Shiba Inu continues its march to increase the use cases and utility of SHIB, taking its first step into the real world by launching its own food chain.
The launch of the Shiba-themed fast-food follows the announcement by Shiba Inu’s lead developer, Shytoshi Kusama, of a partnership with a decentralized fast-food restaurant chain based in Italy.
Welly’s recently completed a rebrand, adopting blockchain technology to decentralize the fast-food chain. In addition, Welly’s has also made the Shiba Inu dog its new official image. The Shiba Inu Team tweeted;

The Shiba Inu-Themed Restaurant
At the restaurant’s launch, the Shiba Inu team announced that SHIB would be used for payment at the fast-food chain. This real-world application of the meme coin assures higher utility and demand for SHIB tokens.
In addition to the launch of the fast-food joint in Naples, Italy, Welly’s has revealed its plans to expand and open multiple stores in 2022 and 2023. SHIBA holders would also have exclusive access to discounts, rewards, and other perks.
Shytoshi Kusama has also explained that holders of SHIB can participate in the decision-making of Welly’s as it expands by “making choices in the Doggy Dao, purchasing NFTs for exclusive benefits, or just enjoying good food and sharing our vision.”
Announcing that it would stick with Shiba Inu and its ideologies of decentralization, Welly’s announced that it would avoid partnering with “huge centralized conglomerates.”
