Reports are coming that Robinhood may list Shiba Inu sometime in January 2022 or during the first quarter of 2022.

The Shiba Inu News Twitter handle, @ShibReports, was the first to reveal the Robinhood insider information. They tweeted that Robin hood will list SHIB in January 2022 or Q1.

The main reason for SHIB’s delayed listing on Robinhood is the launch of Robinhood wallet, Unless Robinhood launches their wallets it will wait and may not announce SHIB listing. Robinhood wallet program is in testing face, it will launch its wallets in the first quarter of 2022 after introducing Robinhood wallets, there are more than 100% chances that Robinhood will add SHIB so Robinhood’s December 2021 listing of SHIB is out of the question.

A source revealed that a Robinhood team held a meeting on the listing of Shiba Inu at 3:00 p.m. yesterday. The discussion was about getting SHIB on board along with 2-3 other cryptocurrencies.

BREAKING: While @RobinhoodApp has not made any official announcement about listing $SHIB, we’re told by an insider that they’re having an executive meeting at 3pm ET today to discuss the “possibility” of listing #SHIB as well as 2-3 other crypto in January.

(Please stay tuned)

Shiba Report further writes:

“MORE: The insider we talked to at @RobinhoodApp is a C-suite-level executive. He told us that listing $SHIB this month (December) simply isn’t realistic. But he acknowledged that January and Q1 are a strong possibility. They continue to see a ton of buzz, especially from a petition.”

The company noted that even though Shiba Inu (SHIB) started as a meme, the strong SHIBArmy along with the response from AMC and Newegg had moved SHIB to the top of the list of coins to add. The increased popularity puts SHIB in the top #15 since tracking from zero in May by market capitalization on CoinMarketCap just in time for holiday spending.

“The Shiba Inu community is passionate about its coin and serious about giving those consumers places to spend SHIB,” Stephen Pair, CEO of BitPay, said. “BitPay believes that the more community involvement from coin holders supports awareness and adoption helping to move the blockchain industry to pave the way for blockchain payments to disrupt the way consumers and businesses receive and spend funds.”

Formerly, on November 16, Adam Aron, CEO of AMCTheatres, confirmed that Bitpay has decided to support Shiba Inu specifically because he asked, so AMC could take Shiba Inu for online payments of movie tickets and concessions.

Further, he noted that Bitpay could take 60-120 days to add support for Shiba Inu (SHIB) and  AMC would be the first Bitpay client to accept Shiba Inu.

Attention #SHIBArmy: Our friends @Bitpay decided to support Shiba Inu specifically because I asked, so AMC can take Shiba Inu for online payments of movie tickets and concessions. @AMCTheatres to be the first @bitpay client to accept Shiba Inu. Timing 60-120 days. This is a WOW! pic.twitter.com/F54i22hHDv
