Kusama mentioned “big news” from TokenPlayAI, Shibarium’s partner and “part of a much larger AI strategy” which the Shiba Inu team has been busy developing for many months now.

The last time Kusama was in touch with the SHIB community on the X platform was May 30, which is almost two weeks ago. Back then, he published several tweets about AI, calling it a major game-changer which the majority of people does not even realise.

He also changed his bio line on the X profile, saying that he was writing “a final white paper exploring Ai, Shib, Shy.” He also stressed that the SHIB team is likely to play a big and important role in “this upcoming new age.”

In the tweet published on Thursday, Shytoshi Kusama also mentioned this whitepaper, promising: “I'll speak more about my view on AI and our partners in an upcoming AI focused whitepaper.”

Several times before, this year, Kusama already disappeared from the public eye on social media. This time, however, the community did not seem worried, anxious, or concerned about his absence as if confident that he is just being quiet for a while as he is busy working on expanding the SHIB ecosystem.

Shib Alpha Layer launches in beta

On Thursday, SHIB developer and Shytoshi’s right hand-man, Kaal Dhairya, published a tweet to announce that the layer-3 solution Shib Alpha Layer has been finally rolled out in a beta version.

It was built with ElderLabs and settled on Shibarium, he revealed. The new product offers single-chain UX, fast and “sky-high” transactions per second, an option to pay gas fees not only in BONE but it other tokens and stablecoins, plug-and-play ShibOS services, etc. Instant bridging & native interoperability is coming soon on it as well.

The ultimate goal of the SHIB team is to build “a world computer where high-performance Web3 dApps thrive without compromise.”

Dhairya stressed that the “meme era” for SHIB and Shibarium ends at this point.
