Shiba Inu (CRYPTO: SHIB) has gained around 19% in just two days, with notable crypto analysts remaining optimistic about the meme coin’s price recovery to previous 2024 highs.
What Happened: Shiba Inu recently announced that it has raised 12 million through the sale of its unreleased token, TREAT, to non-U.S. venture capitalist investors, including Polygon Ventures, Mechanism Capital, Animoca Brands and Morningstar Ventures. The fundraising round concluded earlier this month, with each tranche occurring at valuations of $75 million, $100 million, and $200 million, respectively, according to sources close to the matter cited by The Block.
TREAT is the utility and governance token of Shiba Inu’s new privacy-focused Layer-3 blockchain. While this will be the final non-stable token from the Shiba Inu ecosystem, the team plans to introduce another new token called Shi later in 2024.
In a separate development, prominent Shiba Inu developer Kaal Dhairya revealed that there was a temporary Shibarium outage caused by networking issues amongst the validators. However, the network is now back up and running.

Heavily followed crypto analyst Javon Marks recently tweeted about a Hidden Bull Divergence on the nine-hour technical chart, which suggests a potential 69% recovery for Shiba Inu back to its 2024 highs of $0.0000457.
