week. Shib Alpha Layer lets developers launch custom rollups in minutes. The team designed it for projects that need scalability and customization. Furthermore, Shib Alpha Layer operates on Shibarium’s infrastructure.
It offers a flexible environment for developing dApps, DeFi platforms, and non-fungible tokens. The rollout lets teams select their preferred settings. It also lets them activate their rollup on Shibarium quickly. The new framework settles transactions directly on Shibarium’s network. It aims to cut back on congestion and boost throughput.
TREAT Tokens Power Shib Alpha Layer Rollout
To activate Shib Alpha Layer, developers need TREAT tokens. According to the team, TREAT plays a key role in the rollout process. It lets projects launch and manage their custom chains on Shibarium. The team says TREAT is key to the rollout process since:
- It allows projects to launch and manage custom chains on Shibarium.
- TREAT can be staked to activate a rollup.
- If a rollup is paused or removed, the staked tokens can be withdrawn.
- Shib Alpha Layer gives developers control over their ecosystem.
- It’s designed to streamline rollout and reduce bottlenecks.
- The framework helps innovators deploy projects quickly.
Kusama Teases AI Vision as Shiba Inu Expands Ecosystem Strategy
Kusama made it clear in his post that a bigger story is developing by stating that the team has been developing this for months. According to him, this is part of a much larger strategy. The lead developer explained that an AI-focused whitepaper is on the way.
Furthermore, this paper will outline Shiba Inu’s view on artificial intelligence. It will also highlight the ecosystem’s future plans. His announcement came just after Shib Alpha Layer’s rollout. The team described this move as a key piece of their ongoing expansion.
