Shiba Inu’s lead developer, Shytoshi Kusama, has hinted at a new AI-driven partnership that could shape the future of the ecosystem. This announcement coincides with the launch of key projects, including the Shib Alpha Layer and Position DEX, marking a fresh chapter for the SHIB ecosystem.
Shibarium Ecosystem Advances with Alpha Layer and New Infrastructure
The Shiba Inu ecosystem has entered a new development phase with the rollout of the Alpha Layer. According to ecosystem team member Lucie, the Alpha Layer is expected to offer advanced modularity, privacy, and application-specific environments. Such enhancements are there to facilitate scalability and wider use in Shibarium.
The Shib ecosystem is entering a new phase.
In the latest Spaces, Shytoshi teased a new partnership focused on intelligent infrastructure within Shibarium. Details remain under wraps, but development is already in progress.

This layer will have a name called the TREAT token, which will be the utility/reward token of this layer. It will be used to energize operations through the renovated infrastructure. Besides, the Shiba Inu team provides new, improved developer tools, such as node guides and bridge solutions, that are currently available on the Shibarium Developer Hub.
AI and Gaming Integration Highlighted Through New Alliance
Shytoshi Kusama toed an upcoming strategic alliance that involves AI on the social platform X. Although not much is known at the moment, Al Gos’ positive sources on the ecosystem confirm that there is a partnership involving Shib. Fun and Astra Nova. It has the potential to introduce AI-driven experiences or games that can be used within Shibarium.
The partnership is part of the bigger picture where Shiba Inu is seeking to create smart infrastructure and enhance participant interaction in the blockchain. The new emphasis is within the context of the future of decentralized technology, as Kusama has already commented earlier about artificial intelligence and metaverse aspects.
Also to be launched this month is a decentralized exchange known as Position DEX, to be built on Shibarium. The trading will be recommendable, the farming aspect as well as the community-based incentives will be favored. The development will broaden the decentralized finance (DeFi) network.
BONE-SHIB Pool Supports Token Burns and Reward Programs
Another key element in Shiba Inu’s growth strategy is the support of the BONE-SHIB liquidity pool on ShibaSwap. According to an update from team member @Shibizens, this pool plays a central role in sustaining ShibTorch burns. Users are encouraged to add liquidity to improve burn frequency and transaction incentives.
Attention SHIB HOLDERS
The BONE<>SHIB pool on ShibaSwap (V1 + V2 on Shibarium) is essential for ShibTorch burns.
Here’s why you might want to provide liquidity:
Burns rely on this pool — more liquidity = more consistent SHIB burns

This liquidity mechanism enables SHIB to become more deflationary over time. The recent statistics indicate that the Shiba Inu community burned 1.31 billion SHIB tokens in one campaign. Such undertakings are correlated with the mission of the team to develop a value-driven token economy, which should be sustainable.
Advancements of the ecosystem, such as collaboration, platform releases, and token dynamics, are indicative of a methodic shift towards long-term development and adoption.
