The Shiba Inu Layer-2 blockchain, Shibarium, has been integrated into the Bitget Wallet, which serves over 40 million users worldwide. This development highlights a significant step for the SHIB ecosystem, offering users access to advanced blockchain features.
Shibarium Added to Bitget Wallet Without Official Announcement
Shibarium has been quietly integrated into the Bitget Wallet by the platform’s team. This addition was made without an official announcement from Bitget. Instead, the update was shared by the Shibarium Update channel on X, where a screenshot confirmed the new blockchain support.
Although Shibarium has been integrated into the wallet, it has not yet been supported by the Bitget exchange itself. This distinction has been emphasized to ensure clarity for the Shiba Inu community.
Shibarium Integration Benefits the SHIB Ecosystem
The integration of Shibarium into the Bitget Wallet is expected to deliver significant benefits for the SHIB ecosystem. Users of Bitget Wallet now have the ability to store, transfer, swap, and stake Shiba Inu ecosystem assets seamlessly.
As a non-custodial wallet launched in 2018, Bitget Wallet provides a secure platform for trading, earning, and staking crypto assets. Its 40 million users spread across 168 countries offer substantial potential for boosting Shibarium’s activity.
This development coincides with recent milestones achieved by Shibarium, including surpassing 2 million wallet interactions and exceeding 600 million transactions. Current metrics show a total transaction count of 641.18 million and a daily transaction volume of 4.66 million.

Shibarium Gains Limited Adoption on Top Platforms
Despite its achievements, Shibarium remains supported by only a few leading wallets and exchanges. Currently, Gate.io and BluBit are among the prominent exchanges that have adopted Shibarium.
Wallets like Frontier and GroveX have also integrated Shibarium, while MetaMask users can access it using the Chainlist feature. However, major platforms like Binance, Coinbase, and Ledger have yet to offer support for Shibarium.
Community members of Shiba Inu continue to advocate for broader adoption, urging these leading platforms to embrace Shibarium. Their efforts to push for integration remain active on social media.

The addition of Shibarium to the Bitget Wallet is a milestone for the SHIB ecosystem. With access to over 40 million users, the integration is poised to enhance Shibarium’s adoption and activity. As the SHIB community continues to call for broader support, further integration into major platforms may drive even greater success for the blockchain.
