However, the SHIB exchange in Kraken is only offered for the SHIB/USD and SHIB/EUR pairs.
Shiba Inu recorded a surge in the wake of the good news. But at the same time, the increase in the price of SHIB was driven by the positive movement of Bitcoin (BTC).
At the time of writing, SHIB is trading at $ 0.00004811 with a jump of over 6% in 24 hours.
