K9 Officially Launches Native Token

It bears mentioning that the appointment of Kusama and Dhairya as advisors of K9 Finance comes a few hours after the team launched its native token, dubbed KNINE.

The token launched on Uniswap yesterday at 17:00 (UTC) after the team injected $100,000 liquidity into KNINE to facilitate its trading on the Ethereum-based decentralized exchange.

Shortly after its launch, KNINE embarked on a parabolic run that saw its price surge by 240% in hours. At the time of writing this line, KNINE was trading at $0.0001325, up 174% in the daily charts.

Its market cap is currently $10.55 million, and its 24-hour trading volume is $9.93 million. Since its launch on March 7, the token has already had 3,628 holders and 11,763 transfers.

The widespread adoption of KNINE can be attributed to the token’s affiliation with the Shiba Inu project. Consequently, Shiba Inu community members have been supportive of K9 and have joined other notable investors in acquiring the KNINE token.

While K9 Finance has launched its official token, its liquid staking platform is still in development, with plans to deploy the solution on Shibarium soon.

Like most Shibarium projects, the K9 liquid staking platform will contribute to the ongoing SHIB burn initiative and bolster the network’s total value locked (TVL).

It is worth noting that K9 Finance is an official partner of the Shibarium network. K9 became an official partner and validator of Shibarium last month, allowing users to stake and earn rewards in BONE.
