The Shiba Inu community embraces Christmas festivities as 2026 is expected to deliver sugarplum gains.
The multi-million strong SHIB Army is celebrating Christmas on X, sharing memes & heart-warming messages to each other.
The festivities on social media were crowned by SHIB Marketing Lead Lucie’s message, hinting at a much needed slower pace during Christmas. “Wishing you calm days, strong faith, and light ahead. We rest, we heal, we build. Together”, – Shibarium’s dev team member said.
SHIB Army’s Christmas: “We Rest, We Heal, We Build”
Moreover, Lucie’s message was followed by SHIB.io’s official account wishing a “merry SHIBmas to the best community in Web3”. Indeed, SHIB Army’s size can easily compete with Dogecoin’s (DOGE), putting Shiba Inu coin in the blue-chip altcoin tier beyond its original meme status.
Then followed SpecialK’s uplifting Christmas message on Discord: “Faith still strong. Markets rest, builders don’t.Shib isn’t done”. Surely, Shiba Inu (SHIB) community’s Discord manager is referring to the mostly unmet expectations in Shiba Inu’s price movement since last year, resulting in a 66.56% deficit in terms of yearly returns.
Most notably in 2025, the balance sheets on Shibarium’s Layer-2 slimmed from $11 million in total value locked (TVL) to $2.28 million now, mostly due to the fall of non-fungible tokens (NFTs), so the on-chain liquidity is now heavily dominated by decentralized exchanges (DEXs) & token swaps instead of digital art marketplaces.
SHIB’s Current Price Status & What’s Next In 2026
Shiba Inu’s price is hibernating at $0.00000722, unable to erase the fifth zero since October 28, 2025. On the other hand, 2026 promises big things for the SHIB Army & the whole Shibarium ecosystem. Over a year ago, Shiba Inu’s developer team raised $12 million to set up a Layer-3 blockchain that would be fully driven by FHE.
An abbreviation for Fully Homomorphic Encryption, the FHE is a cutting-edge security consensus that allows computations without ever decrypting the encrypted data. Taking full custody of their personal data, Web3 dwellers can comfortably sign in & interact with any dApp on the network. Shiba Inu’s Layer-3 is set to drop in late 2026 and is sponsored by Polygon Labs, Animoca as well as several other top-notch fintech companies.
