- A DeFi Platform is set to be launched in the SHIB ecosystem to enable users and organizations to access a range of services, including reputation-based borrowing and undercollateralized loans.
- SHIB is steadily climbing up the price curve as an analyst predicts a whopping surge of 450% to hit $0.000081.
Shibarium Update, a popular ecosystem news channel on X, has hinted at an upcoming launch of a Decentralized Finance (DeFi) platform (SHIB Finance) within the Shiba Inu ecosystem. While the launch date was not disclosed, this development was highlighted to be a significant shift beyond the usual token swapping to full financial services such as lending, borrowing, etc.
According to the post, SHIB Finance would leverage tools like Shib Attestation and Karma Engine, as well as a Privacy Powered Identity layer to create and maintain trust among users. Interestingly, this would be achieved through reputation and activities within the network. In simple terms, SHIB Finance is strategically designed to reward users based on “who they are on the chain rather than what they have.”
Shibarium Updates also summarized the overall provisions of the platform into three key points:
- Reputation-Based Borrowing: Users with verified activities would not need massive collateral to borrow.
- Undercollateralized loans: Institutions or organizations which have been able to build good on-chain standing would be able to obtain funding without the need for higher requirements.
- Advanced Financial Tools: Users would be able to access diverse tools, including saving vaults and synthetic assets.
Amidst the backdrop of this, the Shiba Inu community is optimistic about the potential approval of its exchange-traded funds applications. As discussed earlier, SHIB marketing lead Lucie has highlighted that the strong market presence of the asset and its decentralized nature make it an ETF-worthy asset.
