Exploring the possible reasons why ShibaSwap’s $BONE token has experienced a seemingly bullish trend.
ShibaSwap is a Decentralized Exchange (DEX) backed by the Shiba Inu memecoin, operating on the Ethereum blockchain. With ShibaSwap, you can swap tokens, trade unique digital assets known as Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs), and even earn rewards.
One of the core parts of ShibaSwap is its native token called $BONE. This token helps run the platform and determines how rewards are given out. With $BONE, users can provide liquidity and stake on ShibaSwap to earn rewards and trade Shiboshis (Shiba Inu NFTs).
Remarkably, in the last week, $BONE's price has jumped almost 10% even though the overall crypto market is down. Moreover, trading volume for $BONE has spiked by over 30% in just the last 24 hours, according to CoinMarketCap.
It is also worth noting that $BONE is up by over 300% from its All Time Low (ATH) in 2022 and down by 96% from its All Time High of $41.67 in 2021. As of publication, the token is currently trading at $1.34.
The big question is the factors affecting the token’s surge in the crypto space. Let's dive into some possible reasons:
First up is the upcoming launch of ShibaSwap 2.0, which was announced in April 2023. Shytoshi Kusama, the lead developer behind the Shiba Inu project, revealed that this new version will include a new "liquidity mining" feature.
This will reward users who lock up their $BONE tokens in the platform. The promise of rewards seems to have stoked interest in $BONE, pushing its price upward.
Shiba Inu, the meme coin that gave birth to ShibaSwap and $BONE, has been gaining popularity. As more people get drawn to Shiba Inu, interest in $BONE has naturally followed, seen as a kind of sibling token to the headline-grabbing meme coin.
Another exciting development is the highly anticipated Shibarium blockchain that aims to make transactions faster and cheaper within the Shiba Inu ecosystem. The buzz around this has likely contributed to $BONE's recent gains.
While these factors could continue to prop up $BONE's price, it's crucial to remember that the crypto market is highly volatile. $BONE's price could swing wildly in either direction. If you're thinking about investing, make sure you understand the risks and Do Your Own Research (DYOR).
It's tough to pinpoint precisely why $BONE is experiencing this uptick. Yet, the upcoming features of ShibaSwap 2.0, the rise in Shiba Inu's popularity, and the anticipation surrounding Shibarium all serve as plausible explanations. Only time will tell where $BONE's price will land, but for now, these factors offer some interesting insights.
