Shib Alpha Layer Bridge: Streamlining Utility for BONE and TREAT
The Shib Alpha Layer Bridge is now live, introducing a key technical advancement in the Shiba Inu ecosystem. It connects Shibarium’s Layer X to the new Shib Alpha Layer — a Layer X built for focused, high-efficiency operations.
This multi-layer design assigns distinct, non-overlapping roles to the ecosystem’s core tokens: •TREAT becomes the gas token for all in-layer transactions on the Shib Alpha Layer. •BONE remains the exclusive gas token for Shibarium, continuing to power all Layer X operations.
BONE: Still the Engine That Runs Shibarium
Nothing has changed about BONE’s role — and that’s the point. The Shib Alpha Layer Bridge doesn’t replace BONE. It reinforces its position as the gas for Shibarium, where all Layer X settlements and contract executions occur.
Even builders developing on the Alpha Layer still rely on BONE when deploying to Shibarium. It’s the foundation of the network — the token that enables everything else to function.
By moving Layer X gas to TREAT, the architecture becomes more efficient and modular, while BONE’s role stays grounded and essential.
TREAT: Defined Utility on the Alpha Layer
With this bridge, TREAT gains a specific and functional purpose: it fuels all transaction activity inside the Shib Alpha Layer. Whether interacting with dApps, executing micro-transactions, or exploring new use cases, users now require TREAT for all in-layer gas.
This shift transforms TREAT from a reserve token to one with continuous, built-in demand tied directly to a live operational layer.
Why the Bridge Matters
Technically, the bridge uses OP Stack rollups and Elderjs to move assets securely and efficiently. But more importantly, it provides structure: •Developers can now build advanced applications in a dedicated Layer X without passing high fees to users. •Token holders benefit from increased clarity and purpose. •The network becomes easier to scale and more cost-effective to use.
A Smarter Ecosystem
This isn’t about replacing anything. It’s about refining everything. •TREAT is now the gas for the Shib Alpha Layer. •BONE continues as the gas for Shibarium — and remains essential to the system’s core operations.
Clear layers. Clear roles. A more efficient path forward.
