Shiba Inu Team Advocates for SHIB and BONE in US Digital Asset Reserve
The Shiba Inu ecosystem team is hopeful that the United States government will eventually add SHIB and BONE to its newly established national digital asset reserve, alongside other major cryptocurrencies.
Trump Unveils Multi-Asset Crypto Reserve
Yesterday, President Donald Trump provided a long-awaited update on the U.S. digital asset strategic reserve, clarifying previous speculation regarding its composition. Contrary to expectations, Trump directed the creation of a multi-asset reserve that includes Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL), Cardano (ADA), and XRP (XRP)—some of the most established cryptocurrencies in the market.
Shiba Inu’s Response
Following the announcement, Lucie, marketing lead of the Shiba Inu ecosystem, praised the initiative, describing it as a significant milestone for the crypto industry. She expressed optimism that the U.S. government will eventually expand the reserve to include Shiba Inu ecosystem tokens, particularly SHIB and BONE.
For context, the national digital asset reserve will operate similarly to other strategic reserves maintained by the U.S. government. It involves the acquisition and long-term holding of specific crypto assets, effectively enhancing their legitimacy and credibility while potentially influencing their market value.
White House Crypto Czar Hints at Future Additions
At this stage, it remains uncertain whether additional cryptocurrencies will be included in the reserve. However, David Sacks, the White House AI & Crypto Czar, suggested that the Presidential Working Group on Digital Assets will provide more details in the near future. He hinted at upcoming developments, stating, “More to come.”
A clearer picture may emerge on March 7, when Trump and his team are set to engage with industry leaders during the inaugural Crypto Summit. The event will shed further light on the digital asset reserve and may reveal whether plans are in motion to expand the list of supported tokens.
Shiba Inu Community Seeks Greater Recognition
In parallel, the Shiba Inu community has been working to boost SHIB’s market credibility. Recently, the team launched an initiative to encourage financial institutions to file for spot exchange-traded funds (ETFs) tied to SHIB.
This push comes in response to the growing number of ETF applications for other cryptocurrencies like Solana (SOL), XRP, and Cardano (ADA). Even meme coins such as Dogecoin, Bonk, and Official Trump have pending ETF applications with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
Despite this wave of ETF filings, Shiba Inu has yet to see a single submission linked to SHIB, leading its community to demand action. Interestingly, SHIB stands a strong chance of ETF approval, given that the SEC has previously ruled that meme coins like Shiba Inu do not qualify as securities. This regulatory clarity eliminates a major hurdle, potentially paving the way for a Shiba Inu ETF in the future.
As the crypto landscape evolves, the Shiba Inu ecosystem remains committed to securing a stronger position in the digital asset market—both through government recognition and financial market integration.
