Currently, the entire focus of the Shiba Inu community is on the upcoming launch of Shibarium Beta, and they are eagerly awaiting its release. SHIB developer Shytoshi Kusama continues to stoke the flames of speculation, recently hinting at the completion of an ongoing project. As reported earlier by The Crypto Basic, Kusama shared a tweet that included a link to the song “La Vedo Nera” by Dueuno, an Italian-based music duo, and mentioned that he and his team have been listening to it repeatedly while they “finish up.”
Kusama has been reluctant to provide a specific date for the release of the Shibarium beta, despite repeated requests from the Shiba Inu community. Instead, he updated his Twitter bio to refer to himself as the “official partner of wen and ambassador of soon.”
