The Shiba Inu community has launched a petition urging Binance to list Bone ShibaSwap (BONE), a pivotal token within the Shiba Inu ecosystem. The move aims to boost the growth of the ecosystem and enhance the interconnected utility of its tokens – SHIB, BONE and LEASH.
The Shiba Inu team is hoping for another successful petition
Lucy (@LucieSHIB), Shiba Inu Marketing Director, Announce Today’s petition for X, emphasizes the collective benefits of all owners within the ecosystem. She stressed that supporting BONE is not limited to just one token, but rather about “the health and growth of the entire Shib ecosystem.” Lucy highlighted that every SHIB holder benefits from BONE’s success because BONE powers the Shibarium.
“Every Shib holder benefits from Bone’s success. Why? Because bone strengthens the Shibarium, and every transaction on the Shibarium burns the Shibarium. The more Bone is used, the more Shibarium is used – and the more Shib is burned, reducing supply and increasing potential value for all owners. Support Bone directly supports Shib’s contraction mission
She also noted that LEASH holders should care about BONE’s success. LEASH represents exclusivity and rewards within the ecosystem, and the success of Shibarium and BONE brings more interest and use cases for all three tokens.
“Bone’s successful solicitation shows key exchanges, projects and investors that the Shib ecosystem isn’t limited to just one token – it’s a thriving ecosystem where Shib burns, exclusive Lash and Bone Utility all work together. This kind of exposure brings new holders and opportunities for all tokens,” Lucy added. “The three.”
The petition, written by SHIB team member Mazrael Leashtenant on Change.org, directly calls on Binance to list BONE, focusing on its essential role in transaction processing, network security, and community governance within the Shiba Inu ecosystem. He describes BONE as the gas token for Shibarium, a layer 2 solution designed for fast, secure, and low-cost transactions. With a total supply of 250 million tokens, BONE is essential for paying gas fees, executing transactions, and supporting decentralized functions within the network.
The petition notes that BONE holders can delegate their tokens to decentralized validators, ensuring the safety and security of network transactions. As a governance token, BONE allows its holders to participate in shaping the future of the ecosystem through proposals and votes. “BONE is integral to many decentralized applications, DeFi, Play-to-Earn (P2E) games, and privacy-focused DApps, and is central to the expanding Shiba Inu ecosystem,” the petition notes.
Shibarium, the ecosystem’s second layer of blockchain, is said to have more than 1.8 million wallet addresses and has processed 540 million transactions. It supports decentralized exchanges and games, and offers advanced tools like symmetric encryption for privacy-focused applications like Shibdentity and ShyMode.
BONE is available across multiple platforms, including the ShibaSwap DEX, where users can buy it directly with fiat currencies or other cryptocurrencies, and centralized exchanges such as MEXC, HTX, OKX, Crypto.com, and Gate.io. The petition argues that listing BONE on Binance will strengthen the entire ecosystem by making the token more accessible, benefiting users, developers and businesses by fostering more decentralized innovation.
Notably, the Shiba Inu community has a history of effectively using petitions to advocate for exchange listings and improve the ecosystem. In early 2021, concerted efforts led to SHIB being listed on Coinbase Pro, significantly boosting its visibility and market capitalization. A subsequent widespread petition contributed to its listing on Robinhood in April 2022, expanding trading access.
As of press time, the petition has 75 signatures. Lucy concluded her message with a rallying call: “Let’s show the world the power of our unity and make sure Shep, Boone and Leech reach their full potential. Together we rise!”
At press time, SHIB was trading at $0.00002602.
