The D3 Shib Names smart contract on Shibarium was deployed last week, and the existing SNS smart contract was frozen to be able to capture a snapshot of users, following which their upgraded D3 Shib Names would be sent to their wallets.

Current Shib Name Service (SNS) holders will be among the first to receive their “upgraded” shib names, giving them priority access before the gates open to the public.

Shiba Inu announced a partnership with D3 in December for name tokens poised to become future-proof, interoperable digital identities, including a shot at the coveted “.shib” TLD during the forthcoming ICANN application window.

Shib name tokens represent a user’s single address for everything on Web3. They are a multi-chain, cross-platform identity that allows users to eliminate complex wallet addresses, unify the Web3 experience and manage Web3 infrastructure.

As Web3 gains traction, integration with existing DNS infrastructure is critical to its success. D3 is setting up interoperability between legacy internet and Web3 infrastructure, with a focus on the critical role of DNS in the future of the internet.

Shiba Inu (SHIB) reached 27-month highs of $0.0000456 in today’s trading, becoming the market’s 10th-largest cryptocurrency asset. SHIB is up 53.47% in the last 24 hours and is trading at $0.000040 as of writing time.

Shiba Inu’s market capitalization topped $23 billion, moving closer to the largest dog-themed cryptocurrency, Dogecoin (DOGE), which is presently ranked ninth.
