According to CoinMarkerCap, the SHIB coin is ranked 13th globally in terms of the market capitalization. It was created to be a better alternative to its dog-themed peer Dogecoin. The project caught instant momentum.

The developer team of the project has also started real-life Shiba Inu dog rescue missions using donations of the community members.

In the initial days, the project got a kickstart from the tweets of celebrities. Tesla CEO Elon Musk and Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin also tweeted in favor of the cryptocurrency.

SHIB coin started out with a supply of 1 quadrillion but the creator has locked away 50% of it in Uniswap and then later burned the remaining half to Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin.
