Bone ShibaSwap (CRYPTO: BONE) token within the Shiba Inu (CRYPTO: SHIB) ecosystem has outperformed popular meme coins like Dogecoin (CRYPTO: DOGE) and Pepe Coin (CRYPTO: PEPE), rising by 4% in the last 24 hours.
What Happened: This surge in value comes after Shytoshi Kusama, SHIB lead developer on Monday announced plans to bolster the operations of Shibarium, an upcoming Layer 2 blockchain, by minting the remaining supply of BONE tokens and subsequently renouncing the BONE contract.
At the time of writing, BONE was trading at $1.51, while DOGE was down 3% and PEPE over 7% in the last 24 hours.

This move is crucial in establishing Shibarium’s functionality, as a portion of the BONE tokens will be allocated to validators, the foundational role within the nascent blockchain system.
Within the SHIB community, BONE is assuming an increasingly important role as the launch of Shibarium draws near.
