Shiba Inu’s engagement in charitable activities is not a new development. Previously, the cryptocurrency collaborated with the Manny Pacquiao Foundation, a non-profit organization led by Filipino boxing legend and politician Manny Pacquiao. The foundation has been using Shiba Inu’s blockchain network to improve operations. Pacquiao announced that his foundation would integrate Shiba Inu’s Layer 2 blockchain, Shibarium, to manage its fundraising and other activities more efficiently.

A statement released by the Manny Pacquiao Foundation nоted that Shibarium would be utilized “to better optimize, streamline, and record its activities, including tracking its fundraising and donations, distributing funds, and managing other resources, while externally providing even greater transparency concerning its social good efforts across the globe.”

Shibarium, Shiba Inu’s Layer 2 blockchain, was launched in August 2023 and is designed to run on the Ethereum network. Similar to other Layer 2 solutions, such as Arbitrum and Optimism, it aims to improve transaction speeds and reduce costs.

Jon Sisson, the executive director of the Manny Pacquiao Foundation, highlighted the benefits of Shibarium for the foundation’s work. “Shibarium will аllow us to continue this good work while scaling up operations to help millions more,” he stated.

The foundation has been involved with cryptocurrencies for some time, having accepted SHIB tokens on its website since 2021.

Shiba Inu, known as SHIB, was launched in 2020 as a meme coin to rival Dogecoin (DOGE). It operates on the Ethereum blockchain and has since grown to become the 13th-largest digital asset by market capitalization. Despite its origins as a meme coin, Shiba Inu developed a large following and continues to expand its utility beyond traditional trading. This is demonstrаted by its involvement in charitable initiatives such as the Manny Pacquiao Foundation and the Lead Asia Charity Carnival at Korea Blockchain Week 2024.
