A developer behind SHIB, a popular meme crypto, has teased plans to boost the Shiba Inu ecosystem with a new decentralized stack coin, CoinDesk reported on Wednesday (July 6).

This is because the protocol had over $ 9 million in cryptocurrencies stolen from its platform following a flash loan attack, which allows traders to borrow unsecured loans by relying on smart contracts instead of third parties.
