Shib Rollups is now live, as Shiba Inu pushes deeper into blockchain infrastructure with a new platform that lets developers launch their own customizable Layer 2 blockchains on Shibarium.Ā
The announcement, made Thursday, signals Shiba Inuās official entry into the fast-growing Rollups-as-a-Service (RaaS) space, offering dedicated blockchain environments for decentralized applications (dApps).
How Shib Rollups Expands the Ecosystem
The Shib Rollups is powered by Shiba Inuās recently introduced Shib Alpha Layer, a key component of the networkās evolving architecture. This infrastructure is designed to handle transaction sequencing and data coordination across multiple rollups, making it possible for projects to build their own blockchains while still staying connected to the broader Shibarium network.
In a recent podcast, Shiba Inu lead ambassador Shytoshi Kusama described the Shib Alpha Layer as āan exciting piece of technology that weāve been quietly working on for multiple months⦠something thatās really exciting, truly helps us scale.ā

Scalability has always been a sticking point for decentralized platforms. Popular applications often clog shared blockchains, leading to congestion, high fees, and unpredictable performance. By providing isolated blockspace for individual applications, Shiba Inuās new platform helps solve the ānoisy neighborā problem that can affect user experience on other chains.
One standout feature of the Shib Rollup Creator is the ability for developers to choose the token used for gas fees. That means teams can use their projectās own token for transactions, folding the financial layer of their app directly into its infrastructure.
Kusama confirmed how this approach fits into the broader plan, noting, āall of these transactions will end up settling on Shibarium, which makes Shibarium a data availability layer, another huge utility for Shibarium and for Bone.ā
By settling on ShibariumāShiba Inuās own Layer 2 network on Ethereumāprojects inherit Ethereumās security while benefiting from reduced fees and higher throughput at the application layer.

Competing in the Rollups-as-a-Service Market
The launch of the Shib Rollup Creator places Shiba Inu in direct competition with other major RaaS providers and modular blockchain projects. As the blockchain world shifts toward more customizable, application-specific environments, Shiba Inu is now positioned to offer developers tools that can rival those from more established infrastructure players.

Shiba Inuās advantage lies in its massive, global communityāa factor thatās helped it remain one of the most watched ecosystems in crypto. If that energy translates into developer interest, the Shib Rollup Creator could play a central role in the projectās ongoing transformation from meme coin to multi-layered blockchain ecosystem.
The introduction of customizable rollups marks another milestone in that journey, adding new utility to Shibarium and opening the door for a more scalable, application-driven future.
