SHIB team announces “Doggy DAOs” coming soon
According to a recent tweet published by the Shibarium Updates account, the SHIB team plans to introduce DAOs (decentralized autonomous organizations) into the SHIB ecosystem. DAOs will enable the SHIB community to make proposals and vote on important decisions that will shape the SHIB Network State in the future.
The tweet enumerated particular DAOs that are planned to be launched in the future – they will be named after the main tokens that help run the ecosystem: SHIB, BONE, LEASH, and TREAT.

The SHIB DAO will deal with the collective voice of SHIB holders. The BONE DAO will be overseeing issues related to gas fees (paid in BONE) and other matters related to the protocol. The LEASH DAO will be about “ensuring the security and integrity of community assets.” Finally, the DAO based on the most recently launched token TREAT will be focused on “on innovation and resource allocation for community-led projects.”
The tweet underscored that voting via those DAOs will be open to everyone and not only large token holders as it is done on other blockchains. Besides, users will be able to increase their voting power by earning Karma Points through making meaningful contributions. “This ensures true decentralization, preventing financial influence from dominating governance,” according to the announcement.
