- Shiba Inu confirms new infrastructure partnership and Alpha Layer upgrade powered by the TREAT token.
- Position DEX is set to launch on Shibarium, adding trading and farming features to the ecosystem.
Shiba Inu is moving forward with plans to expand its Shibarium network. According to an update from project’s marketing executive, Lucie, the project is working on new partnerships, building its core systems, and preparing to launch a decentralized finance (DeFi) platform that will support the next stage of development.
Shiba Inu Alpha Layer Update and Astra Nova Link
As one of the core Shiba Inu ecosystem leads, Lucie shared key updates this week in a post on X. She confirmed that Shytoshi Kusama hinted at a new partnership focused on improving infrastructure within Shibarium. While the full details are still unknown, development is already underway.
The Alpha Layer is also getting more attention. It will be powered by TREAT, a token that will serve both as a utility and reward asset across the network. The new layer is built to support apps with specific needs, stronger privacy, and more control for developers.

Lucie also pointed to a link between the Shiba Inu ecosystem and Astra Nova through the project Shib Fun. The partnership involves gaming elements, though full details were not shared. Still, it signals growing interest in adding real use cases to the Shibarium ecosystem beyond simple token trading.
The updates show that Shiba Inu is building a more substantial base for long-term projects. With each new phase, the team continues to add layers that make the network more useful.
Meanwhile, Shiba Inu is also starting to look into artificial intelligence. In an earlier update, CNF reported that Shytoshi Kusama shared a new Whitepaper discussing the use of AI in the project. It is a sign that SHIB is trying to move past the meme phase and work on more practical tools people can use.
Position DEX Set to Go Live on Shibarium
Lucie also revealed that Position DEX will launch on Shibarium by the end of July. The platform will offer trading, farming, and rewards for users. This is the latest in a series of steps aimed at building a working DeFi system on the network.
Similarly, Position DEX provides the Shiba Inu ecosystem with a decentralized exchange, introducing a new stream of activity and enabling direct user interaction with the network. It also opens the door for more DeFi tools to be added later.
The launch of Position DEX, the TREAT-powered Alpha Layer, and new partnerships are building fresh momentum for Shiba Inu. The focus is now clearly on expanding real-world use and providing the community with the tools they need.
Meanwhile, in respect to price outlook and market value, CNF reported that Shiba Inu is gaining momentum as it eyes a return to the top 10. SHIB recently broke key resistance, with rising investor interest pushing it toward $0.000015 after months of holding near $0.000012.
However, as of writing, the token was trading for $0.0000132, down 3.67% in 24 hours per Marketcap data.
