Shytoshi Kusama, the lead developer, has unleashed a bold vision: an internet invasion powered by Shiba Inu. This audacious plan goes beyond vanity URLs, it has the potential to revolutionize digital identity and make a significant impact in the Web3 landscape.
Partnering with D3, a domain name startup, the Shiba Inu team aims to establish a .shib Top-Level Domain (TLD). Imagine a world where your e-commerce store, personal site, or even email address ends in “.shib”.

Shiba Inu boasts impressive numbers. With over 5.3 billion people using domain names daily, the potential impact is enormous. The internet user base has grown by a staggering 198 million in just a year. Kusama’s vision recognizes this digital landscape’s growth and aims to establish Shiba Inu as a prominent player at its core.
3/ We’re working with @D3inc to #InvadeTheInternet by applying for the .shib TLD. This will allow us to tap into infrastructure that is used by 5.3 BILLION people worldwide. Over the last year the Internet gained 198M new users, the entire crypto market only has 425M users.

Where the Challenge Waits
Conquering the internet is no easy feat. Owning a TLD requires navigating the labyrinthine halls of ICANN, the internet’s gatekeeper. D3 needs ICANN’s approval to establish the .shib domain, and the process is known for its length and rigor.
However, fueled by the passionate Shiba Inu community, D3 remains undeterred. They have already opened early access, allowing Shiba enthusiasts to pre-register their coveted “.shib” names.

Beyond the Buzz: Weighing the Impact
This bold move opens up intriguing possibilities. Could a .shib domain become a badge of honor within the crypto community, a symbol of affiliation and identity? Could it simplify access to Web3 for newcomers, bridging the gap between traditional domains and the decentralized future?
Yet, questions remain. Will ICANN approve the ambitious .shib project? What challenges lie ahead in integrating this new domain into the existing internet infrastructure? And most importantly, will the average internet user embrace the Shibanization of their online lives?
Shiba Inu’s internet invasion is more than just a marketing stunt. It’s a daring experiment in community engagement, digital identity, and Web3 adoption.
