Shiba Inu’s marketing expert Lucie issued a warning to the SHIB community on the X platform about numerous scammers targeting them. She explained how these scammers inadvertently benefit the Shibarium ecosystem. Specifically, Lucie highlighted con artists trying to scam people with the TREAT token, which has yet to be released.
Unintentional Benefits To SHIB Ecosystem
Lucie disclosed that scammers targeting the SHIB community by selling fake TREAT tokens are unintentionally aiding the SHIB and Shibarium ecosystem. She noted that these cybercriminals frequently use the official hashtag for TREAT — #TreatYourself. This, she explained, is advantageous for the X algorithm.
Nevertheless, she emphasized the importance of vigilance, stating in capital letters that the real TREAT token has not been launched yet. To stay informed about actual updates and new releases, Lucie advised the following two leading figures in the SHIB team: Shytoshi Kusama and Kaal Dhairya.

In another recent tweet, Lucie recapped the evolution of the SHIB ecosystem. She noted that SHIB began as a joke but has now grown into one of the largest Web 3.0 communities, with over 1.4 million wallets holding the meme cryptocurrency. SHIB is now the second-largest meme coin by market capitalization, following Dogecoin.
Origins And Growth
Lucie emphasized that an enigmatic founder, Ryoshi, created SHIB, similar to how Satoshi Nakamoto founded Bitcoin. Over the past two years, SHIB has experienced exponential growth, including a massive price surge during the previous bull market. Currently, the team is working on several projects, including creating hubs within the SHIB Metaverse. Although the team has not launched the Metaverse yet, they have released several fascinating video teasers for the community.

Through these warnings and updates, Lucie aims to keep the SHIB community informed and cautious, ensuring they stay safe from scams while celebrating the ecosystem’s growth and potential.
