Shiba Inu (SHIB) will launch an ETF later this year, aiming to attract traditional and institutional investors to its ecosystem. The ETF is expected to boost demand for BONE, a native governance token used for staking and voting, while driving the popularity of the Shibarium Layer-2 blockchain. Shibarium is built on Optimism's OP Stack, which has reduced transaction costs by up to 90%, making it very attractive to dApps. Despite market volatility, Shiba Inu's TVL grew 12% last month, reflecting active community participation. The ETF is awaiting regulatory approval and it may set a precedent for meme-based crypto projects seeking institutional capital.
